My Lemon Madeleine Recipe: The PERFECT French Pastry to Make at Home!
If I had to pick a favorite holiday it would be Valentine’s Day. I’ve always loved that day because it’s so… simple. The only real rule is that you have to show people you love them. Check back on Friday for a date night story about Jack and me but I’m dedicating this post to the person who made this day my favorite day when I was a kid: my mom.
Growing up she always made Valentine’s Day so special for me and my sister. At least a week before February 14th we would make crafts with little scissors and red construction paper. There were also lots of treats… brownies cut into heart shapes and cupcakes with puffs of pink frosting. On the special day there may or may not have been a heart-shaped breakfast before we put on pink dresses and went to school to trade little envelopes with our little friends. After school there were more treats. It was the sweetest kind of sugar rush that could possibly be.
So now it's only fitting that the credits go back to mom. I've been a little down lately with some health issues and other calamities and my mom has been in town for a few weeks to help out in a way that only moms can. The bed has been made the dog hair has been vacuumed out of the couch cushions AND heart shaped lemon madeleines have been made for the blog. And how cute are they?!?
