Director's Blurb
The Saturday before Valentine's Day, our granddaughter, Emma, came to visit for the day. I got out the heart shaped cutters and got to cutting. Emma did a great job of picking her colors and making purple and pink egg paint, and we settled in at the table to paint our cookie hearts. Hoping to be as easy going as my Grandma Davis, I even pulled out the sprinkles to add! Emma giggled when her grandpa painted a face, and the two loved splitting a cookie to sample fresh out of the oven. I discovered that I am the product of both my mother and grandma, as I began limiting the number of sprinkles piled on the cookie and then decided -- what would it matter? At least fifty percent will fall off!
I look forward to visiting with you this Spring!

WDS Director
