Valentine Baking Marathon

Last week was a baking marathon for Allison.  Powdered sugar, cake mixes, food coloring, sprinkles, cocoa, candies, cupcake papers, and strawberries filled my grocery list and threatened to overtake our food budget.  But Allison's creations were a delight to behold and tasty to eat!

These first cupcakes were baked for a friend's birthday and are topped with a raspberry candy.

What's Valentine's day without decorated cookies?
Baked for Adventures kids aged 3 years to grade 3.  They love Allison now!

Valentine's Day (or week in our case) should be a time of loving others.  I love that Allison uses her gifts to bless others!
