Our plan is to have a cozy, cuddly night in - watching New Girl and devouring seasonal sweet treats from two of my favourite bakeries, Crave and Duchess. If those names sound familiar to you, it's because I've extolled their delicious virtures: here, here, and here.
Both shops are offering an assortment of mouth-watering delectables that I'm not about to pass on (no matter how I feel about a day that seems to force romance on the masses.)
Prepare to drool, peeps.
Crave Cookies and Cupcakes

Crave has other delicousness up their sleeve. They're offering sugar cookie "love letters" with custom messages written on them. I'd get "Ja te volim" and "Ko te pito" written on mine - which mean "I love you" and "Who asked you?" in Croatian. Two of the first phrases I taught Scotty to say.

And the sweets in the tea cup? Remember eating Red Hots as a kid? They're cinnamon heart meringues!
So, do you celebrate Valentine's Day? Will you and your sweetie be out on the town or are you staying in and canoodling? I'd love to hear your take on the day between February 13 and 15.
Hope you're having a fantastic Wednesday!
Dajana (:
Oooh...these treats look so good.
ReplyDeleteI'm party of one [sigh] so my Valentine's Day "celebration" may look a little different than most, but last year two of my closest girlfriends and I got together for a night in of girl time and goodies ;) We plan to do it again this year so I'm kinda looking forward to it!
That sounds like fun, Amy!
DeleteI think the key thing (on any given day) is to spend time with the people you love and those that love you. It doesn’t necessarily have to be someone you’d canoodle with. (;
You’re going to have a grand ol’time with your ladyfriends… especially if you serve that amazing mango stilton cheese.
They all look delicious!
ReplyDeleteBy the way I gave you an award on my blog so check it out :)

That was really sweet of you to do, Hilary! Many thanks, lady. (:
DeleteBeautiful! Those look gorgeous and TASTY! I may have to pass this on to my husband as a hint. :)
ReplyDeleteI think that's a great idea, Hannah. Scrumptious gifts are the best.
Deletep.s. I'm going to try your super bowl bean dip this weekend. (:
Mmmmm....Mmmmm...Mmmmm... That's all I can say!
ReplyDeleteDon't they look scrumptious, Kat? Let's go to Duchess on our next coffee date. I think Brody needs to be introduced to macarons and scones and meringues! (;
DeleteLooks mouth watering! We should definitely go there. Probably Saturday or Sunday because they are closed Monday. Or maybe after work. I've never been there but heard a lot and even have GC to use.
DeleteAlice and I want to come too!! She's drooling over here. Ok, she's always drooling but I'm sure this time it's cause of all these yummies!!
DeleteLet's introduce all of the babes (including Kat) to Duchess!
DeleteI'll text you both a possible date. (:
