old college v day

waking: took marta's advice.
walk: trudge through snow. can't wear boots on valentines. wouldn't be right. 
break: what better way to share my love than with bagel + shmear. 
evening: a party of sorts. c-cakes + hearts. 
party: bring out the elmers + the cheap stuff. 
party: meredith 
party: frosting kristi.
party: toothpicks on c-cakes
midnight mail: thanks meg. wonderful suprise :)


has 'v day' emerged just this year? it seems that is all i (or anyone around me) wants to call it. i love it. a whole 2 syllables shorter. 

campus: less people, less enthusiastic, less red + pink, less love than i would have hoped for.  no lacking on my part, though.  i love love more with each annual 14th. 

finding out marta's surprise. can you believe it?

my valentines: cup of goodness from mere. hearty heart from j. remember the day we met? best day of my life, hands down. 10 geckos. bead ones.  oatmeal cookie from kristi. kit kats + nemo valentine from mom. store-boughts + homemades. thank you all, i love love. 

first blind date tomorrow.  permitting all implications from spectators.

how darling are you?! i can't believe how awesomely old school you made your vday. the adorable tstrap shoes, the shmear of love, the cupcakes, and the glitter. girl, you know how to throw a serious love fest. (you realize i am living my roommate college days vicariously through you!)

ps. good luck on your blind date. they aren't as bad as they might seem. (it's fun. you can be whoever you darn well please for the night!)

how funny. we did that very thing. cupcakes epitomize valentine's day.

no way meg. that's hilarious. our time apart hasn't taken our shared affinity for cupcakes completely out of us?
