I hope you had a Happy Valentines day! Of course, I look at it the same way I look at everyday…a chance to be creative! Do you have someone in your life who loves a certain color? Do they wear the color all the time, buy things in that color when they have a choice, and do they want to paint their bedroom that color too??
Well, Dave loves ORANGE…and since he deserves a special meal, I packed him an orange lunch on Valentines Day! 
Everything was packed in his bag, so it was a surprise when he opened it! There was orange juice, goldfish crackers, mac & cheese, carrots, jello, cheese sticks, orange crackers, orange starbursts…and of course an orange! I wanted to make it extra special, so I added some corny lines to each of the food items, like this…
Get it?? I “carrot” about you A LOT…like “I care about you a lot”. Like I said…really corny. I used the great new Post-It labels that you can cut into any size to make it stick to the items.
If someone you know loves YELLOW – think about bananas, lemonade, corn, pineapple and egg salad!
If someone you know loves GREEN – think about green apples, string beans, wasabi peas and a spinach salad!
If someone you know loves RED – think about pasta with tomato sauce, cherries, twizzlers, strawberries and red velvet cupcakes!
Get creative! Good luck if the person in your life loves HOT PINK!
Before I go, check out the amazing photo of Simone wearing the elephant hat I crocheted for her. Isn’t she the most precious thing you’ve ever seen?
