I have made cute little favor boxes with truffles inside to take to Outback Steakhouse tonight along with my homemade Chocolate Marbled Almond Cheesecake!! Mine won't look this pretty but it will taste yummy! This recipe is out of one of my favorite and well loved cookbooks Land -O- Lakes cookbook... you know it isn't going to be low anything with Land O Lakes in the name! Look I found a link...

Guess my creative juices are flowing again! Thank goodness. I feel like I have been in a funk for quite awhile not wanting to do anything! I think Valentine's Day was a surprise for me when I didn't do a thing. No cards, nothing for the kids or my husband for that matter. I am usually so with it when it comes to these things! Luckily I have an awesome husband who stepped up and had presents for the kids and of course me!
So I made a an effort... although notice I am not cooking dinner tonight... didn't want to go too far! Thanks to my mom it was her wonderful idea to go to Outback! Good thing Michael doesn't read my blog... he might have learned of our plans before tonight!
And his presents... they go with our family goals! Won't spoil yet but they will be used when we explore this year! We have made a list of things we want to go see and do and I am hoping his presents will be of great use! I think he will like them.
How am I doing so far on this blog thing?? It's kinda fun!
Love it, Pam! The blog thing is kind of fun - a different 'scrapbooking' of sorts, an alternative way to document the family's history :-)
