Happy Valentine's Day!
One way to keep going through February (apparently the northern hemisphere's least favourite month, and definitely mine) is to celebrate anything and everything - so let's turn the world pink and red this week for Valentine's Day!

A Little Something ...
Won't You?
By Shel Silverstein Barbara's eyes are blue as azure,
But she is in love with Freddy. Karen's sweet, but Harry has her. Gentle Jane is going steady. Carol hates me. So does May. Abigail will not be mine. Nancy lives too far away... Won't you be my Valentine? * * * *
It didn’t matter how big our house was; it mattered that there was love in it.
Peter Buffett The law of love could be best understood and learned through little children.
Mahatma Gandhi
