Writerly Wednesday AND Did You know AND Denise's Challenge

What is your sentence, example, definition or synonym for:

Example: She bought her inamorato a Valentine's Day card.

Did you know, that Valentine's Day began to be associated with love and romance, in the Middle Ages, largely thanks to the works of poets like Geoffrey Chaucer? By the 14th century, it had become customary to exchange love notes and tokens of affection on February 14, called Valentine's Day for St. Valentine.

AND

She had waited for a sign for seven long, lonely days. Suddenly, a conspiracy of ravens rose cawing in the air. It was time. Nature would take back her own.

Ketch-Up Tuesday

Did you celebrate Valentine's Day, and if so, how?

We had a good one. We went to Shelton Vineyard and had a delicious lunch.As we left we were given a rose and truffles and macaroons. Oh my gosh, the macaroons where the best I've ever had. Usually, it's the sweet cream flavor that comes through but with these it was the coconut. I ordered flatbread pizza and soup. The HH got a burger and fries and the price was about what we spend on breakfast at our go-to breakfast establishment. Both reasonable and delicious.

ROSES, ROSES AND MORE ROSES

From my valentine:)

Also from my valentine;)

And Shelton's Vineyard's Strawberry Rose Spritzer recipe

That's all, blogger buds.

It's Ketch-Up Day

Wishing you a day filled with happiness and chocolate, Blogger Buds.

We got a Valentine from our great nephew and niece. Isn't it the sweetest?

This balloon was left from the grands' birthday where it had made a beeline for the ceiling. Instead of getting out the ladder we just waited for it to run out of gas. It lasted till just recently. On the last day of it's life, it totally freaked me out.I kept finding it in different rooms of the house.Finally, when it hit the living room, the HH ended it.RIP little balloon.

Good bud, D.L. Finn got me this for Christmas. Actually she and her HH made it. Isn't it beautiful? Why am I just now blogging about it? I thought maybe it had been damaged in shipping because I couldn't get it to light up after turning on the on-off switch. The only thing damaged was my brain:) I finally realized, that I hadn't pulled the tab off the battery.😀

My son and grand went to a father and daughter dance over the weekend.

And last but not least, let's hope my readers are more excited about my stories than Frank is. 😄
