February Festivities

Just when you think winter is almost over, we finally get some snow! Today we had our first snow day of the season. It really is a nice break from the regular routine to have an unexpected day off. Enjoy the hot chocolate and movie time everyone.

In other news... tomorrow is Valentine's Day. I heart this special day! To get things rolling in the red and pink direction.. I made cake pops for my 9th grade ladies at church. Ashlyn did jump in and help with the decorating and I think they turned out very festive.

Also, by special request, I made a batch of my gooey cookies. I don't know what they are really called but they are addictive. I made this bunch lemon and they were sinfully yummy.

Gooey Cookies

One box of any flavor cake mix

One package of cream cheese

One egg yolk

One tsp of vanilla

Mix all the ingredients together until you form a ball of dough. Roll into small balls. Bake at 350 degrees for 8-12 minutes. You want the outside to be baked until lightly brown or firm. The inside should be gooey. I like to shake powdered sugar on the top of the cooling cookies. So easy and so delicious!
