If your name is Liesl, every day is a good day for pink. So Valentine’s day is a *really* great day for pink, especially pink shoes. I didn’t even know Converse came in pink. This pair was a big hit not least because they were ‘tie shoes’.

We marked the day with pink porridge for breakfast (Patrick was not amused), the timely arrival of care packages (thanks!), and Belgian chocolate. Here’s hoping your day was great.
