Planning a Fun Valentine’s Day
Are you planning a fun Valentine’s Day? I don’t go crazy with valentines decorations but I do add a bit of pink to my white sofa in my family room. Pillows and a throw are a nice cozy touch. I don’t buy a lot, but I put out some Valentine’s candy for “Handy”. He’s my sweet eater and he enjoys the love!

I used to do more when the kids were little. With Kenny and Annie, I always made homemade Valentines for them and I decorated the house with crafts. Emma wanted nothing to do with my homemade cards and proudly distributed her store-bought beauties. I always added in something extra–much to her chagrin. LOL.
I decided to try my hand at making a small Valentine’s project this week just to see if I’ve still got it! My idea was to make 3-D hanging hearts, cut out from pages of an old book. Turns out the book was so old that just cutting the fragile paper was a challenge. My project turned into just some old sheet music and my cut-out hearts on my table. I’m loving this cozy little corner of my family room. It’s where I sit at night and watch TV with “Handy” or read a book.
Valentine’s Day Dinner Plans
Since Valentine’s Day is on a Monday this year, I won’t have time to prepare a complicated dinner. Salmon is an easy healthy, but also elegant dish to make for the occasion. The color of salmon also lends itself to a pretty amazing holiday meal. Salmon, along with a simple salad and herbed brown rice, will be a delicious dinner.
