vday chocolates…and a snow day!

Better late than never, right?

I seem to be making a habit of taking multi-month hiatuses from posting here…but I suppose today is better time than ever to post.  The nyc area got about 10 inches of snow today – our biggest snow storm of the season!  Usually on days like this I’ll be all set up with my laptop happily working from home…however on Friday I had to leave my laptop at work because they needed to run some updates on it for me…as a result I only have access to my webmail and can’t do much without server and database access.

I made some chocolates to bring into work for Valentine’s day, and by “some” i mean about 500 pieces to be split between my office, M’s office and mom’s office! The coworkers get treated to these chocolates 4x a year – Halloween, Christmas, Vday and Easter…the summer months is a long stretch without them! I found the recipe on bakerella’s site – she’s got some great ideas on there!

I’ll let the pictures do the rest of the talking:

The lil soldiers all lined up waiting for their tops:

Over the years I’ve managed to amass quite a collection of sprinkles. My vday ones are among my favorites!

Dressed and ready to parrrrrrrty!
