happy valentine's day

To be honest I'm always dismayed by the lack of enthusiasm for Valentine's Day. I know it's a Hallmark Holiday, and people are cynical, and it sucks for single people, and the expectations for a good valentine's day can be too much, and too much pink and red makes some people want to puke, but I CAN'T GET ENOUGH.

So I do my best to spread the cheer :)
Today, I made those cupcakes to give out to people in my dorm building.
They're strawberry and chocolate marble with pink vanilla icing and white hearts.

Yummm!

And I'm not the only one with Valentine's Day cheer - a friend was giving out these lollipops :]

And to wear today, even though it's Sunday and all that's on the agenda is cupcake baking and distributing and lots of homework, I made a Valentine's Day dress.
(Sans cardigan)

Whole outfit:
And see, it even has a cute little heart cut-out
 Close up it's only sort of shoddy:
And the shoes.

Question of the day: How do you feel about Valentine's Day?
Follow-up: How do you feel about the movie, Valentine's Day?
Oh, and of course, Happy Chinese New Year!
 
Or maybe your prefer this tiger
Or.....maybe not.

love (and some extra love today!) and right triangles,
april

neon yellow, duh

So I know I said this would be up on my etsy daaays ago, but I fail at deadlines. But the important thing is, it's up now! :) And it's my favorite one :]
Get it HERE.

PS: From now on, I'll be doing a For-Sale-On-Etsy post only on Sundays.

love and right triangles,
