Cupid Floats- Perfect for Valentine's Day!


Pinterest is flooded with recipes and crafts for Valentine's Day.   I kept seeing variations of Cupid Floats, and I thought they would be a fun thing to make with my son.  

Very simple- add a scoop or 2 of Edy's Vanilla Bean ice cream to a tall glass.   Pour Cherry 7 Up or another cherry soda over it, tilting the glass and taking care not to let it foam over everywhere. 

I topped ours with some whipped cream and sprinkles.     Thank you so much Stephanie from Somewhat Simple!  Jake loved her idea of using a Twizzler as a straw but I didn't have any on hand.

Strawberry Pizzelles

Pizzelles are one of my favorite childhood cookies and I'm constantly looking for ways to put a new spin on them.  Since one of my favorite summer fruits is strawberries, I swapped out the vanilla in the original recipe with strawberry extract. 

Easy Stuffed Waffles with Sweet and Savory Fillings

Stuffed waffles are a fun twist on the classic waffle—crispy on the outside and packed with tasty fillings inside. I recently got a stuffed waffle maker, and I’m loving how it turns waffles into little pockets of deliciousness! The best part? You don’t need a strict recipe because this is a perfect “clean out the fridge” meal. Grab whatever leftovers or fillings you have on hand, stuff ’em inside, and waffle away! Here’s what I tried this time, but feel free to get creative and make it your own.
