As I mentioned previously, a fan of Valentine's Day I ain't.
Having said that... as one of my resolutions to enjoy my life, I decided to celebrate all of the holidays that I don't normally celebrate. Some, because I just haven't done so. And some because I have absolutely no right to be celebrating them (mainly because I'm not Mexican, Jewish, American and etc).
When I say celebrate, what I really mean is make some yummy food decorated in the style of the holiday in question. To me, there's something about food that brings people together and makes people happy. A lot of my happiest family memories go hand in hand with tasty treats.
All of the above is just an attempt to not come across like a hypocrite when I show you the crunchy, glittery cookies I made for Valentine's Day.
The cookies themselves are a simple, buttery, crunchy biscuit iced with a pinky red icing and some edible glitter. They were delish although they didn't last long unfortunately!!
I'm not really sure why I'm calling them cookies rather than biscuits. Adding a touch of glamour to the proceedings, perhaps?!

Happy Monday!
It's a lovely day here, not least because it's Monday and I'm on holiday!
I have a couple of things that I hope to achieve this week but, my main goal is to get my life together. That sounds like a monumental task but I really need to focus on myself, what I want from my life and how I hope to get there.
I'll keep you posted.
This is my delicious Monday breakfast of decaf coffee and a red onion and chive bagel! Yum!
