Girl RisingHD Closed Captioning
Jenny Lee, Richard E. Robbins, Gareth Smith & Chris Wilcha
Open iTunes to preview, buy, and download this movie.
Plot Summary
From Academy Award-nominated director Richard E. Robbins, the award-winning producers of The Documentary Group and Paul G. Allen's Vulcan Productions, strategic partner, Intel Corporation, and distribution partners CNN Films and Gathr, comes Girl Rising - an innovative new feature film about the power of education to change a girl – and the world. Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Selena Gomez and other esteemed actresses contribute voice performances to the film, which features original music from Academy Award winner Rachel Portman and Grammy Award winner Lorne Balfe. The film spotlights unforgettable girls like Sokha, an orphan who rises from the dumps of Cambodia to become a star student and an accomplished dancer; Suma, who composes music to help her endure forced servitude in Nepal and today crusades to free others; and Ruksana, an Indian "pavement-dweller" whose father sacrifices his own basic needs for his daughter's dreams. Each girl is paired with a renowned writer from her native country. Edwidge Danticat, Sooni Taraporevala Aminatta Forna and others tell the girls' stories, each in its own style, and all with profound resonance. These girls are each unique, but the obstacles they faced are ubiquitous. Like the 66 million girls around the world who dream of going to school, what Sokha, Suma, Ruksana and the rest want most is to be students: to learn. And now, by sharing their personal journeys, they have become teachers. Watch Girl Rising, and you will see: One girl with courage is a revolution.

- Average Rating: 7.0/10
Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: No one would confuse the movie with a short-story collection. But it's more ambitious and effective at blunting cynicism than most consciousness-raising efforts.
Fresh: Illuminating and ultimately hopeful, despite the horrible circumstances depicted, "Girl Rising" stands as a testament to the power of information.
Fresh: Director Richard Robbins delights in dotting his screen with bursts of color, from a shimmering orange dress to the deep purple of a pen cap, while the stories, shaped by anecdotal brevity, are often charmingly modest.
Customer Reviews
An excellent film about empowering girls
I've watched this with my two young daughters and we all found it alternately deeply disturbing and profoundly uplifting. The stories are very moving, and the message is powerful.

It's crunch time for the nuclear talks with Iran.
Tuesday is the deadline for a basic deal aimed at stopping Tehran from developing a nuclear bomb.
As the negotiations neared the endgame, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry shied away from predicting success.
Difficult issues remain on the table as the world's most powerful diplomats meet in Switzerland with Iranian nuclear negotiators, Kerry told CNN on Monday.
"We are working very hard to work those through. We are working late into the night and obviously into tomorrow. We are working with a view to get something done," he said. "There is a little more light there today, but there are still some tricky issues. Everyone knows the meaning of tomorrow."
If negotiators reach a basic deal Tuesday, a comprehensive deal, including technical additions, is supposed to be negotiated by the end of June.
World powers are seeking the outlines of an agreement they say would prevent Iran from getting a nuclear weapon for at least 15 years. In exchange, Iran would get out from punishing sanctions that have crippled its economy.
The crucial talks are taking place in Lausanne, Switzerland.
Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi sounded optimistic as he briefed reporters earlier Monday, saying that the diplomats were "narrowing down" their differences and working out ways to resolve sticking points.
"These marathon-like negotiations have reached the final stage," he said.
Three tense points
Things have been tense in Lausanne as the deadline for an agreement nears, with talks snagged on three important points:
• How quickly or slowly Iran will be allowed to advance its nuclear technology in the last five years of the 15-year agreement.
• How quickly crushing U.N. sanctions will go away.
• Whether sanctions will snap back into place if Iran violates the deal.
Iran wants them gone for good. But international negotiators want merely to suspend them, so they can reapply them as leverage if Iran does not keep the bargain.
Agreement on the points is crucial, a Western diplomat said.
"There cannot be an agreement if we do not have answers to these questions," the diplomat said.
Stockpile controversy
Confusion also flared over another important detail of the possible deal, with claims Iran was backpedaling.
On Sunday, an Iranian negotiator told journalists that Tehran would not send fissile material to Russia, which diplomats had earlier told journalists was part of the plan to put potential bomb-making materials out of reach.
"The export of stocks of enriched uranium is not in our program, and we do not intend to send them abroad. ... There is no question of sending the stocks abroad," Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said.
But on Monday, U.S. officials said the rumblings in the media about the stockpile issue were overblown.
Negotiators had not yet decided any specifics about the disposal of fissile material, and Iran has made the comments many times before, a senior State Department official said, citing a list of previous examples of such statements in press reports.
"This notion that in the last 24 hours that somehow there's been a shift in this issue, sort of a hardening of positions, just isn't true," State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf said at a news briefing.
"This is a remaining issue that we have to resolve but hasn't, quite honestly, been one of the toughest ones," Harf said.

