White Chocolate Valentines

Found this recipe the other day on the Food Network. Haven't tried it yet but its perfect for the upcoming holiday and the white chocolate topping can easily be change to dark chocolate for those in the family that want the dark stuff.You use Alton's sugar cookie recipe as a base. And I like the suggestion of adding a heaping teaspoon of vanilla to it.

Anyway, I thought I'd share:

Make sure to follow the link for the sugar cookie dough recipe:

Just be careful of the food colorings if you're sensitive to those!

This week's favorite one-liner:
"Incontinence Hotline...Can you hold, please?"


New second favorite:
A school teacher was arrested at the airport for trying to go through security with a slide rule & a calculator. He was charged with carrying weapons of math instruction."


Adding a third because I'm just so darn easily amused...
"Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups"


Above funny things are from the "Prairie Home Companion--Pretty Good Joke Book", which I pull out & read when I've had a bad day & really need a laugh...

Current treatments:
-IC diet
-Elavil 20mg at night
-Ditropan 5mg at night
-Continuous use birth control pills (4-5 periods/year)
-Heparin/Marcaine/Sodium Bicarb home instills every night & sometimes in the morning also
-Pyridium if needed, usually once a week or so
-1 Darvocet at bedtime,
-Flexeril 10mg at bedtime
-Dye Free Benadryl for allergies occasionally
-Pelvic floor & myofascial release (external only) physical therapy for 8 weeks, then home exercise program...
-Managing stress
-Fur therapy: Hugging the cat!
