Sometimes it’s best to…Laugh!

Standard

Anyone out there single like moi?  If so, congratulations…you made it through another Valentine’s Day! 

With all things “love” being on my mind this week, I thought I’d go into the weekend with a bit of laughter regarding my single self…

…Truth be told, being single isn’t all bad!  But it’s still nice to have a bit of a laugh at one’s self!

Have a fantastic weekend!

A Beautiful Cliché…

Standard

What are your thoughts on receiving roses for Valentine’s Day?  Is it too cliché for your tastes? 

Roses are so classic & beautiful in my mind…that I’d be happy to receive them on V-Day (or any day for that matter).

Red, pink, white, or yellow…one, two or a dozen…yup, I’d be happy as a clam to get this beautiful V-Day cliché!

Words of Love…

Standard

If you are in need of some poetry to quote for your loved one this Valentine’s Day…may I suggest you look no further than Pablo Neruda. 

His words are dripping with longing and affection…

…phew, I swoon every time I read his poetry!

Hope you have someone special to whisper a few lines to…otherwise you can read it & daydream (like me)!

Sweets for Your Sweet…

Standard

Remember passing out candy & treats along with your Valentines back in the day?  Instead of just a box of chocolates (although there is nothing wrong with that), why not make something sweet for those you love this weekend…

Here is a little inspiration:

{V-Day Cupcakes in a Jar}

 

{Chocolate Covered Pretzels}

{V-Day Rice Krispies}

{Conversation Heart Cookies}

 

…Yum, I think I’ll bake those cookies for my friends (who are my sweets this V-Day)!!

Preparing for V-Day…

Standard

We’re approaching the first weekend of February…where has the time gone?  I feel like we were just celebrating New Years!  But alas, time marches on…which means that all too sappy & sweet holiday otherwise known as Valentine’s Day is just around the corner! 

I really do enjoy V-Day even though I’m usually single for it!  I wish I could still hand out hand-written valentines & candy to my coworkers like we used to do back in elementary school! 

So in honor of the impending holiday I decided to do a little round-up of Valentine’s Day/Love-themed tidbits from around the web to get us all in the mood:

Sweet collaboration of True Love in Pictures…*sigh*

I adore this simple, but chic print!

I’m obsessed with this love song…and the way he looks at his wife as he sings it!

Must try making this “gem” of a DIY valentine.

Would you care to receive any of these gifts for V-Day (if you’re a woman)?

Such a beautiful idea…love letters to your future spouse.

Guide to aphrodisiacs and some recipes to boot!

A few winter date ideas…that won’t break the bank!

Some decoration inspiration for V-Day!

Ok, ok, I’m done…wouldn’t want you to gag from all this mushy love stuff!!

Hope you all have a great Friday!
