Love Love Love Valentine's Day! I'm checking in early as I have a BIG Texas "Thank You" for the delightful surprise that arrived in yesterday's mail! The best I could do was "pay it forward", so I packed the little take out boxes with chocolates that I made the other day and took them to three neighbors with an invitation to dinner weekend-after-next. Within our cul-de-sac, we'll be celebrating two birthdays, a 50th Wedding Anniversary, Valentines (belatedly) and Chinese New Year (as one family is Vietnamese)!
...should make for some interesting dinner choices... I'll have fun with that!
@maggiemae Thanks, Maggiemae! Ken and I are the lucky recipients to have the friendship of good neighbours...we both love to cook together and baking and desserts are my forte!
This is just lovely! And you made these. Wow Louise. Just wow.
Though this is a different pic - I have to let you know I spied you squirrel at work today and she made me giggle out loud. Happy Valentine's Day in advance!
You are truly amazing Louise, I can't imagine making anything like these chocolates, they look so yummy. And I'd have a nervous breakdown catering for a dinner like that, something I'm not good at at all.
Awww, you are welcome! Valentine’s is one of my very favorite times of the year! ❤️ Your chocolates look amazing, so not only are you an artist, you are also a chocolatier! Your dinner party will be fabulous, of course. This is The Year of the Dog for the Chinese, you can have some fun with that, I know!
The chocolates look fabulously mouthwatering and you have presented then in a lovely Valentine way - just makes Me Smile! How lovely for your friends to receive their box of delights along with your invitation! I love a dinner party sitting down with friends enjoying good food - doesn’t matter what it is! It’s the conversation and laughter that I love and I know your party will be full of both! Oh I wish I lived in your cul-de-sac - now wouldn’t that be fun! Fav!
You made those?? I so need to get on a plane and come and visit you!! Love the idea of the meal for so many celebrations together. Have fun planning that!

I wish I could use a BIG FONT to send you all a HUG and THANKS and wish you a very happy Velentine's Day!!!
