This morning the weather was a little "iffy".......not so conducive to working outside so we decided to take a little drive and do some exploring. We headed up by "our" beautiful little Sugar Pine Lake. We checked out some interesting acreage for sale up there.......40 acres, so we had a nice little hike. We would love to have more land, but we just don't see how we could do it right now.......still it's fun to dream and hopefully we'll figure out how to get there before we're too old to do it!!! After drudging around we headed back to the Lake and had a picnic........inside our car!! Hey....it was really cold and wet!
When we got back home I decided to start on Valentine's Day goodie making. As you can see, I made the traditional Heart cookies........I hope I see some of the "kids" this weekend to give them some..........also made some dark chocolate almond bark....yummmm! The little wooden bowl that the roasted nuts are in was made by my wonderful friend Brad Thode........he sent it for my birthday......isn't it beautiful?
He made it out of a solid piece of Maple .........thanks again , Brad!
Tonight we're looking forward to the NBA Rookie Challenge featuring Tyreke Evans and Omri Casspi of the Sacramento Kings!! Also excited about the Olympics Opening Ceremony tonight.
It's 5:15 right now and it's not quite dark out.......longer days right around the corner!
