Happy Valentine's Day!

This weekend my roommates and I hosted a very successful Valentine's Day cocktail party... complete with fancy dresses, pink cake balls and... Irish car bombs?

The drinks weren't the only thing that made the party a smashing success! I featured a few easy yet pleasing treats that definitely satisfied the sweet tooth that Cupid hits everyone with this time of year. I assembled a batch of a pinker version of my Christmas nip-bits...


This time I used peanut butter filled M&Ms to add yet another layer of yum flavor to the nips.

I made a batch of pink funfetti bake balls, using pink candy melt coating, which I was not a fan of. Next time I will go back to using white chocolate instead of candy melts as a coating.


And finally some cute chocolate covered pretzels!



Now just to address the car bomb comment... My best friend Maria and her fiance and Irishman "Frank the tank" were in attendance... They are true love at its finest. Well obviously he brought the Guinness, and the Bailey's, and the whiskey... I couldn't join in on the car bombing due to my lactardedness, but I did get my own favorite bomb made for me by the one and only Janice Kane... the jager bomb! Thanks Jan...

I apologize for the lack of posting yesterday. I was very busy at the office, so I forced myself to wake up an hour early to get these pictures and post up. But I believe that the harder you work the luckier you get, and I always work hard :) I will be the editor of an amazing magazine one day, even if I have to start it myself!!!!

* Happy Valentine's Day everyone * If you are reading this then, I love you!
