a v-day pictorial.........

whether your v-day is BIG, low key, or not at all ...............................................................

i'd move to cal-i-for-ni-a,... if just for that cool-beans license plate! (how i luv vintage trucks!)

reflection,.... so fundamental!

there's something about water,... well at least for me! (this is a classic!)

awww, a sweet romantic story-- as well as presentation,... one to show and tell the kids someday!

with water, comes the beach as in soft, powdery, warm sand,.... gotta have it (more a sea-vs-lake gal,... just me, tho!)

i have had a long-term love affair with h-kisses myself,... you?

promises made, tied together, foreva ............................................................................................

like: pbj's with a sweet love note slipped inside the lunch box, homemade chicken soup upon the sniffles, warm choco chip cookies awaiting after school, a glass of your fave vino poured for you after a long, stressful day, your car door gallantly opened just for you, a steaming cup of latte shared with your bff on a random tuesday morn.........................

yes, please! just a little sweet with that...........

 

gentle tenderness-- accepted...................................................................................................

young love-- pre-twilight (my fave  of shakespeare's romances-- of which i taught many)!

love: real, long-lasting, and a lifetime shared, poignant, isn't it?

one of my top all-time fave romantic movies,... new year's eve expectations cannot live up to this!

 “I came here today because when you realize that you want to spend with someone the rest of your life, you want all the remaining life began as soon as possible” ... ok, so how do you say NO to that?

this one is a heart breaker,.... damn that hubbell (love their imperfections!)! 

and, one more of my top faves, for the road.............................................................................................

how important is mutual laughter, playfulness, enjoyment???

a new camelot generation,... interrupted

 

such an unfortunate tragedy.... how classically beautiful were they?

a classic, immortalized:

all chalky white,... would love to replicate this finish on a foyer wall!

crazy about this creative and inexpensive wall art:

not to mention the minimalist lighting hanging en-masse!

momma-love:

 


another tragic loss!

a passion for old books:

clever!

put on your party shoes and celebrate the evening:

sparkle...........................................

pretty pretty!

brainiac love:

7 points! 

a romantic balcony is well, always romantic:

 

on any home, yet especially in verona, italy!

hard to top, but the city of love wins hands down, by moi!

a fun gift for your fave shower mate:

good, clean fun!

direct, adolescent, and raw-- so ok!

the small moment,......

like:..................................................grown-up footsies!

i got you, babe:

crazy cool-ness!

dreamy and natural beauties-- made for each other!

dig this............

could a couple get any hipper and larger than life?

subtle, unostentatious, and thoughtful:

is always welcomed and preferred,... like: flowers-- a gift that just does it for me, especially in the cold of february!

a familial loving touch.................................

the subtle gesture that lingers in the mind!

perfection that can make any day ,everyday, valentine's day,...................

let's hold the little big things all year through!
