Happy Valentine's Day

I have been so busy lately that I haven't been able to post anything so here is a collection of things I made today for Valentine's Day.

Some Valentines for my friends.

Here is some of the Conversation Heart Bark I made for 

my sister and her Sweet Heart, Robert. 

I made Chocolate Covered Strawberries for my parents and and my Valentine. 

And I am working on Dark Chocolate Chili Truffles I found the recipe at Elana's pantry. 

Verde Rosa........ My love

 There is a boutique down the street in Woodbury called 

Verde Rosa, it is the most visually stimulating store imaginable. It is in a huge barn with gorgeous hot pink curtains that you can see from the road. They are just lovely.

The ceiling is filled with every color petticoat you can think of. 

Its just perfect. Verde Rosa sells vintage and new designer clothing, accessories, 

jewelry and more. 

 

Country Living

I love to visit whenever possible.

Belgique Pâtisserie & Chocolatier - Kent, CT

This place has the best chocolates you can ever imagine. 

I have been thinking about it all week.

And if you can wait till spring Kent Falls is right down the road. 

I hear the birds singing it must be spring!!!!!!!

Well almost.

I'm going to keep telling myself that anyway.

Spring Fever Two......

I had a bathing suit like 

this when I was little.

And then I found these at Anthropologie.

Its as thought they fell down from the heavens just for me. 

Yup all of them. 

Spring Fever

I woke up and there it was, It came from out of nowhere.....Spring Fever.

Well it might have been brought on by too much shopping.
