Happy Valentine's Day! ♥

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!!  
If you're reading this you are awesome, and I thank you humbly for reading my little nonsense of a blog :) I may not be as active on here as I once was (ugh, life always getting in the way!), but I do cherish this little venue of thought and creativity. And it is nice indeed to know some people stop by!! 

So  here, for you, some flower pictures. It's what I do best! ;)


And not just any flowers, but tulips. Pink tulips. 
They were what my wedding bouquet consisted of.
They are the definition of spring and romance. ♥
And I rewarded myself for getting through a tough work week and weekend on Monday.
Then proceeded to take a ridiculous amount of pictures of them on Tuesday when I was off work. 

:) 




I tried the penny in a tulip vase trick I saw a looooooooong time ago on pinterest and you know what, it works!
These have stood so tall and proud instead of toppling over like they usually do. 
I recommend trying it if you bring home tulips this spring!


And of course, no Valentine's Day is complete without chocolate.
So here's a plate full of mini chocolate cupcakes with whipped chocolate ganache frosting.
Lemme tell ya --- deeeeeeelish!
 

Thanks to my MIL for sending me mini cupcake liners for the tin I bought at Christmas. And thanks for the colorful spring sprinkles, love them!!

Oh and the baby and I indulged and have found the chocolate ganache to be particularly irresistible. It tastes like chocolate ice cream!
She's the size of a grapefruit apparently.
I wonder if it's a large or small grapefruit. 
Either way, she's making me look bigger by the week...


23 weeks now. 
17 weeks to go.

Hahahhahahaha
I love the awkwardness of my face after taking a MILLION self-portraits with the camera remote and tripod. Talk about a challenge! :D 

Ah, I'm loving this spring!
Now if only the weather would cooperate and get a little more sunny!!

Anywho, best start packing since I have a little time before work! 
Thanks again for reading and hope you get spoiled today! :)
