Cooking Together

Most couples go to restaurants to celebrate Valentine's Day. Why not instead be at home and cook a meal with your beloved or maybe some cupcakes. It would be great fun!

In case you want to amaze your lover you might need some of those decorations for your cupcakes. Good luck and Happy baking! 

  Valentine's Day Superstitions

Sparrow: a poor man
Owl: remain spinster
Bluebird: a happy man
Blackbird: a priest or clergyman
Crossbill: an argumentative man
