Cookies!
Happy Valentines Day! When my kids and grandkids were here this past weekend we made cut-out sugar cookies and decorated them for Valentines Day!
This has been an ongoing tradition and this year was our 18th annual Cookie Baking Day! The kids have grown up and are much neater bakers and decorators than they were when we first started this.
Now they have jobs and other events that interfere with my plans to gather everyone together and there were not nearly as many cookie decorators here this year. The snowy weather did not help this year either, and many family members who had to travel a long distance were not here.
I wonder how many phones were covered in icing before the day was done?
Wishing everyone a Happy Valentines Day!

Wow! Thanks so much! You are appreciated!
Oh how beautiful!! I made sugar cookies with my kids this year for Valentines Day and now I’m inspired to create a tradition of it :)
I started it for my niece when she was 3yrs old and continued as my grandkids came along. I almost didn't do it this year because everyone has gotten so busy and so grown up that I often wonder if coming to Grandma's house to make cookies is important anymore. There was a huge outcry when I even suggested that I wasn't going to do it so I guess it continues! I think traditions for families are very important.
howdy again Melinda! it's a slow night for me as far as trying to find people to talk to! I'm like where IS everybody? But I guess since it's Friday night people think they shouldn't be on steemit? are they nuts? lol.. anyway, how much did you send to tipu, do you know?
I send 5 or 10 steem whenever my balance gets low.
It is quiet around here tonight!
oh ok Melinda, so you use that tipu thing alot? do you keep it at the default setting of .1 steem or sbd?
yeah it's dead here tonight! I think it's just me and you. lol. I just got a comment from Keith so I'll try to get a conversation started.
Ha! I got a comment from Keith, too. Yes my tips are usually .1 unless I want to give someone a bigger vote for some reason. Sometimes my friends in Venezuela have a need for more and I try to help out, and a tip is a good way to do that since my 100% upvote is only worth . 07 right now.
dang 7 cents is alot these days! almost everybody's is worth 2 or 3 cents it seems like. So if I send them 1 steem that would last ten .1 steem tips?
I never can figure out the math. I'm usually out of tips before I expect to be., but you have the theory right!
Give it a try.
I'm hopeful that our voting power will grow soon. The price of steem has been slowly climbing this week.
are you getting any bot visits? I've gotten a few, not as many as before, I got one from lizardslayer I think it is?
that will be so nice when our voting power grows! maybe I won't have to lease so much steem.
Sorry.. I got pulled into a Discord chat... I have not had a single vote since those 3 I got earlier this evening. I'm heading for bed and will be hoping to see some action in the morning!

Wait! what? You have become a Partiko billboard?
haha... not really. I have the Partiko App on my phone before i learned of esteem. So, I check in occasionally to do an upvote or a simple post - to maintain my presence, so to speak.
Whew! I was worried. When I curate posts, I tend to skip over people that are not loyal to eSteem and I didn't want that to happen!
haha... I was with Partiko first. Then I switch to esteem. For that I felt i have been disloyal to Partiko. So, every now and then, I will slip in the odd post - usually pictures, since esteem do not upvote every post and prefer post with some narratives. I hope that is okay. :-)
I hope it will be, too!
What a wonderful tradition and the cookies are scrumptiously beautiful !!
Happy Valentine my wonderful lady Mel ! Hug hug from your very old (but very smart) friend !😄 😘 😍 ❤️ 💖 😻 😽
My dear old friend, Luigi! Thank you so much for the Valentine greetings. I hope both you and your human have had a delightful day!
We had indeed !
