Friday Finds - V-Day Edition

My limited edition Heart Soap

I am not a huge Valentine's Day nut - in fact I have been anti-V-day for many years (yes, I might still be bitter about the fact that the only V-Day carnations I got in high school came from friends) but I am starting to change my tune....slightly. Cute V-Day related items kinda help. Here are some of my picks for V-Day (I hope my Mister is reading this).

Valentine's Day Butterfly from Bug Under Glass

This Little Light Locket from Cosmic Girl

eco friendly felted bowl from The Fuzzy Monkey

Custom Heart Sampler from Miniature Rhino

R.I.P. Wesley

WESLEY

I am a bit emotional today. This morning I discovered one of our fish - Wesley (a six-lined wrasse - Pseudocheilinus hexataenia) dead on our buffet...and I cried...a lot.

This is what Wesley looked like....(pic from Reefs.org Members Aquariums)

Of course I called Mister blubbering about Wesley. We realized that she must have jumped out last night when Mister opened the lid to the tank to check on some things (which makes both of us feel awful, if only we had noticed...). Some might think I am over reacting but these fishies are the only pets that Mister and I have and we love them. I know this sounds crazy but our fish seem to have personalities. It makes them more lovable and oh how I loved Wesley.

Tonight, Mister and I are going to have a little ceremony and bury her in the backyard (I have never been much of a fish flusher - it just doesn't seem right to me). RIP Wesley!!!!