Strange and Unusual
Strange and unusual
Yes, Im looking for ideas for my "Strange and Unusual" garden that I will be starting on my front patio. I want the very different looking plants. Have any Ideas??? Will be starting w/ a maypop (passion flower) Would like to stick w/ bright or dark colors no pastels.
I would like about 10 different plants for this little garden. Please send me ideas w/ pictures if possible.
Thanks all!!!
Here are some pix...
Black Mondo Grass
Green Rose...
Variegated pelargonium...
Unusual Head Planter with 'Medusa' Euphorbia...
Another head planter with variegated Corkscrew Rush
Just remember, blooms are NOT everything, only the icing on the cake.
Without a strong backbone of foliage and texture, a garden will become very boring when plants take a break from blooming.
Feel free to look through my photo albums in the link below...
Hope this helps...
Here is a link that might be useful: My Photobucket Photo Albums
Oh my goodness. I am weak. I am weak with sickness, and sick with weakness. Those are some of the most beautiful photos I have ever seen. . .I especially like the almost black waterlily, and the blue ish looking one with a tall stalk? Is that the moonbeam one? I saw moonbeam later on, but this particular photo wasn't id'd. Oh my. And the raccoon was too cute! And on the photos you posted here, I'm envious of the black and pink caladium! And that head planter with the euphorbia. . .that's just my style! (and what I look like in the morning. . .lol)
I honestly never realized that black mondo grass bloomed; the lilac color of the flowers is so striking in contrast! I must have some. Must. . . have. . . .more. . . . . . .
(infer breathless weakness here)
Amanda 'romando'
I like those heads! How about thunbergia? It is a vine which likes warm (not hot) weather but will not survive a freeze. It has striking yellow blooms with a perfect brown center. I have some growing among my purple butterfly bush and the yellow/brown thunbergia makes quite a contrast with the purple flowers.
Just let it grow among some other flowers, preferably something tall and straight, like maybe red sunflowers.
Thanks everyone!
Amanda, some of the water lilies I grow are not named, therefore I do not label them. I just grow them cuz I love all water lilies!
I have been on vacation in Newport, just got back last night.
Sorry it took so long to get back to you!

Washington Gas Tax Debate Breeds Partisan Mistrust In Legislature
Originally published on Mon March 3, 2014 3:35 pm
The debate over a gas tax hike has revved up again in the Washington legislature.
A key Senate Republican formally introduced legislation Monday to raise the gas tax by eleven-and-a-half cents to fund road projects.
The latest plan from Republican state Senator Curtis King still spends about $12 bill to maintain and preserve existing roads, build and complete new projects and pay for other transportation priorities. But it includes some concessions to Democrats, including more money for transit.
Still Senate Democrats don't like the details. They also question if King has enough Republican votes to pass a gas tax hike even with Democrats on board.
Senate Democratic Leader Sharon Nelson says minority Democrats don't want to take that vote alone.
"If the Democrats are going to take a heavy lift on gas tax we want to know that the majority is going to do that as well."
King responds that he can deliver 14 votes if Democrats will lend the rest.
Time is running out for lawmakers to bridge this partisan distrust, not to mention their policy differences. The Washington legislature is scheduled to adjourn in less than two weeks.

ProMash has a tool for this (inserted your #'s and pasted a screenshot below). I use a refractometer to get a good idea of the FG and also check when bottling with a hydrometer to get a better # (the differences have been +/-2 gravity points on average). I've also used the ProMash tool and it predicts the OG within a few points well but not as good as a true measurement.
I'd trust a calibrated refractometer (or temperature/calibration compenated hydrometer) for OG and a temperature/calibration compensated hydrometer reading for FG.

