Happy Feast Of St. Valentine!
Just a quick note to wish you all a most joyous St. Valentine's Day!
We celebrated this morning with our own little "love feast":
St. Valentine is waiting for the guests to arrive...
The table is set for the feast
Goodness! The world's smallest Valentine...for mom!
You could say my plate is full...how lovely!
Happy St. Valentine's Day from all of us!
Thoughts of love...how perfectly expressed by Mr. William Shakespeare:
Sonnet 116
Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove:
O no! it is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wandering bark,
Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come:
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved.
William Shakespeare
(1564 - 1616)

How beautiful! I see you found a little way to beat off the winter blahs and the stuck-at-home-sick blues...We did not have such a lovely spread, but we did have tea and scones with Devon cream and strawberry jam!
