| Love is in the air... |
I know. I know. I know. (The French repeat statements 3x for emphasis, and hey, like Sarah Turnbull, I'm Almost French). Sooooo...Valentine's Day is a Hallmark holiday, but that doesn't mean I don't love it. I do. I receive goofy cards like the one pictured above from my husband. (Note: we are both frogs). Maybe a bouquet of flowers? And a night out on the town. Goodbye yoga pants and gym shoes! Tomorrow night, I'll be wearing a dress, heels, and looking fifty shades of sexy.* Well, in my frog's eyes.
Don't get me wrong! I love cooking for my French family, but sometimes I need a break from the kitchen (every self -proclaimed frog princess does). And, sometimes, it's nice to have dinner as a couple sans les enfants. Enter Valentine's Day.
* Rumor has it the Fifty Shades movie is boring with a capital B and the actors have no chemistry what-so-ever. Personally, I'll skip this one in the theater. I'm looking forward to Trainwreck with Amy Schumer, which comes out this summer. Here is the PG-rated trailer:
Seriously? Why isn't this movie coming out sooner? Why? Why? Why? Why are they are torturing us with chips, dips, chains and whips when we all just want to laugh or get our romantic feels on?
On romantic feels: next week, starting Monday, I'm turning my blog over to five AMAZING people who will be sharing their love stories. (Three of them are in-- I hope the other two will pull through). Some of the stories are funny. Some are utterly romantic. Most importantly, they are true. Thanks to my memoir, I've connected with these lovely souls –– either via email, on Facebook, or Twitter. Nope. Didn't know them before, but I'm so very thankful that I know them now.
I can't wait to share the love!
And...on sharing the love. I took advantage of my $1.99 Kindle special on Amazon a few weeks ago. I bought four copies of my book to gift to you. Even if you've read my book, DO enter! You can send the email on to a friend. This offer is open to US residents only as the books were purchased on Amazon.com. But I do have a worldwide giveaway, too. One signed copy of SEVEN LETTERS is up for grabs! Enter below! Winners will be chosen on February 22nd, the day Venus and Mars come together. (No, I have no idea what this means, but it does sound epic!)
