Thank you for hosting each week, Marty! (I added this week’s pop-up link party because it’s also a round-up of my Valentine’s projects, and the party is closed. If you feel it needs to be deleted, no problem!) Have a blessed Valentine’s weekend!
Love all this inspiration!
You are incredible friend! Every time I visit—I leave inspired!
Happy day!

Thanks for hosting and I hope that you have a wonderful week.
Thank you for hosting! This is what I featured the week of 2-3 to 2-7 on my blog. On Tuesday was Addiction Chocolate Cake. It tastes like a giant Ding Dong. Wednesday I featured a Banana Chocolate Chip Cake worthy of replacing any loaf style Banana Bread. Thursday I featured Slice of Heaven Cake. If you like caramel and snickers candy bars you need to grab this recipe. And winding up Cake Week I posted How to Pipe Frosting. It is part of my Tip Friday Series.
All these features have me itching for a spring room refresh Marty! Thanks so much for hosting. I hope you and your family have a fabulous Valentines week. Hugs, CoCo
