I whipped up these treats while M was at preschool today. Not only are they cheap, quick, and easy to make, but I’m pretty sure they will be enjoyed MUCH more by his classmates than those generic, store bought valentines that get looked at once and then chucked into the recycle bin the next day.

Every Mother’s Day I try to give my mom a little note that expresses how much she means to me, accompanied with a pot of flowers. This year, in addition to my usual gift, I thought it would be fun to create an edible bouquet from the boys, and some memory stones for her garden.
