My family is huge on sweets and for Valentine's Day we are treated with our favorite sugar induced treat! The newest member of the family gets extra this year for being such a great husband/son/brother!
What's your favorite Valentine dessert?
(picture not true to size of treat...tripple please!)
Need a couple ideas on what to get your Valentine? Fossil has some really good choices and who wouldn't want a unique, beautiful leather good from this vintage inspired maker? Maybe I'm a little partial because I worked at the Fossil Apparel Store for 3 years while in college, but who can deny such finds?
I couldn't resist! This is my little "niece" who I absolutely adore! This is typical of a fun filled, adventurous day with this cute curly haired tot! Julianna definitely entertains every second of the day! Who wouldn't fall in love with such a "Jewel!"

Doors open at 6:30, show starts at 7--in UNCC's Belk theater at Robinson Hall
I'm obviously a lover of coral, hence my blog title. Something about the color is so cheery and tropical! I have my fair share of coral collections, along with my other favorite- (remember my copper collection?) Stay tuned for a coral filled room...my next project is decorating a guest bedroom for a friend!
My Little Chloë is still a fan of her Panthers no matter what the standing is. She loves strutting her little Steve Smith jersey and being called "lil smitty," so she will never let them down! I, on the other hand am pulling for the Steelers!! "Black and Yellow, Black and Yellow!" I guess I always jump on the bandwagon. I lived in Pittsburgh last year and so I cheer for them proudly. (Even though I've cheered on the Packers in the past.) I usually root for the underdog or a team that I had some sort of connection to. End the end, I just wanna eat good greasy food and cheer on with great friends!
Anyone willing to take a bet with me?! ;) Nothing like some good competition to keep it interesting!
