Well... Today has been a bit of a doozie.
I've been couch ridden with a pretty awful migraine,
and unfortunately for me we have a teething toddler and a teething infant,
so not really a quiet day for mama, but that's alright now.
All of the Calendar Kids are in bed and The Duke is being super awesome
and tackling the mountains of folding that I was unable to get to like I wanted today.
Not only is he doing that, but he also was instrumental in making this post happen.
He reminded me that we're a team and that anything we take on
work, children, and even blogs.
So, I dedicate this post to him,
my wonderful, loving, amazing husband, and teammate.
Today was
National Chocolate Covered Cherry Day
and I was half tempted to tell him to skip the drama of making them
from scratch and hit up the Valentine's Day candy that's already making it's way into stores...
Actually, I may or may not have said that
before he left to go to the pharmacy.
He gave me the look,
then proceeded to create this,
and take the pictures.

Tomorrow is
National Spaghetti Day
and I'm hoping I can convince The Duke to make his
signature from scratch sauce while I watch
and maybe, just maybe let me share the recipe.
Fingers crossed friends... Married a decade and I don't have it yet. LOL
Sweet post. :) Always nice to take a moment to remember how you are working as a team.. we do it often as well, so neither of us feels overwhelmed or unappreciated.
ReplyDeleteYes a sweet post with yummy photos! Didn't know there were National Days for food - great idea of posts!
ReplyDeleteThose look good. I was thinking more of the cordial cherries, but these look better.
ReplyDeleteI hope your migraine goes away quickly. I know what that's like! I love chocolate, hugest weakness for me. These look so great!
ReplyDeleteomg! Sounds delicious. I think I need to celebrate, anyone else?
ReplyDeleteOh, I could definitely get into national chocolate covered cherry day! Hope you're feeling better :)
ReplyDeleteIt's been years since I've had a chocolate covered cherry! Makes me think of my Grandpa ever single time I see them.
ReplyDeleteWe just bought a bag of chocolate covered cherries at costco! THey are so so good! I love fresh they taste even from a bag.
ReplyDeleteChocolate covered cherries is one of my favorite treats. I like strawberries, too, but there is just something so much better about a nice, ripe, not too sweet, not too tart cherry.