L'insonorisation de la chambre et le parking situé sous l'hôtel. - Christophe
Centré - Alain
Good location, as it is just located about 150 meter away from Ostbahnhof which is the end of U-6 subway line. Just go to the exit of Ostbahnhof with the sign of Hanauer Landstrasse, cross the road, walk a few steps, and you will be in front of hotel already.
The hotel is basically just a clean place to stay and it's budget type. Don't expect porter, room boys or room service as you got only 2 stays attending to you. No check outs required as you need to pay for the stay up front and no key pro - Anonymous
We liked the overall atmosphere of the hotel it was clean and comfortable, the staff were friendly and pleasant and the breakfast was good. We also happy that it was right beside the S-bahn and we were in the city in minutes. - Anonymous
Accueil parfait, propreté de la chambre, accès Internet gratuit et rapide, petit déjeûner copieux et varié - Jean

When Jeremy and I went to Asheville we decided to take a laid back approach to the trip and plan essentially nothing. We did get out in between naps!ĀThese are the things we discovered and found worthwhile and worth doing again in the future.
If I'm a hundred percent honest with you, I'd tell you I don't read much. Books were something I enjoyed in my youth until schooling and expectations turned books into these heavy things that carried your future. They were not fun and they were a means to an end, always. The joy of books seeped out of me slowly, all through high school and college and as I used them to only hone my skills in other fields after graduation.
But the truth is, books are pretty amazing. They can carry entire stories and place them in your soul like no television series, or movie, or even some life experiences can. And I was reminded when, on a whim, I decided to buy a copy of Tell the Wolves I'm Home. I even remember the moment. I was walking through Target. Unlike most stores, in Target I meander in the aisles for no reason at all. The style of the items they tend to sell just resonates with me. As I was walking around with pillows, throws, shower curtains, and decorative doo-dads swimming around in my eyes, I saw this book on a shelf.
I'm not sure what was so eye-catchingĀabout it, or why I had to buy a copy when I got home, but I did.
The general story is that June, a 14 year oldĀgirl, loves her uncle Finn, who soon passes from AIDS. She is then approached and befriended by a man her family hates for what he "did" to Finn, and their family. The story follows as everyone begins to face their own demons and become keenly aware of the demons living in the others. After I had read this book I felt like I had just finished opening a Pandora's box for emotion. It was all so sad but so deeply uplifting at the same time.
I really connected with June, the main character of the book.ĀThe way it was written, it was like Brunt reached out and pulled some of the words from my heart and pasted it on the pages.
Here are some of my favorite quotes, pulled from both my personal Kindle highlights and GoodReads by Carol Rifka BruntĀfromĀTell the Wolves I'm Home:
ŌĆ£You can build a whole world around the tiniest of touches.ŌĆØ
ŌĆ£I was in a place where nobody knew my heart even a little bit.ŌĆØ
ŌĆ£I felt like I had proof that not all days are the same length, not all time has the same weight. Proof that there are worlds and worlds and worlds on top of worlds, if you want them to be there.ŌĆØ
"I knew the way lost hopes could be dangerous, how they could turn a person into someone they never thought they'd be.ŌĆØ
ŌĆ£I thought how that was wrong and terrible and beautiful all at the same time.ŌĆØ
ŌĆ£I thought of trying to catch her eye, so she'd know I understood what she'd done, but I decided not to. Everyone needs to think they have secrets.ŌĆØ
ŌĆ£The kinds of things I want don't cost money.ŌĆØ
I highly recommend this book. I don't think I have felt this way about a novel since I read Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier.
When Jeremy and I went to Asheville we decided to take a laid back approach to the trip and plan essentially nothing. We did get out in between naps!ĀThese are the things we discovered and found worthwhile and worth doing again in the future.
I totally recommend picking something on airbnb while staying in Asheville. The town is eclectic and its residents a fun
reflection of where they live. We stayed in a fairly large home in Candler, NC. The host, Kathleen, was very accommodating and the room was comfortable.
One of the best things about Asheville is the really outdoorsy atmosphere. The locals are an active people and there are tons of beautiful places to go hiking. ĀI suggest you start with Craggy Gardens because it's not a very intense hike and only about a mile from the parking. You can complete the hike in about 2 hours or so, and the view is spectacular from the top.
If you want a peaceful walk and beautiful trails and gardening, check out the arboretum. ĀIt was raining the day we went and we still totally enjoyed it. It's got a ton of foliage you don't normally see in Georgia, and enough trail miles to keep you occupied for a couple of hours. It's definitely romantic.
Some old world charm lies in this bascilica! It's got a beautiful oval ceiling capping all the trappings of the catholic church. Stained glass everywhere and tons of religious items, gilded or otherwise. The organ was playing at the time we visited and there weren't many people. It's a great stop for an architectural photo op.
