San Valentino


What do I love about San Valentino? The colors! Dean and I never celebrated Valentine's day. A couple of reasons......stress of trying to find something for each other and when we finally get something is the hard candies with the words on it, they are cute but.....(we are all grown up now).
So I woke up this morning and the only thing I can think to celebrate San Valentino is
Pink Lemonade, Raspberry, Snow Crystals and Pink Sugar Pearls, Yummy! No alcohol in the morning version:)
I actually think that finally I am giving My Deano a Valentine Gift. He will be going riding all weekend in the desert while I teach a soldering class. Go Deano!

Ciao for now
Rita

  2. Hi there Rita~ Looks delicious- Happy Valentines day! I wanted to stop by and let you know where I found the Italian sign you commented about above my sideboard. I found it in the kitchen section of Home Goods a couple years ago. My husband is half Sicilian - so as much as I love Frenchy stuff in my house- I gotta have some Italy love too!! :) I didn't know about the song- how neat is that? I just liked the saying and how welcoming it was for the dining space. Thanks for stopping by- hope you will come by and say hello again soon! :)

  5. It looks yummy to me Rita! Dale and I don't usually, but just the past three or four years, he has started getting me chocolates, and that is great with me. Quite honestly though, living with Dale is like V-Day most of the time, because he has such a giving heart and when I say I want something, he always says 'go for it'. I imagine your Dean is like that too.
    sending big hugs your way...
