Ok...I Think I'm Done Now!

It's 2:00am Thursday morning and I'm still up! I've been busy as a bee since Wednesday afternoon getting things ready to put in the RV, shopping, baking, delivering early Valentine's Day treats (since we won't be home this weekend), doing laundry, addressing Valentine cards, making out a last minute grocery list, etc., etc., etc. The only thing left to do is gather up my clothes and I'll be ready to roll. Howard will be so proud of me (when he gets up in 3 hours!) and sees that I'm organized and ready to go. Usually I'm running around, scrambling at the last minute to get things done, but then again, I've always been working so you have to factor exhaustion into the equation. I have to admit, being off work these last few months has allowed me to be more organized than ever, and life has been pretty much stress free (as stress free as it can be when you have a broken ankle). It's been a welcomed relief.

When we go on these RV trips, I like to have things pretty much done prior to leaving if possible. I want to be able to relax, enjoy the company, and not be pressured to get things done. Lord knows, cooking meals is pressure enough. I knew I wanted to bring goodies to friends with it being Valentine's Day weekend so I did all of my baking and gift assembling before hand. Here are a few of the treats I'll be giving to friends.

Cupcakes, all packaged up pretty and ready to go...



I also made 7 big heart chocolate chip cookies. Actually I made more than 7 but threw out the first batch because I think the flour was old. I put each cookie in a big baggie, put a cute personalized sticker and ribbon on it, and now they're ready to go.


I'm also bringing "sundaes", remember these...


I wish you all lived close enough so that I could bring you one of these Valentine's Day treats, because I HEART you! All of you!
