Last Minute Valentines Ideas

 

So it’s the afternoon before Valentines Day and the fancy restaurants are all booked, you forgot to buy a love token for your sweetheart and tomorrow is shaping up to be a very bad day indeed.

But fear not, as long as you’ve got some heart-shaped cutters or moulds lying around all sorts of quick homemade Valentines ideas are at your disposal.

These Valentines sugar cookies were originally on sale through Etsy shop Sugar Sanctuary but really wouldn’t be too difficult to make.  Here’s a great sugar cookie recipe.

Suze has a great tutorial for how to make natural sugar hearts in candy moulds for your beloved’s coffee.

For a romantic dinner Annie suggests making four cheese ravioli

 

 

Or if you don’t have heart-shaped cutters, why not do twirly things with cinnamon rolls?

 

 

Or if you have cutters but no cooking skills, how about some heart-shaped roast potatoes?

 

 

Or a heart-shaped packed lunch?

 

 

Finally, if you have neither heart-shaped cutters nor cooking skills, why not just put your toddler to work instead, while you relax with a lovely cup of tea.

 

 

Happy Valentines’ Day my little chickadees!
