Even edged in pink...thanks. tj

Here DV is tucked in under snow which is a good thing. I think this Arctic blast will be the first time all season we may actually hit zero tonight with wind chill putting us at -10. Snow has not been plentiful this season and temps bouncing from 40's down to 20's. I think the highest snowfall this season was about 6-7 inches and that melted quickly. However, the storm we had recently will most likely hang around for longer this time. Can't wait till spring warmth arrives. Julia

Librarian-gardner - what is that plant? Not familiar with it... I went to Trader Joe's a couple -3? weeks ago and right at the front door they had these gorgeous Hellebores in pots! 10 bucks! 6" pots, 12" high plants - phenomenal! I got 3 - all different - I have a couple of kinds in the ground, but i might keep these in pots to put by my front door in prime real estate when they bloom next winter. They are very moody looking... I don't have any roses blooming at the moment - pruning them all now - but the pictures you folks are showing are gorgeous! Happy Valentine's Day!

Rusty, thank you so much! I love love love these particular chocolates. Happy Valentine’s Day to all of you, whether or not you have a sweetheart, a memory, or just yourself. You are all MY Valentines. Is anyone else thinking of baking or making themselves a sweet treat? I am (but I also need to squeak into my jeans). I have a vg tiramisu recipe. Also recipies for chocolate cake, blondies, brownies, heart-shaped window cookies. How to decide…. Happy Valentine’s Day, Rusty and all. ❤️❤️❤️
