FORTUN-ate Valentines


FIRST:  This post is all messed up thanks to the new version of blogger I didn't intend to switch to.  SORRY!  Thanks to being lost in Pinterest one evening I saw step by step instructions for making fortune cookies.  Really, one can make them in their kitchen?  That was what went through my head.  Of course I could, it looked simple.  I gathered supplies including finally having a really good reason to need a silpat.  I don't regret getting it either.  It took me weeks to get to finally make them and I was thinking they'd make fun valentines.  Well Sam fell in love with them and the idea.  So his valentines were born.  Granted I did all the work but that is nothing new.  I can now say I have successfully learned how to make fortune cookies and honestly it's not that hard.  Sam loved delivering them as well.
These could be little pac-man guys!
Cooking up the last bunch, a bit sloppy by that point.

Slips that were inside the fortunes.

All packaged and ready to go.

Holding his box of goods.  He really was excited even if it doesn't look it. :)  Dog bite on teh cheek and all!

They turned out so good! I had fun making them, too - this makes me want to try them again sometime. That's such a fun idea for custom valentines.
