How to Throw a Queen of Hearts Valentine's Day Party - Eats

Incorporate the Queen of Hearts theme into your party foods.  Fill a serving platter with red fruits, such as strawberries, apple slices, red grapes and raspberries.  Order in heart-shaped pizzas or cut pizza slices into heart-shapes with cookie cutters or serve a variety of fun finger sandwiches cut into heart shapes.

Serve a red fruit punch.  Add extra touches, too:  shipping tags on your cup handles stamped with DRINK ME with a selection of cheery barber pole straws for stirrers.

Or if your guests would prefer a warm beverage try cinnamon cider.  This is one love potion, kids are sure to love.  To make - stir one quart of apple cider with 1/4 cup hard cinnamon candies in a medium saucepan over low heat.  Bring mixture to a simmer, stirring constantly, until heated through and candies melt completely.  Serve warm in Valentine's Day Hot Cups.
