Lovely little words...

This was shared with me some time ago {thanks, El}
and I thought it was time for a reminder.

I'm starting my weekend early, and planning to act out of love.
Hope you will do the same!

A new side salad...

Brussels Sprouts are definitely a college thing. We NEVER ate them growing up and I'm not sure the rest of my home-household is a big fan of the vegetable. However, it's a popular side here on the mountain and I think I'd be willing to give this little salad a go. 

Croutons and craisins just make it that much better. 

{Karen - pass this recipe along to your Mom!}

Pretty party pumps...

...who cares if I have no where to wear them. 

Wait. 

I definitely DO have somewhere to wear them. 

Happy 21st birthday, Mary Ottley!

Hope these ship fast. I'm trying to look classy at dinner. 

Yes, these are necessary.

What I would have liked...

...is this. 

For breakfast. 

Today. Because it's Monday.

Gruyere Fig Jam and Arugula Breakfast Sandwiches

Am I right? 

This weekend my Valentine's and I experimented with figs and cheese. 

We won - baked brie with a fig, honey, and walnut topping. 

So now I guess I'm on a "fig kick" because this is

looking particularly wonderful. 

Cheese and figs {and egg} in the morning. 

I say YES. 

Happy Valentine's Day!

This goes for all of you. 

May you feel the love today, and may you eat some chocolate.

TGIF!

See you later, Sewanee...

...I 'm lost in Narnia. 

Happy Snow Day!

Please-warm-up-Wednesday...

...this is all I have to say. 

There's not even snow here.
So what's the point?!

{Thanks, Rob, for finding someone who understands me!}

Tea-ny treats...

...are the best kind of treats.

Especially around Valentine's. 

DIY Valentines Tea Bag

Perfect for my tea-drinking friends out there. 

{Tilden - I'm talkin' to you}

Let's go get some?

A little love to start the week...

...have you made your Valentine's? 

{Yes, that is plural because yes, you can have more than one}

Case in point: "Galentine's Day"

Here's to all my gals. 

Time to get cranking on these cards.

DIY Printable Valentine's Cards

I'm thinking these are slightlyyy better designed than the 24 

cards I made for Mrs. Wallen's kindergarten class way 

back in the day. But that's just a guess. 

Happy Valentine's WEEK. 

And happy Monday! 

TGIF.
