Writing about all the big & little things

Food Friday: Valentine’s Day (& Strawberry Pie)!

We love Valentine’s Day here!  So we’ve been living it up ~ although I’m starting to repeat myself a bit so you’ll probably notice some things that you’ve seen before.  😉  If it’s still fun, why go through more work of trying to find new stuff, right?

For breakfast:  pink heart shaped pancakes with whipped topping, strawberries and chocolate drizzle.  Messy but oh, so good.

  

Then we moved on to a fun “I spy” worksheet and a cute card (each kid picked a name to write about another person)…

  

I even made Valentine’s for each student today…

For Lunch we had:  Pink mac & cheese with heart shaped hot dogs, pink powerade and grapes/strawberries.  No I didn’t take the time to cut the strawberries or grapes into anything.  I do have my limit you know.  😉  I also didn’t take a picture because they ate it too fast.  Ha!

Then I made a strawberry pie for Tim…

And for supper we’ve having heart shaped pizza (compliments of Tim).

For today’s recipe I’m putting up the one for the Strawberry Pie.  Very delicious, and quite simple.  The only catch is you have to stir it constantly for 10 min.  That’s a little frustrating for me when I’m trying to do multiple things at once… But other than that–it’s very easy.  Oh, and I use my amazing veggie chopper to make quick work of the strawberries.  I like to cube them up to mix with the sugar.  I feel like it helps break everything down faster.

    Looks like you made it a very special day again. It always makes me feel so good when you celebrate Valentine’s Day the way it should be celebrated (in my opinion!)
