We had a low-key Valentine’s day this year. I woke up to this adorable Valentine’s day card from Hubby. I really appreciated it because it had a long and meaningful handwritten note inside…Love Letters were pretty common when we first started dating but after nearly 11 years of marriage they’re much rarer and even more precious:
Of course I HAD to wear my Old Navy Heart Sweater (this year’s version in Grey or Camel):
Inspired by Catalina Su, I made myself a healthy breakfast (Turkey Breast, Red Onions, 1 yolk & 2 whites topped with Sri Racha):
This was unfortunately offset by the cookies I consumed later on in the day – I made them for my family BUT had to sample a few….
I followed Pioneer Woman’s Malted Milk Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe – substituting Milo for the Malted Milk. These cookies were unbelievably easy to make – they are so thin and crispy – and taste WAY too good to resist!
How was your Valentine’s Day? Hope you had a great one!
I have the same sweater — I totally should have worn it yesterday! xohttp://allthingsprettyandlittle.blogspot.com/
We're heart-sweater twins! I love the grey heart sweater ON has for sale now – maybe I should buy it for next year LOL!
Happy Valentines day! I just came across your blog and it's very cute 🙂 Would you like to follow each other? <3myunbuttonedblazer.blogspot.com
Happy Valentines Day to you too – thanks for stopping by. I'll definitely check out your blog.
Ella! Where is that adorable Twitter handle mug from? I love it. And low-key Valentine's Days are my style too… way less stressful than trying to go out, in my opinion.xo, alison*elle
I always love celebrating Valentine's day – but not necessarily on the exact day (too commercial with the set menus etc). The mug is a McCafe one from the SCCTO conference I went to last year. McDonalds sent it out to all the participants – I absolutely love it for hot chocolate or green tea 🙂
Here's what it looks like on the other side: http://instagram.com/p/TAIJU3KWLL/
