I think my days for exchanging Valentine's Day cards
have truly passed, however I do really like the sentiment of Valentine's. The little men in my life will always put wonderful
effort into making me the most beautiful cards to treasure. In
return, I will normally have a treat of some love heart shaped food to mark the
day for them. They adore French Toast so these love heart shaped toasties
are amorously welcomed on Valentine's morning.

I adore her apron Nessa. Gorgeous.
I'm with you we are far beyond exchanging cards but we do mark the day with the kids with heart shaped treats. Hope you're well. x
All good here! I love that little apron too. I really should of ironed it! I only noticed how creased it was after the pics were taken. :)
Real cooks have wrinkled aprons. Never iron an apron! The French toast is a lovely idea for the kids before they head out to school. Great photos!
Thanks! Well very little is ironed in this house. It's always the last job on my list! :)
Love this and think I might do this
And your daughter is super pretty in her little apron!

What a sweet idea for French toast! I love your daughters apron! She looks like she takes her work seriously too!
Have a wonderful week!
I stopped ironing with child number four. He, ironically is the only one of my now adult kids who ever wears anything ironed. And because of you...I will make heart shaped French toast tomorrow for my GK's!
Thanks Ladies. I'm sure the children will love it!
That's very funny Donna. Hopefully some of mine go a similar route and then they might even do their Mammy's ironing. :)
