“To be or not to be my Valentine?” – I must admit this is a celebration, we as a couple, have truly struggled with. Should we follow in the commercial craziness and acknowledge a day designed for Love, or should make it our own and spin it into something slightly more intimate and beautiful and definitely “us”? As there is no formula for Love, there is certainly no formula for us on how to spent this day, so we let each year be a spontaneous surprise and each other free of obligations.

Tenderness… It has no formality of shape or form. My expression of love however, has plenty of taste and the tender “Good morning” smile of breakfast in bed. I am surprising my dearest one with low calorie banana & dark chocolate vanilla muffins. There is something so irresistible with fresh bakes coming in bed straight from the oven. Aromas and fragrant bites of comfort that go straight to the heart. Tenderness in a cup of coffee, a muffin cupcake and hand-written words of love.
