You can’t help yourself right? Your mind goes straight to the gutter.

True love in a bottle. It’s no joke now—I mean it! (Anybody wanna peanut?)
Austin’s Alamo Drafthouse just launched The Bottle of Wits. It’s a celebration of wine and The Princess Bride! They’re introducing the Inconceivable Cab and As You Wish White in honor of The Princess Bride’s 25th anniversary this year. (Geez really, has it been that long?) I. Am. Giddy!
In addition to the two wines, Alamo is offering some cleverly designed merchandise (that I must get my hands on) and will be hosting a nationwide tour of a Princess Bride Quote-Along.
It’s a Valentine’s Day miracle. The online shop opens up today so you can bring Wesley, Buttercup, Fezzik, the whole gang, to your table.

Happy Valentine’s Day! On a day such as this it only makes sense to ask, Wanna spoon?
Top any gift to your favorite snuggler and make your intentions clear. It’s a letterpressed wooden spoon. So cute! Made by one of my favorite little Etsy shops, Lauren Essl’s Blue Eye Brown Eye.
Happy spooning!

More Love by TheLoveShop
Gifts that express love all year long are quite possibly the sweetest gifts you can give. And what easier way to do that than with a piece of art?
TheLoveShop is filled with amorous, inspirational, and happy sayings creatively rendered and embellished by the lovely JJ St. James.
After facing down a very trying time in her life, the Australian designer chose to focus on love—joy, peace, happiness, gratitude—and created The Love Shop to share that love. I’m so glad she did!
Pass it on by gifting a lovely print to someone you love. I can’t get enough of the top print titled More Love. More indeed!
