This week brought us a mini February heat wave--40-50°! People are a little giddy and carried away by the warmth, so appropriate for this week's end. I'll call it Valentine weather, a love-induced flush.
On Monday my sweet Valentine left work early to meet me for a quick bite and a showing of Casablanca at a little theatre....I guess that was many-a lovers' plan because it was completely sold out....we'll remember next year. Instead, we grabbed cappucino and hot chocolate from LA Burdick to sip while waiting for the bus. At home we watched When Harry Met Sally. A wonderful Valentine's Day...a vignette of the simple loveliness of my life with this fellow.

My mom sent a sweet Valentine package: a cutely quirky bee-girl valentine, favorite sour cherry balls, and a little bundle of family heirloom silver spoons. A reminder to create small and lovely moments daily, and to create special occasions rather than wait for them. <3 This day's special occasion: chai and girl scout cookies. After all, those darn cookies are only around once a year. So coveted.
My mom and pop went dancing for Valentine's Day this year. Isn't that great? :) Did anyone else celebrate?

I'm glad you and your Valentine had a lovely date together. It sounds like a wonderful time!
Those girl scout cookies look like the perfect treat! (I ordered some but haven't gotten them yet...) I share your sentiment of celebrating the sweet things in our everyday...
And way to go on the dancing, Evans rents - reminds me of you two cutting a rug at the winery. So sweet!
