HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY 2014!

I mentioned in my Valentine's post for 2013 that although most small plates with molded borders were probably intended for children, some almost definitely were for adults.  I gave Kiss Me Quick to my husband for Valentine's Day last year.  It represented my own feelings for him more than a box of chocolates or a card!
