20 Days

Today marks 20 days till school is out for the semester! 
So I decided to write 20 things that I'm excited for starting with FIVE.

ONE: I'm so excited to go to the lake! LAKE POWELL here I come! It's so fun at Lake Powell because of all the family there and all of the fun we have together! Homemade Lemonade, Warm Water, Hot Sun, It's just perfect!




TWO: To see Lance whenever I want! No more driving just on the weekends 2 1/2 hours. No more long distance. CHECK! 




THREE: To work at Wright Orthodontics again! I'm so excited to be an assistant in the new office! I miss the staff and seeing everyone that comes in the office. So excited for the change.




FOUR: To hopefully get a tan! Baha.. Such a wish, but I'm going to try! I usually get tan pretty fast but then go back to pasty about a week later!




FIVE: Seeing trucks everyday! I miss my hometown dearly. So excited to get home to Vernal.




That's my 5/20!
What are you excited for this Summer?

Valentines Day Cookie Recipes

For some reason, I've found SO MANY cute cookie recipe's for Valentines day this year and wanted to share and compile some of the ones I thought you could make easy or just some that I thought were super cute!

1. Heart Sandwich Cookies
Martha Stewart Living, February 2013
The pink hearts are made from a sugar-cookie dough; the chocolate hearts are a little denser. These charming sandwich cookies contain a filling that will remind you of an Oreo. It's creamy, but granulated sugar gives it a tender crunch.



2. Brownie Hearts &
 
Brownie Bites
After you cut out the hearts, roll the brownie leftovers into bite-size morsels. Once coated with cocoa or sugar, they resemble truffles. You'll get about 44 bites.
  1. 3.Chocolate Heart Peanut Butter cookies
    from Betty Crocker
    ( I honestly was just loving the dove chocolate heart Idea. You could totally use the pre made peanut butter cookie dough from the drug store! SUPER EASY!)

    4. PINK Peanut Butter hugs

    • 5. Chocolate Sweet Hearts
    These crisp, delicate cookies have less than 50 calories each. Swap in different cookie cutters for other occasions; adjust the baking time accordingly.

    • Hope you enjoy browsing through these recipes and hopefully make some! Let me know how they turned out for you if you do! These are the cookies I've chosen to make for Valentines Day. 
      • Thanks for dropping by my blog and listening to, 
      • The Ramblings of Robin. :) Happy Baking!
