Although Valentine’s Day has come and gone, I sincerely hope the day’s intended sweetness lingers in your souls. On the afternoon of Valentine’s Day, I caught a glimpse of our new neighbor carrying a bouquet of flowers into the house…aww! I didn’t know he was so sweet!

Speaking of patience, PLEASE NOTE: pingbacks are not working properly this week. Please comment on this post and add your link, so I don’t miss your post! I will add your link to my roundup so others can enjoy 🙂
For this week’s SWEET challenge, share your creative ideas and photos. You don’t have to show us actual sweets unless you choose to but please share what is sweet to you!
The Attraction of Sweet Nectar
“Look past your thoughts so you may drink the pure nectar of this moment.” ~ Rumi
Chocolate is my sweet nectar!
The Sweet Scents of Flowers
“Sweet flowers are slow and weeds make haste.” William Shakespeare
Winter’s Sugar-Coated Frosting
“Do you want it sugar-coated, or right between the eyes?” ~ Quinn (Harrison Ford), “Six Days, Seven Nights”
I keep promising fewer pics of snow and ice, but Winter is still alive and well. It is February after all. I caught this first image the other day–look at those frosty spikes on the fence. Reminds me of rock candy.
I found this image in my archives. I searched high and low for old dilapidated barns last Fall, with not much luck. This one demonstrates the sweet success of finding the perfect image for photo challenges.
The Sweetest Furry Faces
“That it will never come again, is what makes life so sweet.” ~ Emily Dickinson
