We are finishing up what Simone has dubbed "a week of love". She has always had a special affinity for Valentines Day, and this year we celebrated it more as a mini-season, rather than just one day. Last week both she and I wore pink or red each day in the run up to Valentine's Day. On Friday, Tony an I woke up to a special surprise-- during the night Simone decorated the staircase and kitchen with homemade decorations all on her own. It was so sweet, and made us feel so loved! We then spent the evening having a relaxing dinner at home and some small gifts for each other. It was perfect.

Special Valentine treat for daddy -- smoked blue cheese with honeycomb and port.

But that's not all... we wrapped up our week with a Valentine's tea at the Historic Rosemont Manor. Simone invited a friend and we had a great time tasting new teas and touring the property.
 |
| Such a pretty table! |
Three pretty courses, each with a tea pairing that was just right!
 |
| My sentiments exactly! |
A very memorable Valentine's week indeed. WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH, SIMONE. YOU ARE OUR HEART AND SOUL!
