Walk into my foyer and wrap yourself in sweet valentine wishes.
Postcards from the turn of the 20th Century adorn my flocked Valentine Tree.
Turn into the study for some digital inspirational graphics.
Travel to my kitchen. Do you smell the aroma of cookies baking?
I honor the first two generations of Italian bakers in my family and their valentine cookie cutters in the Note of Love poem below.
My 4-year-old granddaughter now makes the fifth generation of women bakers
who rolls the dough and carefully places cookies on a baking sheet for family delights.

It's Tuesday Slice of Life, the day after Valentine's Day this week.
I join Two Writing Teachers, a Meeting Place for Reflective Teachers,
with Valentine greetings for all.
Carol, it is so wonderful that your granddaughter is following in the footsteps of those bakers who came before her. She has a guide who will show her all of the secrets and share delicious recipes with her. I also like the idea of your Valentine tree. What a great way to display vintage as well as new Valentine wishes.
ReplyDeleteI am delighted that Granddaughter #1 is so invested in our baking tradition. I even bought her small baking tools for Christmas. The little 2-year-old just loves to bring the step stool over to the counter to watch and of course, to get a lick of the dough.
DeleteThis is wonderful! I love seeing your family's tradition moving into a new generation. (And those cookies look delicious!)
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing my joy. The brownie peanut butter truffle cake turned out to be a heavenly treat.
DeleteYour post has such a strong happy Valentine vibe. Cheers to bakers of all generations.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by to grab some Valentine cheer, Terje.
DeleteI adore this flocked Valentine tree! My granddaughter would love it. You always inspire me to creative and beautiful things, Carol. And I celebrate your baking legacy with the fifth generation!
ReplyDeleteFran, I missed your comment last week. Granddaughters are so special and now you have two to light up your heart. Have a heart-filled day. I'm off to add my slice to Two Writing Teachers.