We had many breakfasts and lunches and dinners all over Asheville but two places really stood out enough for me to recommend. First is this nicely sized coffee shop with an excellent, unique menu. It has some standard favorites but some adventurous meals too. Try any of these with your morning coffee:
In the Garden Breakfast Panini
Roasted red peppers, baby spinach, tomatoes, goat cheese, andĀ pesto aioli, topped with an egg on pressed flatbread.
Lox and Bagel
Lemon dill cream cheese, smoked salmon, tomatoes, cucumbers, capers and onions on an everything bagel.
Apricot Banana Breakfast Panini
Cream cheese, sliced banana and apricot preserves, pressed in a croissant.
We tried to come here on Friday night but couldn't get in because there was a line out the door and down the street. I took that as nothing less than a challenge and the next day we arrived at a non standard hour so we can get in and get some of this in demand chocolate. The menu was extensive and although we each ordered one drink and one dessert each, it was all so rich that neither of us could finish anything. I recommend this place to anyone who loves chocolate! I recommend the following:
Chocolate Truffle Torte
65% cacao bittersweet chocolate, local free range eggs, and organic sweet cream butter. flourless. best served with whipped cream and a tart sauce of local berries.
A contemporary Mexican hot chocolate with house-ground chocolate, almonds, organic sugar, cinnamon & milk. this is what you\'d get in a chocolate shop on the streets of Oaxaca.
I was honestly disappointed when I stepped in here and discovered that it was not the type of arcade I was expecting. There were no games, coin dispensers or Mortal Kombat in sight. The grove arcade is an indoor mall! I got over myself and was soon going from store to store buying things for my house that I didn't need. Since there's a large artist community that resides in Asheville, the furniture and decor has an artsy, eclectic twist (that I love!). ĀDefinitely meander in here for a while and you're going to find something youĀ needĀ on your shelves at home. :)
If you've been to Ashville and have some must-do's let us know! :)
I love Popsicolor! It's the latest tool in my little iPhone artbox. I think it provides beautiful results given the right input file. It is a bit picky! I find thatĀ it's easier on the program, and lends you more control if you make the photo black and white and control the levels before you hand it over to Popsicolor.
I think these would make some fun prints!Ā Here are the Marriott Marquis and a rack of ties that have been run through the process.
It's been ages since I last wrote a review! Now that I have my camera with my 24/7 I have more of an opportunity to photograph my eats. ĀLast Sunday J & I found ourselves in historic Roswell meandering through antique shops and little restaurants. We stopped in at Zest, a trendy little sushi and tapas place in the middle of it all.
I ordered plum wine, a favorite of my mum's actually.
Wine in a glass is one of the most beautiful things to photograph, in my opinion. ĀI love how my fingerprint Āis super-obvious on the glass. ĀOops. It makes the picture more personal right? :]
The truth is this wine was pretty fantastic. ĀIt's very sweet and a pretty good addition to the tapas we ordered.
The first was a "Chinese Tootsie Roll" which was very think flaky shell around cream cheese and salmon, served with a sweet and spicy sauce. I couldn't help but focus on the sauce it was soo good.
The insides… delish! Soft, creamy and salmony. Smoked salmon is amazing pretty much always.
The other small plate we ordered was the pork dumplings in sauce. ĀIt was a strange fusion of Āan eastern dish with a very american sauce. Think steamed pork gyoza covered in a mushroom gravy. ĀI can honestly say I was a bit skeptical.
Except… it was delicious.
I am almost never disappointed with my meal at Zest and they certainly kept their standards up! I loved this dish too. The pork was soft and the pasta-y shell was easily eaten with just one fork.
So.. if you're ever in old Roswell, drop by Zest. The service is fast and the owner is in theĀrestaurantĀand will recommend some of the best dishes. ĀAnd if you're so kind, drop me a line and invite me to go along because I love it!
I bought some beautiful resin earrings the other day from this wonderful store.
This dreamy scriptacular amber pair will go with about half my work wardrobe. :)
IÆve always had a thing for peacock feather-themed stuff and this pair was just begging me to buy them.Ā Now, this isnÆt the first time IÆve bought something on etsy but itÆs the first time IÆve received what IÆve bought in really cute packaging! Both earrings came individually housed in their own totally awesome boxes!
I love it when a seller takes the time to make pretty packaging!
IsnÆt that just adorable? I loooooove the beads, the butterfly cutout and the wrapping of old dictionary pages. It really lends some class to the plastic cover in which they were delivered and made me doubly excited to open them. IÆll be honest, I kept the packaging and will probably use it for gifting something else. It was a wonderful surprise with my purchase. :]
I love the craftmanship that went into each handmade earring set too. TheyÆre lovely and the findings used were not cheap.Ā I will likely be a repeat client. :]
I have my eye on three more pieces, in fact. ĀI think they'd make a good gift for anyone who loves to wear something elegant andĀnoticeable. ĀMake sure you check out her store.

