TORTILLA PINWHEELS

These tortilla pinwheels are such an easy thing to whip up if you need a quick appetizer. I’ve created two recipes below which you can follow or change up with your own ideas! I love this appetizer because you can essentially customize it in multiple ways. Also this can be more than just an appetizer – makes a great lunch or snack in general!

I have to be honest with you – these guys do not photograph well! I haven’t encountered this often but I promise they are more delicious than they seem – especially the spinach smoked salmon (my fav!). Don’t judge a book by its cover!

CHOCOLATE DESIGN SHAPES DIY

You may have started to catch on that I like entertaining…particularly entertaining with ways that add pizzazz and are easy to do!  I’m not sure if it’s just me but I tend to put in so much effort into the appetizers and main dish that I prefer to have a quick easy dessert to serve – usually a pie my husband picks up from our local bakery or some yummy ice cream. Although it totally works and is delicious, I always feel like I want to add on my personal touch (while still keeping it simple – entertaining can be a lot of work!).

Introducing……CHOCOLATE DESIGN SHAPES!  They are so simple to do, can be made ahead of time (my favourite phrase I think) and add that extra touch to a simple dessert.

VALENTINE’S NIGHT WITH THE GIRLS

I love me a kick-ass girl’s day but it definitely does not happen enough! I feel like February is the perfect time to plan a day together, whether it consists of hosting a Galentine’s Day party or just gathering on the couch for one epic V-Day night. Don’t stress if you cannot do it near the 14th  – anytime throughout the month will work! If it’s after the 14th you get the bonus of discounted candy/chocolate – hint hint. Having everyone together is always so much fun therefore whenever you can make this happen is great!
