My Valentine
Pink Heart Shaped Tea Cups!!!
As anyone who
knows me knows, my husband is my very own and true Valentine. I think at
times we make others a little sick to their stomachs actually. We always
get remarks like, "how long have you two been married, you act as though
you got married yesterday", "can you keep your hands off one
another", and "we can’t even take a picture because he is always
kissing you". I always smile to myself when I hear things like this
because for Eric and me it is just the way we are together. We have had
some beautiful Valentine's Days together over the years. The best one was
when we were living in Puerto Rico. He took me to the Wyndham
Casino and Hotel in Isla Verde. We ate at a rooftop
restaurant and we even visited the casino.
Casinos are not our thing but
the atmosphere was so captivating. Ladies in beautiful dresses and
gentlemen in splendid suits and beautiful and lavish surroundings. The
night was fabulous and he gave me a gold bracelet and he also bought me a star
that year. I know it is just really a novelty but all the same I felt he
loved me so much that he could buy me a star. He gave me a star, yes he
did that!!!
This year we had
to spend Valentine's Day apart but that is okay for we know that this is our
life. We will be together again and we will be just as happy as we always
have been. This year he got me a beautiful pink inside heart teacup and
saucer set for my tea. My daughter Tiffany and I have become quite the
afternoon tea drinkers. We love Twining's tea and especially love Prince of
Wales tea by Twining's.
So she and I have been enjoying our tea.
Now this came about
because of Pinterest.
Yeah, I love Pinterest and I want to make everything I see
and have all the beautiful things I see on Pinterest.
That does not happen much but with the tea cups and saucers, I had to have
them. I had mentioned it to him; OKAY I sent him the picture and said
"Can I have these PapapaPlease!
Of course he replied and said "is this a tea set"? Well the thing is
I have tons of tea sets but I did not have this one.
He once bought something and I said sweetie you haven't even used it. He looked at me with all the love in his heart and said "how long have we been married" to which I replied "for a long time", then he said. "How many tea pots do we own" and I said "too many to count". Then he really went for the jugular and said' "and how many times have I had tea" and I tried to protest by saying but I do enjoy my tea pots. I look at them every day and you know tried to pass them off as decor items. A girl never likes to loose. In the end I conceded and I let my prince win. You notice I say I let him win, although he did have a point.
But I digress, as
I do sometimes. So I got my beautiful tea cups and saucers and we love
them very much. They are prefect for Valentine's Day and really for me every
day. You know being a Girly Girl and all. He did well as he
always does. Oh and I forgot to tell you the best part. After he
asked if it was a tea set, he then emailed me to say: “anything you want my
sweet princess"! Yay me, I am married to such a wonderful
guy that loves me to pieces and truly he is my Valentine!
Here are my cups filled with delicious tea. One for me and one for my beautiful and loving Tiffany.
You did notice they are pink, right?
Hope everyone had a beautiful and happy Valentine's Day!