Selling your ANTI AGING KIT 'inferior' Garbage and using a well written stock
paragraph attacking Prevage to fool, those not in the know!
What resulted from collaboration between Elizabeth Arden, a high profile cosmetic giant and Allergan Inc., a renowned pharmaceutical company responsible for such medical dermatological products as Tazorac and Botox, is the skincare line Prevage. Released sometime in 2004, Prevage, an antioxidant cream, was set to provide enhancement to the skin's own restorative abilities. Offered as a medical-grade cosmeceutical through a physician or available commercially through Elizabeth Arden, Allergan's Prevage targets all skin types, including women of color, those with fairer complexions and men.
PrevageSkin.com, with its gray and orange color scheme successfully mixes the characteristics of a cosmetic and pharmaceutical website. Each keyword on the menu bar provides a drop down-list for easy navigation. The site also includes an interactive component providing videos, news alerts and additional information. While the website is exclusively devoted to Prevage's commercial products, a purchase requires redirection to Elizabeth Arden's website.
PrevageMD.com, with a similar color scheme, provides information regarding the medical-grade version of Elizabeth Arden's Prevage. It divides the site into information targeting doctors and details for the consumer. Available only through a physician, Prevage MD also boasts of improving the skin's youthfulness through an antioxidant cream. The difference between the two versions, though not specific, appears to be in the amount of a particular antioxidant Idebenone, which is listed as the bedrock of the effective formula. At one percent, the MD formula probably contains a higher Idebenone concentration that makes a doctor's supervision necessary.
In offering a treatment, an eye moisturizer and an night cream for anti-aging, Prevage focuses on reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, fading age spots and discoloration while evening tone and texture plus brightening and firming the skin. Prevage skincare products' exclusive formula relies on the antioxidant, Idebenone to correct and prevent cellular damage and degeneration due to environmental factors. The cream boasts of an Environmental Protection Factor of 95 out of 100 points. Ranging from $98 to $155, Prevage incorporates the medical benefits of a leading antioxidant developed by a Japanese pharmaceutical company and discovered by German scientists to prevent cell damage, skin aging and treats neurodegenerative diseases. Unfortunately, while rich in consumer and clinical trial information, the site doesn't provide a full ingredient list.
Aside from dermatological, media and consumer testimonials, third-party reviews were mixed. Many poor reviews for both the MD and commercial versions were due to severe allergic reactions that included swelling and rashes. Several positive reviewers experienced no reaction and were happy with the results.
Prevage, a brand with high profile support from a renowned pharmaceutical company and long-standing cosmetic giant, uniquely represents a product of true cosmeceutical caliber. Whether the commercial grade is purchased from Elizabeth Arden or the medical-grade from a physician, Prevage, sets its own path with the use of Idebenone, a potent lesser-known antioxidant responsible for a near perfect Environmental Protection Factor. The reputation of strong allergic reactions and the mystery behind Idebenone's biological origins impact the impressive backing and testimonials causing a failure to gain full support from consumers.
**This is a subjective assessment based on the strength of the available information and our estimation of efficacy.

