thpecialth: alphabet thoup, crockpot mathala beef thtew, B-L-T pizza, and banoffi pie w/ burnt toffee

It's a month to Valentine's Day and us slugs are already getting all mushypuffypoo. Yeah. Mushy slugs 'r' us. 

Have you ever been in love? Have you ever been truly happy? Have you ever had a wonderful, intense connection with someone only to stupidly let them go? And then all you can do, four years later, is stalk their Facebook photos and play Best I Ever Had on repeat, alone, in a dim leaky batcave, with only a kidnapped alley cat for company.

Sorreh. The skies have been rather grey lately what. OK we promise the posts will be more lighthearted in the weeks leading up to V Day. Let's put aside all that emo moping & start afresh, shall we.

Nothing like starting a fresh day with a fresh bouquet of basil.
