Happy Valentine Weekend

 Pre-Valentine Dinner Thursday


Valentine-themed treats: the cherries were packaged in a heart=shaped box.

A Valentine Critter


Shamelessly stolen from the internet for Eileen’s weekly critters.

More Valentine Stuff

Fridge magnet of the week.

As always with the elusive artist Bansky, it’s not clear what these mean as Valentines.

A recent Bansky mural at the Royal Courts in London, September, 2025. Already covered up.

  1. This post has such a charming mix of things. I like the Valentine touches alongside the critter and the art, it makes for a fun and thoughtful weekend snapshot. The pink clouds at the end are a perfect touch.

  2. Oh I would love a cheese burger. Bansky can tell a story with art. Have a nice Valentine's day.

  3. Oh what a cute squirrel (shamelessly stolen or not, I like it).
    I have not seen these Banksy murals although I lived in Bristol (UK) where he's from, for 20 years. Like you, I don't see the connection with Valentine's Day.
    Beautiful pink clouds! (I see you have snow in Michigan).
    Have a lovely weekend,
    Lisca

  6. Lots of serendipity here in your post, Mae! We prepped yesterday for today's Valentine's Day meal, and even with both of us cooking, the prep took two hours. Hopefully, our meal will be as lovely as your cherries and macarons and hamburgers!

  7. Happy Valentine's Day to you Mae. Those cheeseburgers look good. That's one thing that I never have in the winter. Boy would I like one now. Grin. Hope you have some more tasty food and a great weekend.
