anyone can be passionate, but it takes real lovers to be silly.


How did you celebrate Valentine's Day this year?

My Valentine's was nice and low-key. Since my boyfriend isn't big on the holiday in general, it was up to me to take the reins. All I wanted was to spend the night with him and show him how much he means to me. So, I cooked him dinner - a heart shaped pizza! I spoiled him with food (even though I am not the world's best cook). Everything actually turned out pretty well. It was all the romance I needed! 

As for the picture posted above: It has been saved on my computer for ages, and given the time of year, I simply had to post it! I love that fairy tale moment, her big poufy dress, and of course, that perfect kiss. What scene could be more romantic?

And, since I am in an especially romantic mood at the moment, I leave you with a quote from my favourite poet.

"Familiar acts are beautiful through love."
- Percy Bysshe Shelley

What are your plans for the weekend?

    The title of this post is really, really so true. True love should be being unafraid to be oneself.

    Oh how sweet! The simplest Valentine's celebrations are the greatest ones. Nothing's better than a home-cooked meal! What a gorgeous picture, too :)
