Candy & Cards

What the......
When did Love hearts go weird!!!
Over the years I have accepted the changes that they have brought in slowly, like "bonnie lass" and "Text me", I did feel "fax me" was behind the times when that came out, and smile every time it crops up, however, last night I found some love hearts in my tote that I had stashed away for a weekend away (and forgot about) so me and Ben devoured them watching the "secret millionaire" *FYI.. I need to buy tissues...* Anywho, we normally read each one first and if its appropriate to each other, hand it over, but when we came across these two last night we were like "who would these even be appropriate too? Unless your name was Jo and you were particularly happy that day, or Julie and a mum (ok, I know that last one is slang, I wasn't born in a bubble)
Love hearts are just not the same. Which has lead me to ask the next question....
Where has all the romance gone!?
Me and Ben have decided that with the help of our families (if they are willing) We want to have a "date night". When you have a 1 year old "romance" can somewhat dwindle. So we have decided that once a month *after Weigh in!* We will have dinner out or go to a movie, or even a glass of vino by the waterside, whatever, but something! I think it will be good for us.
I wonder if we will do it, keep it up and enjoy it?

lol @ those love hearts!
****************
So.. Rach bought me a cuttle bug embossing folder in Swiss dot.
I { HEART } THIS ITEM SOOO MUCH!
I don't think life will be the same.
Ben doesn't appreciate me dot swissing his post - but I firmly stand by my belief that dot Swiss makes horrible post easier to deal with!
Anyway - So, I had a few cards to make, and it seemed appropriate (necessary) for me to dotswiss some Kraft and white before making them, and I love the results.
What did we do before this texture?!
I think Bazzill should release Kraft in Dotted Swiss like NOW.
If you read my blog Mr Bazzill (lol) Please heed that advice.
Anyway - I'd better go, I have a small child in the corner of the room head to toe in egg mayonnaise and pombear crisps that needs some attention!

Those hearts are so strange to me! They must be sayings we don't have in the US. What do they mean??? :)
