Sunday, February 14.....Valentine's Day!

A Valentine Vignette. My thoughtful and endearing husband had roses waiting for me when I awoke on Valentine's morning. Such a beautiful shade of pink. Aren't roses the most exquisite blooms?? It does my gardener's soul a world of good to have such an extravagance in the middle of a snowy winter.

My Valentine cupcakes ready to be packaged up for delivery...it's a tradition I do for my family. I love that they remind me of the grade school Valentine parties I had growing up. We would make a beautiful box to hold our class Valentine cards and eat cupcakes and cookies that our mother's proudly baked and decorated.

A Valentine tattoo that was included in my Valentine card from my niece. She very kindly applied it for me. You take one washcloth, wet it and hold it on the tattoo while singing the ABC song twice in a row. Voila! A tattoo kiss!

Yet another Lefton treasure found at an antiques mall. It is actually a wall pocket, but I have it decorating my baker's rack in the dining/sunroom.
