Sweet Love.......
Love is an Irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired
Happy Valentine's Day Everyone!!!



I made these Ginger biscuits with Vanilla Cream for my friend Carrie, but I made sure I ate a few warm straight out of the oven! They are really good!

Yesterday I got home to a gorgeous parcel from the very generous Mary Ann who hosted the ‘Oh So charming Valentine ATC swap’ and she included these Love candies, chocolates, the cute L-O-V-E candles plus an angel paper puncher and a gorgeous ATC she made for each and every one of us in the swap!
I also got 3 gorgeous ATCs from some talented woman! You can see all the ATCs here – the group even got a mention on WhipUp as being inspiring which was a huge thrill!
Mary Ann is onto her next fun project – she is hosting a Virtual Tea Party in April – come and join in on the fun!




I
also got a huge parcel from Sue my partner in the Pink & Brown swap. I was so excited to find so many gorgeous craft items, handmade paper, a vintage book for my boys, buttons, ribbons , the gorgeous pink vintage doily in the picture above and so much more! What a talented gal!! You can see everything here
She also included this gorgeous vintage tea cup – how pretty!! I love it!
Im so spoilt!!
Im so lucky to be part of this generous inspiring blogging community…

saying goodbye with a love quote....

Love is not finding someone you can live with but
finding someone you cant live without…..

visiting your blog is like a breath of fresh air. It is wonderful. It was lovely to see some of the pink and brown swap items..Cant wait to receive my parcel. We have had floods and a cyanide spill up the road so it will probably be a bit slow

Those biscuits look devine. Valentines day is such a wonderful day to cherish... it's a pity we need only have it on one day. I think the spreading of all things lovely and loving should be an everyday celebration. Lots of love, Nicoel xox.
