Happy Valentine's Day, friends!
What are your Valentine's Day plans? Any?
I don't have any plans perse. Laying low and building a fire to be mesmerized by as I watch the flames and reflect on so many memories close to my heart.
I totally want to share something super-duper-heart cool ! Went to the mailbox yesterday and inside there was a package.
I opened it - like a kid at Christmas!
It was from my friends Carol and Toby.
Inside was a beautiful original hand painted card by Carol who is a fine watercolor artist whose work is absolutely/always frame worthy. And, yes, I will frame her piece of art and keep it under glass to view every day when I walk by it. I'll feel the love for sure way after Valentine's Day -- forever.
And - also - in the package was a box wrapped all classy-pretty in Valentine's Day paper. Nope, not a box of chocolates. WAY better! A box of 8 Shower Steamers - that read, "Relax and Enjoy Home SPA with Natural Essential Oil." We're talking Eucalyptus Mint, Lavender, Orange, Pomegranate Rose, Mint, Watermelon and Orange. Wow!
Do I feel special, or what? Quick answer - Very Special! I am so grateful for being thought of on Valentine's Day by my dear friends who were also friends of Peter.
Super fun line-up today!

Greetings Monday. Hello happy people.
Well, tomorrow's Valentine's Day. Do you have a favorite Valentine's memory from when you were a kid?
I fondly recall what a blast it was to take an empty shoe box to school -- the teacher setting aside time for several days in a row when we got a break from chalkboard teaching -- and were set free to create and decorate our cool personalized Valentine's Day boxes.
Remember? The little mailbox sort of thing where classmates slipped a little card in - on the day.
Bonus! The party. Moms brought in sweet treats: cupcakes, punch, little sandwiches, candy.
Good times!
Happy Valentine's Day (!)
Scooped up these wonderful 12 for today. Click and enjoy the entertainment.
