Valentine's Day provides the perfect excuse to be over-the-top girly...not that we needed an excuse. There are just so many cute hearty, colorful, gorge things popping up this time of year!
We plan to make Conversation Heart Fudge for the girlfriends...
...and we definitely need these super cute measuring cups and spoons to be sure the recipe turns out perfectly. :)
It's the very first day of 2010 and if you do anything today, make sure you eat your black-eyed peas! Any good Southerner (HV has Southern roots...) knows that even just a spoonful of these beauties on New Year's Day will bring the best of luck and happiness the whole year through. So eat up!
We wish you the most beautiful, rewarding, prosperous, peaceful year so far.
Today is National Candy Cane Day! Yesterday we showed your our hands-down fave, here are a few more:
You'll be amazed to know that we spend $214 million on candy canes each year -- that's 2 billion of the gloriously sugary goodies!
We like to get ours at Spangler Candy...among other deeelish candies.
Let it be no secret that Christmas is Holiday Verve's most favorite holiday. And Christmas means candy canes!
I know what you're thinking, crusty, linty, boring old peppermint cc's from Santa's red pocket. Never! You will thank me later for this, as I am now introducing you to the best candy cane you will ever enjoy in life: Hershey's Chocolate Mint Candy Canes...
We had too many of these today! Ooochh-yum!
Holiday Verve has been very, very, very good this year. We've saved cats in trees, helped Grannies cross the street, and stopped bullies in their tracks. Here's a little list of the things we'd love to find in our stocking:
Green Porno by Isabella Rossellini - hilarious AND educational
Secret Message Writing Set - we do lead extremely glamourous and mysterious lives, you know
Tickets to see the new Sherlock Holmes movie
Buzzword Game - guess 10 clues in 45 seconds? mwahahahaaa, there's no game we can't master!
xoxo, HV
Ohhhh December. Winter and holidays and color and goodies. This is the month to enjoy! I choose to celebrate the holidays in my own way and not let the bah-humbug-it's-sooo-commercial attitude touch my spirit.
The holidays are what you make of them. And Holiday Verve loves nothing more than a jolly holiday. So dig down deep for your inner child and play with us! Every year is chock full of fun.
