HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!!!!

Happy Valentines Day! I believe this is the one day in which you have a Good excuse to eat food that  you would not normally eat.  Chocolate,
Candy, Cake, literally everything sweet.

Everyone is looking forward to this day like the Gym, Weight Watchers, Jenny Craig, Fitness groups, because the next day people are feeling guilty and high tail it to all of these groups.

But in the mean time, I must share this great recipe  with you.  It's an easy one to make from scratch:

Ingredients:

3 cups of sifted self rising flour

2 sticks of butter

2 cups of sugar

1tsp. vanilla or lemon flavoring

1 cup of milk

4 eggs

I enjoy keeping things simple, I think your love ones appreciate you being real with them and for them.  You can easily go out and buy a large cake with lots of flowers but it doesn't have the same affect as you get when someone takes their time to bake you a cake and maybe craft you  card that says I love you.

The frosting on my cake was made very simple with Pillsbury vanilla frosting I find that when you warm it in the microwave or heat it on the stove, melts it down and you can pour it over your cake and it will make a nice glaze, that is not as heavy ad the spreadable frosting.

There ate many ways you could decorate this heart shaped cake. If you have a pastry bag you may want to make roses, or you could put on fresh strawberries or simply any thing you like. Just go for it!
