Romancing the home

Little touches of romance can be found everywhere around the house . . .

Turtle dove soaps in the Powder Room . . .  I'll have to remove the pretend straw . . . I was hoping for an egg . . .  What do you think . . . ?


My husband was very happy that I didn't wait for Easter to bring home some jelly beans . . .


For my son and his college buddies, red velvet cupcakes in these darling liners that stay bright even after baking . . .


Mama love . . .


I'm trying out the new heart dishes that I won in Linda's (More Fun Less Laundry) giveaway . . .


The guy I married has an insatiable sweet tooth.  He ate the chocolates Linda sent before I got home!  So I just had to go out and buy some more chocolate . . . Doesn't this bit of cake look just perfect on the new dishes?  Should I share . . . ?


I am so in love with these dishes!  Aren't they fun?


They remind me of a Picasso drawing, except it's done in red, not black . . . and it's not done by Picasso . . . mere details . . .


Linda also included this lovely glass heart ornament.  I tied the yellow ribbon that came with the chocolates as a reminder to my honey that there was a box of chocolates with the package that I didn't even get to see . . .   I rather like the contrast of the orangey-yellow with the red . . . I think I'll keep it like just like this . . .


A glass of cherry juice in honor of George Washington, who has a birthday in February . . .


And there's Oprah all decked out in red for February . . . Is she trying to tell me something . . . ?


The Swarovski swans have come out to play just in time . . .


. . . to remind me that they mate for life and don't let a box of chocolates get in the way of true love . . .
