Happy Valentine's Day from San Valentino in Santa Maria in Cosmedin, a church in Rome (I've been laying in wait to use this photo for just such a blog entry since I took it over Christmas break). Nothing says "I love you" quite like a dessicated skull!
In France Valentine's Day is low key and mostly just for couples, so stores don't go all out with the pink and red decor like they do in the States (which is a welcome change!). I neither like nor hate this most Hallmark-y of holidays, but I still celebrated by going out with a bunch of fellow assistants for a decadent "café neige," a shot of espresso suspended between cream of white chocolate and chantilly. YUM.
