Growing up, I always loved it when my mom made cookies for us on Valentine’s Day. It was something special that we really looked forward to each year. Sometimes she would forgo the cookies and make a heart shaped cake instead. But the cookies were always my favorite. It is a tradition I have carried on. In fact, I made them for my boys today. I even took a dozen over to my parents. It brought a smile to everyone’s face and also to their tummies.
