[PS- If you started reading this blog right before Valentine's Day, you probably thought I was posting a lot of lovey stuff just because of the holiday. Well, as it turns out, I have a general obsession with all creative ways of expressing love, all year round... things I call sentimentia... creative bits of sentiment.. hope you enjoy it too!]

Young Love
These two lovebirds met on a blind date, bonded over their Sicilian heritage and shared desire to return to the island, and spent the next year travelling together and falling in love. One day she opened her front door to a bouquet and a note that said, “I love you, I need you, let’s get married!”
My own widowed grandfather remarried at a spry 91, to a scandalously (as he liked to think) younger 85-year old bride, and these incredible photos by Elizabeth Messina remind me of his school-boyish love for his woman. They are actually of her own grandfarther!

Valentine’s 2k10: Finally Here
And Augusta was excited about it!!
We woke up this morning and ate Jelly Beans, applied her heart tattoo, picked out her outfit, and had a dance party …all before breakfast.
As if that weren’t enough to make my Valentine’s Day, it was made even more wonderful by a surprise apartment-cleaning and cupcakes from Kyle…

LOVED this cute idea from Eating is Art– she decortated this box and filled it with things she loved about her husband and things he loves. (Recipes included in the link too.)
For the non-sweet-toothers*, a cheese and fruit plate with calimyra figs. Did you know they look like hearts when cut length-ways? Click the jump for more edible treats…
I don’t know how you manage to cut a heart out of the middle of a marshmallow, but it’s a great idea.
Like a rice krispie treat but with cheerios?
(Yes I know I JUST posted a poster with this phrase, but helloww, it’s hilarious, and I liked this print too. Is this going to become the next “Keep Calm & Carry On” (the last print to become ubiquitous in the design blog world) ?)
