Planning to serve any hors d'oeuvres on Feb. 14 or at a Galentine's Day fête? Make sure you add these pretty-in-pink toothpicks to your to-do list.
They were inspired by this tutorial -- but of course, these are food-safe.
To make your own, dilute about a dozen drops of red food coloring in a small dish of water. Let the toothpicks soak for 2 hours (I had to pin them down with a fork to keep them from floating). Check the color; if you want them darker, add more food coloring and continue to soak. When you've reached the desired color, lay them on a paper towel to dry.
