Valentine's Day Munich Walk


This morning, I hiked around my snowy Munich neighborhood on a quest for fresh, delicious, celebratory photos for my Creative Courage e-course


and I found so many yummy Valentine's Day treats, I knew I had to share them with you here too!


Valentine's Day is not a very big holiday in Germany yet,


but I did manage to find some shops that were making their best effort (albeit at a price!)


The florist around the corner had lovely candle, flower petal, frozen ice displays


a gorgeous way to creatively use our sub zero temperatures.


Many florists were trying hard to get everyone in a Valentine's Day spirit


and some of them actually had up reminder signs - "nicht vergessen"!


I'm looking forward to a Valentine's Day family afternoon tea, then a cozy evening dinner with my sweetie, including tapas, shrimp salad, pink champagne, a bit of 85% chocolate, and a new DVD of Woody Allen's "Midnight in Paris." Have you seen this movie? Florian hasn't yet, but I saw it in Lisbon, and I loved it!

I wish you a wonderful Valentine's Day too, and I hope you are celebrating with yourself, with friends, with family, with your loved ones! I'm sure you will be doing something nice - perhaps involving flowers, a fun shop or cafe, a long, hot bath, or a delicious meal - I'd love to hear about it!

What are your special Valentine's Day plans or traditions?

Beautiful ice bowls, enjoy Midnight in Paris, a great film. Your Barcelona pics are wonderful.

Oh, everything looks so beautifully delicious! And so German! :-)

Hubby made some orange creme brulee last night in anticipation of cooking a deelicious dinner of scallops, lamb chops, baby potatoes and asparagus! I guess I'll have to give him a big kiss for all of that! :-)

Hope your night was lovely!

Oh what a wonderful walk. Let's see we have Valentine's dinner together and tea together-the whole fam; got some V-Day tulips, poured chocolate and I knitted some hearts for the kids (w/bells inside).
Happy Weekend!
