Ok crafters, fellow bakers, and hobbyist alike. It's February which for most people means it's Valentine's day but for me it's all about my birthday. I recently got back from an awesome international vacation so this month (although short) has been very busy. Before jumpin' on a jet plane (maybe it wasn't technically a jet?) I did do a little baking to share the love . Specifically I sent my youngest niece and nephews a first class package of love. And no it's wasn't a dick in a box (SNL references rock!). What else says your tia loves you than the fact that she spent the night before her birthday trip baking and packaging your valentine gift? NOTHING!!!!

In my mind a wee box calls for wee treats so I decided to use my favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe but make it miniature by baking the cookies in my mini-muffin tins. Also FYI you can also use your waffle to make quick cookies if you have some frozen cookie dough left over once you get back from your international vacation. Not that I did that... not at all.

So this is just a quick post b/c I'm recovering from my trip and trying to get back into the swing of my normal life. I'm going to try to post about something savory next week... I made some lentil soup and some chili a while back but didn't think about getting out my camera during the process. Mostly I was thinking about finishing so the food could get in my belly.

Happy crafting/baking/art making.
