Hello, my name is Susan Duane. I am one of the new contributors at Or So She Says. I’m so excited to be here with you all! I blog at Love of Home where I chronicle my DIY projects, share recipes, my love for family and home. I hope you’ll stop by and see what I’m up to! Today I have a sweet treat that is simple to make, beautiful and delicious: Valentine pastry hearts.  Add some pretty packaging to these pastry hearts, and you’ve got a lovely homemade gift for all your Valentines! These also make a great little “thank you” or hostess gift. The possibilities are really endless.

Packaged Pastry Hearts

And isn’t that box the perfect, subtle way of delivering the pastry hearts? Add a colorful strip of tape, some twine and you’re good to go. This is even something the kids could help with.

Again, I’m happy to be here and look forward to visiting with all of you again next month! Don’t forget to come see me some time!
