♥ 10% off from now until Monday! Plus! Remember those ModCloth and Swap.com goodies that I said I’d give away to the first five sales? Be my next buyer and they’ll be yours! With Father’s Day coming up, wouldn’t a good bow tie or hankie {or a bow tie/hankie set} be a good investment? Just [...]

♥ Good afternoon, dears! Happy Hugo‘s birthday to you! Yesterday my most recent post for Goodwill Industries International went live, and I simply had to share. There are several little peeks into our new apartment and some fun ideas about how to decorate with Christmas lights – even though it’s nearly summer. Personally, I think [...]

♥ Just a quick note today to say Happy Mother’s Day. We’ll be heading over to my parents’ house today to work on our garden and share lots of food with my family. Enjoy your day, all of you Mommas out there. I hope the sun is shining as brilliantly where you are as it [...]
Flurries of Hearts

♥ February 14th is my favourite day to be in Portland. A lot of neat stuff happens in this city, especially for young people. But nothing trumps the fantastic feeling that swells up inside of me when I see the Bandit‘s hearts en mass. If ever you’re considering a trip to the biggest city in [...]

♥ Make something together to display in your home! You’ll spend time with one another while you make the item, and then for the rest of your lives together { or as long as you decide to keep it displayed } you’ll be reminded of that time you spent together and how productive you can [...]
No. 6!

♥ Look up new movies for the year! Mark on your calendar the opening dates of any that you know you’ll want to see together. We can’t wait for Moonrise Kingdom. First, it’s set in New England, our home sweet home. Next, it’s 1965 — same year as my novel { this year is also [...]

♥ Make more mixtapes { yes, still! } Sure, mixtapes may have been a huge hit amongst teens in the ’80s, but the mix — not necessarily in tape form — is an excellent way to show someone how you feel about them. These days a CD or a playlist is probably more relevant. Either way, [...]
No. 4 Way To Make Valentine’s Day Last All Year
Posted in Lists, The Holidays, tagged advice, date, how to, last, love, make, plan, relationship on February 7, 2012 | 5 Comments »
♥ Plan dates ahead of time – way ahead of time! Sit down with your honey when you have a little time. Pick one date each for every month remaining in the year, but don’t tell the other person what you’ve chosen! Write it down on a piece of paper and seal it in an envelope [...]
No. 3 Way To Make Valentine’s Day Last All Year

♥ Surprise your love by doing his/her chore! If there are certain things that your partner always tends to do { for example: Ryan always does the laundry, but I always do the vacuuming/cleaning } surprise them by doing this chore instead! There’s nothing more romantic than having an unintended night off because your partner [...]

♥ Learn how to dance together! Not only will scheduled dance classes give you something to look forward to as a couple, but once you get the steps down you’ll love the thrill of dancing together. I can’t think of a better way to enjoy each others’ company than by dancing a slow waltz. And [...]
