Sugary Hearts All Day Long

 To stick with more current and immediate events, yesterday was Valentine's Day, and hearts were frigin everywhere.

 Hearts hanging from the ceiling

Hearts on the griddle

I don't think we ate anything not heart-shaped that day. French toast for breakfast, donuts for lunch (I know, right!) and then jello for dessert. 

Yuula made me this card

And then passed this one off as her own, too

There's that nasty jello

I guess this is something we do with jello now

He might as well learn what kind of family he's been born into sooner than later

Love, So Be It

Valentine's is a tough one. I don't buy into the holiday and all, but in my aging boredom it's nice to have a little something to differentiate between days when they all blur together and turn life into one blinding flash of routine and repetition until you finally perish of cynicism and halitosis. 

Some wine, candles, flowers, and the worst red velvet cake ever concocted. 

Dinner was heart-shaped

Sweet potato and kale chicken patties over a nice bed of greens... heart healthy on heart day

This will be empty by the end of tonight

I think she got a caramel

Happy Valentine's Day

I ♥ The Heart

happy Valentine's day!
