Hearts and Flour(s) for Valentine's Day

Flour(s) for Valentine's Day

Four our 2022 Valentine celebration Buttercupland is going slightly unconventional. We do have hearts -- please see the fabulous loaves of bread above -- and instead of flowers we're going with flours. I found these goodies at one of my favorite places in the neighborhood, Breads Bakery, and I was dazzled by their creativity.


Here are our hearts of flour. Please pardon the puns, but I couldn't resist. 

I stopped by Breads on Friday and enjoyed the fifty degree weather -- felt as though it were spring -- at their outdoor tables. It was blissful. I was sorely tempted by these heart shaped breads as well as pastries in the picture below, but I stuck with my mainstay, spinach pie and of course, coffee. 


Here are our Valentine "Rose"lach, a pink take on the delicious rugelach
 that's a standard on the Breads menu. 


This is only part one in our Buttercupland celebration of Valentine's Day. I'll be back later in the day with my favorite bouquet photographed during my walks around the neighborhood. 

Are you a hearts, flowers or flour person? I'm a flour/low carb baking blend person for my treats. I love looking at flowers, but I feel so sad when they fade away. I like candy and know I wouldn't say no to a candy heart, but I love cookies. I'm thinking of mixing up a small batch of chocolate cookies as my treat tomorrow. 

Happy hearts, flowers and flours, my friends. Hugs and more hugs for Valentine's Day. Thank you for your friendship. 

As ever, thanks for visiting and have a sweet day!

Belated ❤️ Day to you, Carol, and I enjoyed the bakery’s creative twist on the flowers/flours theme. In agreement with you that flowers are beautiful to look at, but flours are tasty.
