My post-Valentine’s Day sweet craving is in full

𝐻𝒶𝓅𝓅𝓎 𝒱𝒶𝓁𝑒𝓃𝓉𝒾𝓃𝑒’𝓈 𝒟𝒶𝓎!♥️🌹 Spreading love and kindness your way today!

There are ways to show someone they are ᥇ꫀꪖ𝕣ꪗ loved without buying them a gift. My favorite way? Food! Take these cute 𝗦𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗿𝗱𝗼𝗼𝗱𝗹𝗲 𝗕𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗣𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗮𝗸𝗲𝘀 for example. They are perfect to make for kiddos on 𝒱𝒶𝓁𝑒𝓃𝓉𝒾𝓃𝑒’𝓈 𝒟𝒶𝓎 and adorable too!🥞🐻♥️

Speaking of bears, as a kid, I was OBSESSED with Winnie The Pooh. Like we are talking ~50% of my clothing was embroidered with @pooh and Piglet. I also had a Pooh Bear watch. #diehard Swipe for your viewing pleasure. And a big shoutout to my friends for making this pic stitch! You’re welcome for this #throwbackthursday 😂🍯

𝗜𝗻𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀:
1 cup all purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp Baking soda
2 Tbsp brown sugar
¼ tsp of salt
3 Tbsp butter, melted
1 egg
1 cup milk
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla extract

𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀:
1. In a medium bowl stir flour, baking powder, baking soda, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
2. In a separate bowl whisk butter, egg, milk, and vanilla extract until combined.
3. Gradually add flour mixture to wet ingredients until fully incorporated.
4. Spray pan with nonstick cooking spray. Once pan is hot, add 1/4 cup scoops over medium heat until golden brown. Bubbles will begin to appear on the top surface so that's how you know when to flip. (About 2 min) **For the paws and ears I used 1 teaspoon and 1 tablespoon of batter.
5. Flip and cook the other side until brown. (1-2min)
6. Serve with butter, maple syrup, or whipped cream and extra cinnamon to taste. I used sliced bananas and melted chocolate chips for the bear paws. Add a cute strawberry heart as a the nose! 💕

Last year was the debut of my first charTREATerie

How do y’all celebrate 𝒱𝒶𝓁𝑒𝓃𝓉𝒾𝓃𝑒’𝓈 𝒟𝒶𝓎? Do you prefer a romantic dinner at home or a reservation at your favorite fancy restaurant? ♥️ .
I’m single AF, so I usually cook a nice dinner, photograph it, and then eat both plates.🤷🏻‍♀️ This year however, I’m headed to CLE for a Galentine’s Day weekend with my best friend!👯‍♀️

𝘍•𝘙•𝘐•𝘌•𝘕•𝘋•𝘚 if you’re staying in this year, make these lobster tails for you and your lobster!🦞
.
PS kick your salads up a notch with heart shaped strawberries!♥️🍓
.
𝗜𝗻𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀:
2 (6oz) lobster tails from @freshthyme
Pinch of salt
Paprika
2 tablespoons of butter
Parsley, chopped + more for garnish
Lemons for garnish

𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀:
1. Place a small grate or steamer insert in the bottom of a pot/skillet. Pour about one inch of water in the bottom of a large pot/skillet. The water should not be touching the grate. Sprinkle a pinch of salt in the water. Bring water to a boil.
2. Sprinkle butterflied lobster tails [instructions at the bottom] with a couple of dashes of paprika. Place lobster tails on grate and cover with lid for 6min. Cooking time varies based on lobster tail ounces. **Do not lift the lid while cooking!! Make sure you watch carefully so you don’t over cook. Resort to Chinese takeout if this happens...
3. While lobster tails are cooking, melt 2 tablespoons of butter and chop parsley. Mix together.
4. Remove lobster tails and generously brush with butter mixture.

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝘂𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗹𝘆 𝗮 𝗹𝗼𝗯𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹:
1. Thaw out tails overnight in refrigerator or soak in cold water bath.
2. Once thawed, cut the tail. (You can tell from my picture where I stopped.)
3. Open the shell by using your thumbs and fingers. Spread the cut top shell apart and loosen it from the meat.
4. Pull up the meat and rest on top of the hard shell.
Easier than it looks, huh?😉
