Though I didn't have any special Valentine's Day plans, I still made it a special day. Somehow the holiday made sure I was in an extra good mood, so even the simple stuff made me really excited.
I made myself some chai, which I tend to do on a daily basis these days. It's just so good! On special occasions I pop in some flower shaped marshmallows. The cake below, or more accurately: the whipped cream below, was a freebie from a shop I visited. Isn't that sweet?
These temperatures are perfect for knitting and crocheting. And the colors seemed perfect for the day.
My cat was lying in the weirdest position. Perhaps I should've taken a less close-up shot, that might have shown it better. Either way, she probably has that stunned look on her face because she didn't understand why we were laughing at her.
Like I said, it was a pretty normal day, but I felt really happy. Even more so when I found out I'd won an amazing giveaway over on Kayte's blog. But more on that later...
What did you do on Valentine's Day?
Aw, I love cats. Your one looks so funny in that position. My cat used to do so many things that made us laugh, and I swear she used to get angry at us for doing so!
ReplyDeleteGreat blog by the way, I'm now following xx
Haha yeah, they can have really pissed off looks on their faces!
DeleteAnd thanks so much! Great to hear:)
That sounds like a perfect day and I love the impression that your whole life is lived in perfectly harmonising colours!
ReplyDeleteI loved how all those pictures matched too! It wasn't that planned really, I guess you're right and I do live in harmonising colours:) I'll pay even more attention to that from now on, I bet I don't even notice most of the time.
Deletethis looks like the. perfect. valentine's day. seriously, i'd almost prefer it to the one i had! we went out, but it was rainy, and my shoes were hurtey, and the dinner was a ripoff. cozy nights in 4-eva.

Sorry to hear that! Staying in perhaps isn't as fancy as having dinner somewhere, but at least you know what's coming, right? And you can change shoes as often as you'd like;)
DeleteHope you still enjoyed yourself!
the cake looks so yummy! And chai is delicious! What a sweet little day you must've had!

Mmm chai. And cute kitty!
ReplyDeleteThat mug is adorable! I love how every one of the pictures includes the color pink. =)
ReplyDeleteThanks! And that's my favorite mug! Well, one of a few favorites probably... It sounds so posh, but I use it exclusively for chai;)
DeleteYour cat is such a cutie! I wish I wasn't allergic, I'd love a kitten. The chai and cake look delicious too!
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a nice Valentine's Day, lady! Ron and I decided to stay in and cook dinner. We didn't want to fight the crowds at any restaurant. It was simple and sweet :) ... Your cat is so cute!
