Fuzzy heart
Boy overseeing progress
The ink went on a bit thick, and the notebooks spent a few days sitting out to dry. Boy inspected for wetness daily. www.lovelihood.com

This year's provisions for Valentine card exchanges sit waiting for fulfillment in the fancy little foil-lined box that once held a few dozen Parisian macarons.
Lunar surface
The crayons, purchased when on deep discount in Texas for just this type of occasion, evidently suffered a little from the time they spent in the shipping container in transit to Seattle. Pockmarks aside, they seem to function fine as drawing tools. www.lovelihood.com
Crayons before heat
The silicone mold, intended for chocolate making, sits waiting for the oven to preheat. Once they'd melted to a fast-running liquid and then cooled to semi-glossy solid state, they popped out rather easily. www.lovelihood.com
Little notebooks, all in a row
The spines, after stitching, were treated to a binding of colored artist tape. www.lovelihood.com

I called off my weekly long run today, on account of sickness (more fear of getting really sick than actual sickness) and spent my day off stitching the lining onto the curtain panel (yes, still) and cranking out some Valentine goodies. And I was unreasonably happy to find that there were leftovers in the fridge that would serve nicely as lunch. All in all, a mighty fine day.
