Valentine's Day in China is something like nothing - unless you make it special. This year I made Valentine's Day Fortune Cookies!

Talk about spreading the love! Someone created this and left it hanging from a tree...such a generous thing to do.

I love many things. Travelling, trying new foods, Spanish wine...but at home I quietly love to document my life and my daughter's lives. I work hard to leave my daughters proof of this. Here you can follow me as I document my last little girls' "closet".
