Valentines, belated

Just before Valentines day my mister directed a Valentines promo for Samsung based on the concept of a love note. I've been a bit of a bad wife for not blogging it until now, so I am making amends! My mister and his directing partner created a beautiful installation for the video, which you can see here: It was a big deal for them, and I'm pretty proud.

As for the rest of Valentines...

and mushy peas of course!



A candle lit fish and chip dinner from our favourite local chippy; piping hot and still crispy from the fryer; the steamy sting of the vinegar hitting the back of your throat as you go to eat the first chip; divine. A long hot bath with lavender and epsom salts (my new beauty obsession)  a small amount of very good red wine and some silly washi tape love messages. Lovely. 

I'm a bit bah humbug about Valentines, but when your husband looks at you, with nothing but love and even a bit of awe in his eyes and says "you're brilliant", despite being slouched on the couch in wrinkled pyjama's, biscuit crumbs scattered on your swollen belly and wonky Nora Batty ankles propped on the table;  now that's love. Something I can celebrate. 


Bah humbug or not,  I hope yours was lovely too.