The Wausau Area News & Entertainment Weekly
Welcome gnome
to Wausau
"Garden gnomes would be the ideal finishing touch," says one Wausau City Council member who privately supports completing the medians on the Hwy. 52 Parkway, west of the State Hwy. 29/51 overpass.
The city of Wausau has about $110,000 allocated—but unused—to complete phase two of the median landscaping. The project stopped dead in its tracks in 2014 after an outcry over the metal bird art installed in phase one, on the east side of the overpass, in front of the commercial development that includes County Market.
A number of constituents complained that the series of rusty metal sculptures are "ugly" or "ridiculous" or "a waste of money." The herons were meant to reflect Wausau's natural wildlife—there's a large rookery on Lake Wausau—and it's a nod to the internationally acclaimed Birds in Art exhibit at the Woodson Art Museum.
"That obviously was not the right approach," says Susan Pedestrianson, a Wausau resident who's leading a contingent of constituents demanding a say in the final landscaping phase of the road. "I understand the need for some kind of art on this city entrance. But why pay a local artist thousands of dollars to create something no one's ever seen before? For that money, we can get a lot of pretty things that are mass produced in China."
Pedestrianson is leading a quietly created new citizen's advisory committee charged with recommending how the city of Wausau should complete the road median beautification.
The group is calling itself the Gnome Art Consideration Committee, or GAC, because large-scale garden gnomes from the start have been the unanimously agreed on objective.
Before making its final recommendation to the city on Wednesday, April 1, the GAC group this weekend set up some test gnomes on the strip of Hwy. 52 to see how they might complement the landscape and blend in with the installed bird statues just down the road.
Pedestrianson says the gnome possibilities are endless. "We can put Santa and Mrs. Claus gnomes out around Christmas and even repaint some gnomes in traditional Hmong dress to celebrate the Hmong New Year, whenever that is," she says.
She says GAC will recommend against installing those widely available, unfriendly garden gnomes that hold "Go Away" signs, are flipping a pudgy middle finger or bending over to expose portions of their buttocks.
"This will all be in good taste, and I think people of Wausau and visitors will be absolutely delighted," Pedestrianson says.
To show their enthusiasm, GAC has raised about $1,900 so far toward purchasing and installing 10 to 15 large-scale garden gnomes on the quarter-mile stretch of road. City staff has not yet compiled costs, but estimate that gnomes over 30 inches high are selling for around $79.99, and as much as $219.99 for the big fancy ones.
The Wausau City Council will vote on the final GAC recommendations after it receives the report on April Fools' Day.

Easy, Cheap and Elegant Valentine's Day Decorating

Valentine's Day Gifts for Less
So you just got all the holiday decorations put away (or maybe you didn't!) and here comes another holiday, namely Valentine's Day! Never fear, I have some great budget-friendly ideas for quick and easy decorations you can use to dress up any room of your home and show all your loved ones how much you care.
Dress up your everyday dining area with heart shaped placemats. Pick up some large red or pink craft foam sheets from your craft store and trace and cut a large heart shape from each one with a pair of sharp scissors. Use a gold paint pen and write a one word romantic sentiment in the center of each one, just like the "message heart" candies of our youth. Edge the hearts with squiggles and swirls, or perhaps personalize each placemat with a name of a family member. These will wipe clean with a damp cloth, and add loving style to each meal!
Pick up four or six silk flowers and a small roll of wire edged ribbon (white, red, or pink) from your discount store and tie one flower each to the back of each of your dining chairs. Make the bow larger than you normally would for drama. The wire edge will allow you to shape the bow into a full, romantic style. Use leftover ribbon to add some romance to your front door wreath, your mailbox, or the headboard of your bed!
Buy an inexpensive floral bouquet from the supermarket and spilt it into two or three smaller bunches. Add some evergreen cuttings from the yard, and display it in pretty creamers, teacups, and bud vases. Flowers speak of love and family, but it doesn't need to be a $50 bouquet of roses to add romance to the room.
Take some time to set a romantic table for that special Valentine's Day dinner, not only for that special someone, but for all the loved ones in your life. You can do this with things you already own. Layer the table coverings with quilts, tablecloths and placemats. Layer your dishware as well with a large plate, saucer and bowl, and tuck napkins into your drinking glasses. Don't be afraid to mix and match your dinnerware. It adds style. Pick up a pack of paper doilies from the dollar shop and scatter them across the table. Get the kids in on the day by giving them some red or pink gift wrap, tissue paper, or construction paper and a couple of paper punches, and allow them to make confetti to sprinkle over the table.
Lastly, don't forget to add candles to your Valentine's home. They are inexpensive at any discount store or dollar shop and can be displayed in groups on old picture frames as trays or in front of mirrors to double your romantic style. Drop tealights into teacups or mason jars, and tie a ribbon around the outside.
Remember that romance is good for the soul, and it's easy to bring a little of it into our homes to show our love for those around us!
