Balance

This is a crappy cell phone image, but if you look closely at my cup of tea from this morning, you'll notice a natural yin-yang . . .

Tarts!

Since they don't sell butter tarts here in the US, the only thing a Canadian can do when in urgent need of buttery goodness is to make them herself. Which I did! (See pic below for proof). And they SO hit the spot. For those of you who don't know about them, butter tarts are sort of like pecan pie without the pecans. And they are delicious with a cup of tea . . . YUM.

Hearts!

Happy hearts day! In the Meminger household, we celebrated the power of the heart by making:

heart-shaped chocolate chip cookies (the ones on the right are sans chips as we have anti-chip folks in the family),

savory heart-shaped scones (though many of the heart shapes didn't really hold up),

blueberry muffins (no relation to hearts, but we *love* blueberry muffins!),

 and heart-healthy potato pancakes! Yummm...

Whether you celebrate or not, hope you have a wonderful long weekend and celebrate the power of the heart in other ways, on other days :). <3
