Valentine’s Day is all about love. What a special thing to celebrate! Despite what romantic comedies and diamond advertisements you’ve seen, love isn’t always about two people in a relationship. This Valentine’s Day, Maybe you are celebrating the steps you’ve taken towards loving yourself. Taking the time to acknowledge what serves you and what doesn’t, what makes you feel joy and what makes you feel like the best version of yourself. Celebrate the love that your body gives you! Another day to breathe in and out, another day that your body carries you to the beauty that is your life. Celebrate THAT love today. Look back at how far you’ve come! Look forward to where you will be! Another amazing thing about love, is that it is everywhere – especially in your friends. Friends seems like such a underwhelming word for these people in your life, the ones you talk to daily, the ones you’ve known for years of your life. Celebrate them this year. Thank them for all they’ve done for you, whether they know it or not. Here’s a little blog on how to throw a love party. The best kind of party!

Not only are they like, the best cupcakes in existence, but baking with your friends is always fun.
Bake your own pizzas… (in the shape of a heart if you so choose)
