~ Love Is... ~ SCRUMP-DILLY-ISH-US!!!
Get out your best china & silver ... it deserves it!
Every now & then one must splurge ... you MUST try this
recipe ... it is over the moon exquisite!
Hubby has lost at least 15#. As a treat I decided to make a dessert ... he has to lose weight because of health.
I have lost 17# & so love my sweets, trust me! I don't have to lose weight but for an unknown reason, it is just happening. Do you see me complaining ... not one bit!
Take a white cake mix ... ANY old white cake mix. Bake as directed on box. Cool!
~ Luscious Lime Frosting ~
1 c. softened butter, yes real butter
1/4 c. fresh squeezed lime juice
5 c confectioners sugar
1 - 8 oz. frozen (Cool Whip) whipped topping, thawed
in a LARGE (yes) bowl beat butter & lime juice until blended. Add 1 c. at a time of confectioners sugar, until smooth. Add whipped topping, beating with mixer until combined. Take coconut flakes & pat them down into the frosting.
THEN ~ smother that plain ol' white cake with this elegant, scrumptuous, decadent frosting ... Take coconut flakes & pat them down into the frosting. THAT beauty is what you will enjoy ...
This one is for you CherryJelly-sis ... did you see that cherry garnish on top!
S L O W L Y the computer retrieval is coming around, this is NOT fun trying to find things, oh, did it ever DUMP our files.

~ Love Is... ~ Valentine's Pinks
This 1918 Haskell Coffin Swift's Premium Calendar print is one of my favorite vintage pieces ... the love between these two is so precious as her soldier cradles her in his loving arms.
Wm. Haskell Coffin was born in Charleston, SC in 1878. His illustrations graced many magazines.
I so love the sweet beauty he captured in each piece of art.
There is a gentle love & romance ...
... and he DOES deliver his in person, every single morning ...
I love you, honey! You are my true loving cupid ... FOCUS!!
