So Much Love
Back from their honeymoon–at last, at last, the kids (oooh…can I call them kids?) came home and invited us to their wedding-gift-opening night.
What may have looked like chaos to some, was in fact, a huge downpour of love, for these two sweethearts. And oh, my goodness–so much love from so many…
dear, sweet, beloved friends and family.
It was sincerely incredible to watch them be so showered on and see them be absolutely delighted. Such thoughtfulness from so many. In the end, I’ll admit, I was nearly speechless…
nearly. :}
I do have one question though.
Who gave these guys permission to grow up…so fast?
Hmmmm?
Sheesh.
~Best Friends~

So Much Sweetness
Valentine’s Day should–I suppose, be a day of smushy, mushy, sweetness and therefore who could be surprised that the very best breakfast turned out to be Apple Strudel with real, honest-to-goodness whipped cream on top–for luck.
Oh, you’ve no idea the decadence I’m capable of. I’d show you a picture, but sincerely, that lovely, flakey, cinnamony thing wasn’t on my plate long enough to find the camera…nevermind snap it.
Then to add to the sweetness of the day, my grandbabies–oooh, wouldn’t they howl hearing me call them babies?–came and brought me chocolates…
and a beautiful topiary–I think it’s called a bougainvillea tree. I’ll have to do a bit of deep, dark research to find out how to keep from killing it. Honestly, though, have you ever seen a more perfect shade of pink?
Then, when evening rolled around, Miss Chompy helped her mama make the most delectable treat of the day–strawberry tarts! My…oh…my they were incredibly good.
And what’s a strawberry tart without real, honest-to-goodness whipped cream on top–for luck?
Heh, heh.
Hearts and Flowers
It was my intention to make something lovely, or amazing or scrumptious for today’s post. It was going to be a “something” with lots of flowers and hearts all over the place…
just before Valentine’s Day. But then “something” else took up all the time and space.
Something big and amazing and lovely–but still with lots of hearts and flowers, that I’ll show you as soon as those pictures come to us.
But in the meantime, I decided to go on a quest. A *pink* quest to be more precise, because I love pink–in fact, sometimes I think I own pink.
Just feels like it’s…you know…mine somehow.
Lucky for you, my lovelies, that I’m so-so good at sharing.
Especially on this scrumptious, pink…
heart-y, day before the mushiest day on earth.
But I’ll think of something marvelous for tomorrow…you’ll see.
Perhaps it will even be full of hearts and flowers…you never know.
Heh, heh.
