So here I am, sitting here doing my usual act of staring aimlessly around the room until inspiration smacks me hard straight in the face, when suddenly my eyes focus on my calender. February?! 2 days until February??! Clearly there has been some sort of mistake. You see, it's only just been New Year - it can't be a new month already. Is anyone else experiencing this warp speed too? It's beginning to scare me!

But I suppose if it is to be a new month already, and February in particular, we had better start preparing for that wonderful holiday - Valentines Day. Now I personally have never been particularly fussed about Valentines Day myself....but then I never really have anyone special to spend it with. Most of the time I get to celebrate it by rolling my eyes and hiding from my mushy "attached" friends who seem to love nothing more than looking at me pitifully like a lost little puppy and offering advice on how to snare a man because it's (apparently) so awful to be without one. Right.

Well, I beg to differ. I don't need advice - what I need is a love potion!! Seriously, where's the harm in a little gentle persuasion? Honestly though, the only thing I miss about not having someone to share Valentines day with is the gifts.... so no, I'm not looking for a fella this year but I certainly wouldn't say no to an anonymous, surprise box of minty chocolate! *wink, nudge* I swear I'll act surprised.

Luckily, in exchange, I do have a handful of these awesome Valentine inspired eco bags to share with you all in time for the big day (see, I'm not anti-romance!) - just head on over to the online store to grab one for yourself (or your one true love, perhaps?). Click here for a direct link.

Hugs and lots and lots of kisses and mushy stuff,
