Menu Made with Love

Raspberry Chocolate Banana Bread, Strawberry Shortcake Cookies, Cherry Garcia Ice Cream & More...

As soon as January ended I had the urge to make everything that I made pink…and heart shaped. Like today I ate cottage cheese (attempted to make them heart shaped) pink raspberry pancakes for breakfast + sipped on a strawberry matcha latte. Pink sourdough with a lot of butter and flakey sea salt for second breakfast. I need help, but I am also fully embracing it.

So now that it is the Sunday before Galentines & Valentines day (excited but also don’t want this phase to end…), I had to share my pink-heart-shape-ified full menu.

AND ALSO: today marks the day we are officially honoring ~making people food~ as a love language. I don’t know how it hasn’t been up to this point! To me the most rewarding thing is putting love into a meal for someone you love, and seeing their reaction. So no matter who you are spending the week with, your gal-friends, your boy-friends, your fam, or best of all yourself, you will put a smile on someone’s face.
