You are welcome to our Valentine Blog Bash.

Just make yourself comfortable.

Refreshments are nicely arranged down the page. Drinks, Chocolates, Cakes, Donuts and so much more. 🙂

This video had me cracking.

You can crack your Poetic Prowess by taking part in continuing this tag along poem below. The full poem will be published on my Tuesday’s Trivia with every part attributed to the contributor. So here goes…

Her eyes shone with tears

That clung to her lashes

She glanced at the ring

It’s twinkles brought back flashes

Okay, so here are the rules of partying and mingling.

  1. You must mix and mingle with others. Don’t be a wall flower. Go say hello to someone and you can participate in the Tag a poem up above.
  2.  Please leave your blog link or post link in the comment box below along with an introductions.
  3. It’s one link per comment, but come back as often as you’d like, that way it’s easier to focus on a link at a time for others.
  4. Please reblog, spread the word of the party like butter, or like, share on Twitter, Pinterest, Google+, Facebook, etc. Tell your family, friends,  bloggingneighbours, even your blogging pets.
  5. Have fun, it’s a great way to find bloggers and have them find you.
  6. Please show some love. Reblog this post. It helps all of us! The more people that see and participate in it, the more potential new follows! So, share and share voraciously!

There we have it. Since all the rules have been clearly explained, have fun and make the most of it 🙂

Thank you for coming to my party and supporting my blog. You rock.

‘In my place, when you call for a party, you don’t skimp. Our hospitality is legendary. We even have jollof rice and gifts. Just help yourself to a fluffy teddy, a bouquet of flowers and a gift pack.’ You are welcome 🙂

  1. Hi everyone, thanks for coming… Yes, thank you very much. This way, please. Salmon is over, but if you still want some please come to me. I have a secret stash.
    Please leave your shoes here. That would be a refundable deposit of 100 dollars, please.
    *takes the shoes and hides them*

      3. Ok, ok…here goes amateur hour:

        There once was a Valentine’s blog party
        Where everyone wished to attend.
        The stole my shoes
        Then gave me some booze
        And it all worked out well in the end

        😉

  8. I just realized that I posted my little poetry contribution when I commented before… but I never really introduced myself. Which I suppose is due to my’wallflower’ instinct at parties. 😀

    So… I am Sandra (obviously, and yes, that is my real name) and I started out posting original fiction and what I think about all sorts of things in life (because everyone needs to know what *I* think). And then I started writing poetry for the first time in my life and I’ve enjoyed that so much that I keep posting more and more.

    And at times, my content gets, racy, shall we say (the poetry and the fiction… and sometimes, the reality).

    Here’s a small racy bit… since it’s Valentine’s Day and all…

    Happy ♥ Day!

      1. Sorry about that, Jacqueline. I’m a bit out of practice with parties, so I seem to have had a bit too much to drink and dozed off on the couch. I have a feeling everybody else may have had a great time and then gone home, but just on the off-chance anybody is still about, my blog is at http://www.bunkaryudo.com.

    1. The hostess is walking around in a daze. She keeps mumbling, “Someone stole my shoes.” I have no idea what she is talking about. I have a feeling she is stoned.
      Bun is wishing the wall a ‘Happy Valentine’s Day’
      Sandra keeps looking under the food table, saying I brought fudge. Where the f*** did it go?
      That girl is too liberal with her swear words I tell you.
      Gradmama is singing Jack and Jill and keeps telling anyone who will listen that she wrote the poem.
      Nedoux and Niyati are counting notes to buy another salmon Sandwich. Don’t know why they keep checking their feet to see if they are still wearing shoes.
      Lisa is making her fourth born drink apple juice. Only fourth born knows better and tells her it’s champagne.
      And Paula.. (how many of them are here, anyway….) I don’t know which one… She keeps saying You guys so so need to go running tomorrow.
      Me.. who are asking who am I? Sure, I’ll let you know once I get to know.

    1. Who are you talking to? Everyone is passed out on top of each other. Hostess…. you want to meet the hostess. I think she has gone hiding somewhere, since the food is over.
      Oh you are hungry? sure, let me help you… Do you have fifty dollars on you? Yeah, I shall take it. Here take a bite.
      Oyeeeee, just a bite… two bites are 80 dollars. Shell it out, quick… yeah,… nice! Good gir!

    the Rules are –
    – No entry without a ticket.That’ll be 750 dollars per head. Arms and Legs additional.
    – E ntry allowed…. Enjoy! Oh, there’s no food left. You need to come back to me for food. 40 dollars a bite for Salmon. 600 for a portion. 1500 for an entire sandwich! oh you want juice and desserts too. 2000 dollars, please. Nice. Here’s your food coupon.

  29. Hope you’ve had a wonderful weekend Jacquie – and fellow party-peeps too of course! Thank you for making it so much fun! I missed most of today for sleeping it away, but made up for it ahead of time by blog-partying all day and night yesterday(!) Now about to enjoy the last two hours of Valentines Sunday finishing a couple of posts I left lingering and then I’ll back to catch up with any lingering party guests I missed so far. Maybe we should have a fourteen days and/OR fourteen ways to ‘share the love’ some more – starting tomorrow, ending with a Leap from 29th to…? I reckon it’ll take at least fourteen days to really explore all the amazing blogs linked up during this but wonderful to meet so many of the people who have created those blogs. Thanks again for the fun, chat, food, gifts, warm welcomes etc 😀 see you soon, Colette 🙂

  38. I just arrived, late, while going through blog posts to get to here and now. I’m glad there’s both spirit and relaxation. My shoes are off. In fact, I’m sitting cross-legged. I don’t know if I’m in time for food and drink. The rice dish looks wonderful, as do the layered drinks. I’ve been reading the earlier posts leading up to the event. I got going through an invitation from mandibelle16 (https://mandibelle16.wordpress.com/). She’s been so generous in sharing the word.

    Thanks for the brainstorm and for hosting hosting this gathering. Happy Valentine’s Day and days to come. Pax.
