Happy Valentine’s Day!

February 14, 2013 on 8:11 pm | In Chat | 26 Comments

Well, it’s almost over, but Happy Valentine’s Day anyway. I’m popping in to wish you cookies and milk!

And while I’m here I have three little tidbits for you. ‘Cause I LUV ya!

You probably already know this, but, you know those annoying word verification things at the end of some blog posts if you want to leave a comment? And you sit there squinting, trying to figure out the numbers in the picture that appears on half of the puzzle? Did you know that the blogger software can’t read the numbers in that picture to know if you typed the correct number in there? You can type anything you want for the numbers in the picture and the software will take it. Unfortunately, you still have to type in the correct letters for the other half of the puzzle. The picture below shows an example of an answer that will work, so save yourself some time in your comment leaving and try the little shortcut!

Here’s a cute little dog video. Keep an eye on the two dogs on the right when the video starts. And if you’re doing something you want to keep secret, make sure your dog’s not in the room — he’ll tell on you!

And, in light of the day of love, in case you haven’t seen it, here’s a super fun marriage proposal. Try not to cry.

Have a good weekend!
XOXO,
Anna

As my day winds down and I read your post , for you my dear Anna I will not enable word verification if and when I return to blogland. Enjoy what’s left of Valentine’s Day.

I didn’t know that about the numbers in the verification thing. Good to know as I have often, to no avail, tried to figure out what it’s supposed to be. Love the dog video; too funny.

Yum, cookies! Think if I’d been the girl in that video I might have made a complete fool of myself and ruined the effect :-)

Thanks so much for the word veri thing. Very helpful. If that wedding proposal thing is real… I don’t give the marriage 2 years! NOT the way to do it (or, certainly wouldn’t be for me).

Your double knitting – wow. As if your manifold talents weren’t enough!!!

Happy Love Day back at ya. Made me laugh with the doggies and then made me cry with the wedding video – enjoyed both very much :). Love the banner as well – you are so clever Ms. Anna :)

Hugs – Mrs. Farmhouse

I can’t imagine getting married like that, too old fashioned I guess—which doesn’t mean it didn’t make me smile and cry!

Hilarious dog video….

Oh my goodness, that wedding video was amazing. Look at all the planning that she didn’t have to do!! :o)

1. I suspected as much, because I never made any “mistakes” on the numbers….

2. I love that video. I love dogs….

3. I cried. Sorry. ;-)

Thanks for the tip! I’ll have to watch the wedding video when I need a good cry. :) Happy Valentine’s day!

The cookies look so yummy. I suspected that about the numbers when I took wild stabs at it and knew I was wrong but comments got published anyway.

The dog video is hilarious! We have a couple of guilty parties around here, so we recognize the behavior.

As usual Anna, you are a virtual fount of information. The cookies look so tasty, the dogs are hilarious, and the proposal looks like my worst nightmare.

Hi, hope you had a goo valentine’s day. Those cookies look pretty decadent. I nearly died laughing watching that dog video. It’s priceless. Thought I would tell you that I left my awful job. You know a job is bad when you leave without having another one to go to!!

The dog video was SO funny! Didn’t make it through the marriage proposal without my eyes swelling up … :)

Belated Happy Valentine’s day Anna! Great videos although I would have been totally overwhelmed by the wedding one if that was me. xx
