I am getting really excited for Valentine’s Day! I have very sweet memories of this time of year in elementary school – a handmade box to hold all of my valentines from classmates, and hoping and wishing that the boy I had a huge crush on would write a special love note to me on his Bart Simpson card. Alas, it never actually happened, but a girl could dream:)
These wood blocks are so pretty and such a unique idea!
Heart-shaped brownies. Yum yum.
Such a sweet photo.
I just about keeled over in happiness when I saw these heart tea bags! I love the felt hearts, and instantly had to make my own version:
I cut 2 hearts out of red felt, glued a small strip of velcro to each, and stuck the string of the tea bag through. I did the velcro so that I could re-use the same heart again and again. Why do I need to have my Earl Grey tea bag decorated for the 4 minutes it steeps? Because it’s pretty and makes me happy! I highly recommend making one for yourself.
What are your favorite childhood memories of Valentine’s Day?

Adorable! If only the chain on my strainer was long enough.
Best valentines? 2007, my first with Ben. I still have the card and cheesy bear he gave me. I haven’t let him cook indoors since then either. He made chicken parm, and he over cooked the pasta, and the chicken was burnt on the outide and raw in the center!!
