Word for the Day - 2020

Heart

"There is no charm equal to
tenderness of heart."
~Jane Austen

Books, songs, and sonnets have been written with heart.

From Wikipedia: A heart is a muscular organ that pumps blood in various species.
Heart may also refer to:
  • Heart (symbol), a symbol (♥) representing love, the organ, or a card suit

It has become the symbol of Valentine's,
a day we will celebrate each February 14th.
It represents love, which many feel comes from the heart. 

The heart is tucked away deep inside of us.
Sometimes we wear it on our sleeve.
And on occasion I love including it in things I bake.
Have you ever noticed if you slice a strawberry
vertically it becomes a heart shape?
Most hearts you will see are red.
The symbol of heart health is the color red.

Celebrate the heart this week.
Celebrate Love from the Heart. 
Have an amazing week full of love.

Maybe that's why I love red so much at Valentine's Day - it's the symbol of heart health. These are Yummy desserts, and that's fun facts about the strawberry. Your cake in the first photo looks amazing, and is that a candle that has melted away? Always love to see your charming photos, Marilyn.

What beautiful examples of sweet treats, Marilyn! Such love has gone into the making of them and sharing them by hosting a special tea party is another way to show love. Wishing you a happy February. Thank you for your kind message send our way via my recent blog post.

You made that cake? Holy cow! I love using strawberries like hearts. Trouble is, in February any strawberry you buy here is white through the center!
