Spring is coming!



We took advantage of the warming weather, and did a little bird watching on Valentine's Day this year. After taking in the sights at our local nature preserve, we headed home for a bird inspired meal, with a "Whoooo loves you?" theme. Spaghetti is very easy to manipulate into nests, and I rolled out a few meatball "eggs" to go in them. Served along with "grass" beans, "tree" broccoli, and a heart cut out of Pillsbury pizza dough, our day was tied together with one very easy meal. Afterwards, we exchanged Valentine's and made these great owl cupcakes together. Can't think of a better way to spend love day!
