Pink on Saturday


We shall finish celebrating Valentine's Day this weekend. It has always been one of my favorites. Its appeal runs the gamut from romance to sentimental to the food. And, of course, who can forget the chocolate and the flowers?



I remember Valentine parties in school. The crepe paper covered box served as a "post office" and the Valentine I got from a secret admirer. Was it Bill D.? I certainly had hoped so but probably not.... Oh, well. I had a wonderful Valentine until he passed and now I have another one so life has turned out well all things considered.


I feel so blessed at times. This past week has been one of those weeks. My embroidery machine has stitched away and my needles have been clicking.


These towels are the never touch towels.....


My felted purse has been blinged up and it part of my centerpiece on the coffee table.



The purse is now sitting on a shawl I am knitting. I must have had hearts on the brain as I got ready to go to knitting and stuffed the shawl in my knitting bag!


A few more pictures of roses...





A lovely lunch and

a Valentine's Day tradition.


I am joining Beverly at How Sweet the Sound for Pink Saturday. Stop in and say hi!
