Imagine.

After The Chew I did something I've been wanting to do for years and years. I couldn't believe that with all the times I've been to New York City, I've NEVER been to Strawberry Fields in Central Park. Being that it's February, it wasn't the most beautiful it could be, but I got the idea. Obviously I'm a big Beatles fan, so this was an awesome experience for me. On December 8, 1980, John Lennon was shot and killed while walking into his apartment at The Dakota. In 1985, Strawberry Fields was formed directly across the street in Central Park. It's a beautiful memorial to Mr. Lennon and just a wonderful thing to see. In the summer and during his birth and death dates the imagine mosaic is filled with flowers and memorabilia all in honor of Lennon and his life.

Getting in the Spirit.

I started my own holiday decorating yesterday! I bought the cutest gold mini tree from Target, then added my collection of peacock ornaments. I accidentally bought four new ones yesterday at Walmart--how could I not, they were $1.50 each, and super cute. One day I plan to have a big tree decorated in all my peacock ornaments, with beautiful peacock colored ornaments. Thankfully peacock has been kind of in lately, so I've been lucky finding some great decorations.

My second mini tree is for at work. I always like to decorate my office for each holiday. I figure, I spent most of my waking week hours there so why not make it homey? This tree has my Beatles ornaments and these cute little peace signs my old boss bought me! They're from 10,000 Villages and imported from Bangladesh!

Nothing crazy, but enough for me!

One of my Walmart ornaments--most of the rest are from Pier 1.

Looks much better with the lights plugged in.

Valentine's Day.

Alright, I caved in and decided to wish everyone a 

Happy Valentines Day!

Although I do believe that if you love someone, every day should be like today,

and if you're alone, you should love and appreciate yourself all day, every day.

So, enjoy this extra bit of love today!
