Red Velvet Giveaway!

In celebration of 100 followers, I'm having a giveaway! I was thinking about what to give away and started thinking about Valentine's Day... which of course led me to think about dessert... which led me to my favorite dessert - red velvet cupcakes!

I love red velvet cake and would totally have it as my wedding cake if my fiance didn't vehemently disagree (we'll see who wins that one!).

I also love the red velvet whoopie pie mix from Stonewall Kitchen - described as "a New England speciality made with a southern twist." Of course, I had to try the mix and it is DELICIOUS and easy to make! So I'm giving away a box of the Red Velvet Whoopie Pie Mix!

But that is not all! I also recently discovered (and recently fell in L-O-V-E with) Sara Happ's lip scrub and learned that she has a Red Velvet Lip Scrub. It smells absolutely divine and makes your lips super soft!

And I will also throw in some other surprise treats!

How to enter:

1 entry - Become a living well follower! {mandatory}

1 entry - Tell me something you'd like to see on living well in the future!

I'll pick a winner on February 21!

And most importantly, a big thank you for following and reading! When I started this, I didn't think I'd have 1 reader, much less 100. I'm so happy to have gotten to know so many of you!!!

More Valentine's Day Love

Looking for another perfect Valentine's Day gift? These Yves Saint Laurent patent leather Love Ballerina flats are to-die-for. If you can find them! They are only available in beige or black on YSL.com - which is still a nice subtle "heart day" accent to wear on V-day!

Calling all brides! There is a Monique Lhuillier sale on The Aisle tomorrow (Monday)!

I am in love with the Lilly Pulitzer Dolly dress! I want it in every color, especially green. Come mid-March (when it is set to become available) I will be running to my local Lilly for one (or four!)

Waitin' on a Sunny Day

I'm feeling a little blue tonight... there is just SO much snow here and more on the way. I haven't been able to see my fiance today because of it and that's making me feel bluer. And work has been stressful and I'm just tired of it. Maybe it's a little bit of the regular ol' winter blues too. When I feel low, I try to do some little things to cheer myself up.

Paint my nails...

Have a cup of tea in a real tea cup and saucer....

Calling up a friend for some girl talk always does the trick...

And so does some retail therapy....

I also pop in Gossip Girl dvds and veg out on the couch. For some reason that show cheers me up!

And a (big) glass of wine doesn't hurt! (I'm drinking Marion - a blend of blackberry and grape wine - from Nashoba Valley Winery)

Now it's time for bed. A good night's sleep always makes me feel better too!

How do you cheer yourself up??

Here's to a better one tomorrow! xoxo
