    I just sent the Mr. off to work with all the sweet treats in our house in an attempt to rid the house of all the sugary temptations. . .then this pops across my screen and I suddenly find myself craving cake once again. The red velvet cakey cookies hugging that dreamy cream is just too much to resist. But since Valentines Day is just around the corner. . .it’s okay to give in, isn’t it? 😉
