    I'm having a few lady
    I'm having a few lady friends over Monday morning for tea and coffee and we will discuss "Love" and what it really means to each of us. I've also printed some bible verses that speak of "Agape Love".

    I made some flourless chocolate individual heart shaped cakes, and will serve strawberries and cool whip to go along with the chocolate cakes and dark chocolate heart shaped candies. I made heart shaped pink iridescent earrings for each gal and we will celebrate and enjoy each other's company as we share friendship and love.

    So now I'm forced to get my butt in gear and do some dusting, straightening, and mopping. That is the downside, however an upside is that I have the energy to do it.

    Hubby and I havent discussed if we will do anything, but that's ok because we have shared love and the ups and downs of life for 38 years. Happy Early Valentines Day to all my Loving Pink Sisters.

    Oh natly,
    That sounds so wonderful! I wished I lived closer so I could join you.

    Actually, I just got home from a "Chocolate Tea" with some very good friends. We had a great time and everything was chocolate from the scones, to the sandwiches, to the desserts and tea! We laughed and had a wonderful time. I really needed this after this past week.

    Monday, Tom and I are driving to North Carolina to have Valentines Dinner at Duplin Winery, and then on to Myrtle Beach for a few days of nothing!

    Love to all my Valentine sisters. ♥♥♥

    xoxo,
    Jean

    Jean, I wish you lived closer too! Have a wonderful trip and enjoy and relax. You've had a couple of rough days. I think that all of us pink sisters would have an absolute fantastic time if we could all get together. It would be a blast with all the different personalities. Happy V Day. I dont know how to make those hearts you made so I'll just add some V's. VVVVVVVVV

    ?
    I don't know, but, my hubby said it will be very special! And, knowing him, it will.


    He asked me to be out of the house Monday afternoon and told me when I can come back. Who is he to tell me to leave and when to come back? Welllllllllllll..the love of my life! lol



    So, it looks like it is going to be another adventure that I can't wait to share. Or, I hope I can. ( wink, wink )

    Valentine's Day is the one
    Valentine's Day is the one "holiday" that doesn't interest me at all~ I find myself muting the onslaught of commercials designed to "guilt" men into buying diamonds or heart shaped boxes of chocolate and the like. I am not even sure WHY I feel this way; I am married to a loving, generous, romantic man who is crazy about me...but I feel positively nothing but discomfort about an actual day set aside to compel romanticism! It just seems so contrived~ I don't buy anything for Reggie and doubt he has anything for me. If he did, it would be a silly Hoops and YoYo talking card from the Hallmark store which would truly make me laugh~ I do adore Hoops and Yoyo! If Reggie asked if I wanted to go out to dinner, he already knows I would kindly decline...much nicer to just have us in the kitchen cooking dinner together and then watching an old movie or something. Now THAT'S romantic! Possibly I would light candles...LOL
    So no...we have nothing planned!

    But that's jut me!
    Hugs,

    Hmmm...
    We talked a little about it and decided to go out for a nice lunch at some new restaurant--somewhere that we have never tried and skip the hassle of dinner reservations. I am so glad my sweet Dave is home with me right now and can actually eat out at lunch! He works overseas and is only home every other month so he got here in time for my first chemo and then will be here for my second one and then leaves 5 days later. He is being so sweet to me and has really stepped it up this month --we will celebrate 40 years of marriage in August. Can't believe that really!
    Oh funny thing...he bought me a box of chocolate covered cherries--I know, I know ..lots of people hate them but I just love them, however he hid them in the house and my little dog discovered them while we were out and ate every last one of them!!!
    Happy Valentine's Day to Everyone!
    And I agree, I want to be at Natly's!

    I am celebrating early
    by treating myself to a ballet tomorrow.

    Since monday, I will be very busy first thing in the morning, it's time
    for a lovely radioactive injection and then I get to spend 30-40 minutes
    in a tube ( I have to admit, usually cursing under my breath), I think they
    call this a PET scan (;

    Then off to work and after meet my mortgage counselor to chase my
    dream. So it's a pretty full day.

    Hope you will all be showered with love in the form of chocolated, flowers
    and Champagne in candle light!!

    LOTSA love to all the kindred spirits on here!!

    Hugs,

    DID someone say flourless chocolate cake???
    My favorite.. I once begged my friend to take my leftover birthday
    flourless chocolate cake, as I JUST KNEW what a danger it posed in
    my apartment, beckoning, calling out to me.. luring me in..

    YUMMM

    Valentine's Day is not just
    Valentine's Day is not just another holiday, it is the one day that you can celebrate your love for each other. Ofcourse, you do this everyday, whether a holiday or not, but, this should be special.


    We went out to eat last night at a darling restaurant. It was so nice to be out together and just enjoying each other's company, just talking and laughing.


    My hubby had gotten me a dozen beautiful pink roses with one white one earlier in the day. Loved them and love him!


    Hoping everyone has a great valentine's day!

    Diane .. as it should be ...
    Pete and I as well celebrated yesterday. Our daughter, Alexandra and her beau, Eric will be celebrating today, as Eric goes to College and works later Monday night. This is our daughters first 'real', or true ... Valentine's Day. I am enjoying every moment with Alexandra.

    I choose to believe that Valentine's Day, is any day .. we share time, laughs and life together.

    And, Pink Pearl, I love chocolate covered cherries. My hubby always buys me some at Christmas and on Valentine's Day. YUM! Kind of a tradition!


    We're going to a movie Monday and then a late dinner. Kind of like 2 Saturday nights in one week. LOL Can't wait!

    Love going out and on a special day like Valentine's Day, it just makes it that much sweeter!

    Have a great Valentine's Day sisters in pink!
