Are you ready for Valentine’s Day this weekend? If not, here’s a little help: a Valentine’s day madlib for you to download and give to your special someone.
The PDF includes the madlib (above) and a cute heart pattern for the back of your card (designed by yours truly). I ran a sheet of cardstock through my printer twice (once for the front, and once for the back), and then cut it out. Enjoy!
Madlibs remind me of the grade school days when we’d come home with a shoebox full of special messages and candy. Around here, we’ve upgraded from conversation hearts and red hots to chocolate mousse. I have all my ingredients ready to go.
By the way, if you are looking for a good chocolate mousse recipe, Hershey’s Chocolate Lover’s Mousse for Two is my go-to recipe when I’m short on time and don’t want to fuss with the egg yolks. It uses 1/2 tsp of gelatin instead and makes just enough for 2. However, if you are craving the real thing, I can also vouch for Martha Stewart’s bittersweet chocolate mousse. Extra work, but extra good…
Do you do anything special for Valentine’s Day?

The fudge is ready; the presents are wrapped. Wishes have been made. We will be loading up the cars here in a little bit to make the short drive to our parent’s house. I’ll be signing off here for a few days while we spend time with family, open gifts, and eat too many sweets.
Yesterday, we took part in our annual Christmas tradition: the making of the Christmas tags. For the past 5 years or so, my husband and I have collaborated on our gift tags. Some years they’ve been elaborate. Other years, more simple. However, I think this year might just be my favorite.
All of the presents have a North Pole shipping theme. We wrapped them in two shades of brown kraft paper and tied them with red and white ribbons. My husband gets a ton of credit on the design execution. I was busy tying all the bows.
The main label looks like this:
However, my favorite part are the Christmas shipping stickers. They are extremely silly (like us).
We’d love to share our Christmas stickers with you as a present from the Lee-Creel family. You can download them here. The download includes a 8 1/2″ x 11″ sheet with several different sizes. We print them on full sheet white label paper and cut them out using a paper cutter. Enjoy! (These are for personal, non-commercial use only. Thanks for your understanding.)
May you have a wonderful holiday full of many good things and unexpected blessings. See you soon!
