st. valentine inspiration

it's finally february -- valentine's day inspiration is now permissible.
whether your married, dating, or single -- celebrate love this month! here are my top five ways:

1. assemble a beautiful flower arrangement.
give it to a friend or keep it on your kitchen table. either way, enjoy them!

2. put effort into your wrapping.
the details can make a mere chocolate bar or bottle of wine extra special.

3. bake something delicious.
if you don't bake, buy something delicious from a local bakery.

4. keep decorations simple.
honestly, are the cupids necessary?

5. find the right words for the one you love.
and tell them. in person, or letter form. no e-mails or texts, please.

  2. I'm actually excited for Valentine's Day this year! My BF and I have bdays in the 2 weeks before V-Day, so we've decided to do something economical. (Including Christmas, that's a lot of gifts in a little amount of time!). So we're doing the 'cheesy' coupon book idea. This way it'll be creative and I'll still be able to whip up a yummy treat!
