A Happy Valentine's Day, Indeed.

Posted by Miss Magnolia at 11:00 AM
Yesterday was an overwhelming day.  I had a ton to do, it was raining, and day 1 of the Paleo challenge. (more on that later).

My doorbell rang.  I never get unexpected visitors.  It was the mailman...I'm sure he was cussing me because the one day I have a package too big for the mailbox, it's raining.

It was my Valentine's Day Swap package from Emily at Finding Bliss!  Prizes in the mail bring joy to my little heart. 



When I opened it and saw my gifts, I literally did a happy dance in my kitchen!


Almond flour, Caribou coffee, and the perfect card.  Emily was very thoughtful to include the almond flour, because she knows I'm now Paleo and it's an essential in Paleo baking! (I actually almost bought some the same day I recieved the package, but was too cheap.)


How cute is this card!


Thanks so much, Emily!  It is the perfect Valentine's package and really made my day. :)

And thanks Christina for hosting the swap.

Happy Valentine's Day, y'all!


What would your perfect Valentine's package contain?

      How about a man holding a package of wine and homemade choc chip cookies?!? Sounds nice to me!

    What a perfect paleo care package! I actually have never bought almond flour because I am too cheap and had no idea what to do with it. I can't wait to see what you come up with! Also, that card is PRICELESS. love it!

    My perfect Valentine's package would contain a TON of almond butter. And cash. :)

      I've been Paleo now for 3 days, and can't imagine life without almond butter! I'm thinking maybe pancakes with the almond flour?!? I pinned a few other recipes using it, so we will see.

    I have many friends who are on the Paleo diet, and they seem to really enjoy it! My perfect Valentine's day package would contain great craft beer and artisan cheeses! Nom

      Craft beer! That's a big "no no" on paleo. :( I think my cheats over the next 6 weeks will likely be beer cheats.
