The Real Heart of Winter

Here in Wisconsin, there’s no mistaking the season – ice + snow + freezing cold temperatures = winter. It’s about this time of the year that we start dreaming about taking a vacation that will bring us to someplace, any place, which will be warmer than here. But the reality is, we’re stuck in the heart of winter with several more weeks to go before we finally get to spring.

So how can we find warmth in a season that is so very cold? Chocolate, for one, always seems to help. Treating yourself or a loved one to a sweet treat this time of year, can be just the pick me up for the winter blues. And with Valentine’s Day upon us, there’s no better way to say “I love you” than through chocolate.

We have so many delicious hearts to choose from this time of year at Sweet P’s. Our indulgent chocolate peanut butter hearts are a peanut butter lover’s dream come true.

Our new heart cookie bars are the perfect combo of chocolate and heart shaped butter cookies.

And our Valentine’s Day gift bags and greeting boxes really take it up a notch when it comes to treating someone special with a variety of sweetness.

It should also go without saying that another way to find the real heart of winter is by extending our love to others all around us. Any small gesture of kindness, a hand written note or a warm embrace can really go a long way to let someone know you care. Even in the midst of a cold season, the warmth of our love is  important, we all need more love this year — and every year.
