Happy Valentine's Day!

This is one day of the year when Zar and Tessie agree not to disagree. For some reason, there is a truce every February 14th.

Mind you, I am not complaining. It just tends to make me nervous to see the two of them with their heads together....

They crowded into the Valentine's Day bag that I made years and years ago. Zar's drinking out of my cup and Tessie has Walter's. They don't care what the mug says on the outside. It's what's inside that counts.

Zar actually sprung for a box of chocolates for Tessie....So what did Tessie do? She squeezed every one of them flat!

I told her that it wasn't polite to squeeze the chocolates to see what flavor they were.

She replied, "Who cares what flavor they are? I just wanted to see if any of them had jewelry inside!"

Then, "Nope. Balthazar, you are still a cheapskate!"

OK....End of truce. I will probably spend the rest of the day mediating their latest quarrel. I now need to go separate the two of them and send them to opposite corners of the house.

So much for Happy Valentine's Day.... I hope that yours is happy! Mini hugs and kisses to all of you!

Thank you so much for the votes. I appreciate every one! Please keep going back to the top of the page and poking the buttons.

See you tomorrow.

Happy Valentine's day, Casey and also to Tessie and Zar and all the other bloggers! I love that little scene inside the bag and Tessie looking for jewelry is just so in character. So like Tessie!

Happy V-day, Casey!

Tessie and Zar sound like an old married couple, to me. Always fighting, but I bet they'd stick up for each other if someone else picked on them.

This is totally unrelated to today's post, but I went to Michaels today and bought 10 of those bamboo place mats you mentioned a whike back for flooring for my Fairfield! I was so excited, I tried to post on the Greenleaf forum, so I could post a picture, but for some reason my iPad wont let me type on there... So thank you for your tip! It made me so happy.

leahelizabeth, do be aware that these do need a lot of sanding to make the floor completely flat. You might not want to use them on a whole house unless you have a power sander.
