Weekend Things

Hello from the tundra! The wind is absolutely wicked today, but I’m still going to brave the elements to check out 50 Shades of Grey. I know, I know. I don’t have high expectations. I didn’t even read the book. It just feels like the right thing to do on Valentine’s Day weekend. Speaking of: Have you guys made Peanut Butter Hearts yet? I whipped up another batch yesterday.
