How do you say "I love you" without using those 3 words?


Hiya Reader,

๐Ÿ’–I adore you.

It's "Palentine's" Week. It's all about LOVE. There are so many expressions and layers to love.

For the last 2 years I've been switching it to ADORE. I love the Christmas song, "Come Let Us Adore Him." I think that was when I started playing with this word. It has a different essence don't you think?

My friend Erin posted this pic and I loved reading what people do. Some cook for another (this is me), some compliment, hug, kisses, listen...another one "I hate you!" ๐Ÿคฃ I think they meant to be funny. I would love to know what you do.

๐Ÿ’–I would also love to know your LOVE LANGUAGE! Mine is Acts of Service. Knowing this changed my life.

๐Ÿค—I want to take an intentional pause and tell you I ADORE YOU. I APPRECIATE YOU.

๐ŸŒนYou may know I love ROSES, so I'm sending you a boutique of roses energetically. What's your favorite?

Also sending you some SWEETS, recipes good for your HEART & HEALTH from my Gut Reset Coach Tess

๐ŸŒŸ Sugar-Free Valentine's Treats from Tess Masters ~ theBlenderGirl.comโ€‹

Typically, Valentine's Day is a chocoholic's paradise. So, if you love chocolate, you're going to love these recipes.

๐Ÿ’–Chocolate Espresso Truffles - If you want to give a homemade edible gift, or take a hostess gift, or just celebrate with yourself in front of a romantic movie. these truffles will hit the spot! They are so easy, and you can roll them in whatever you like. I use the Lindt 70% Dark Chocolate to make these, and they keep in the fridge for weeks. But, they never last that long. You could also use Lakanto in this recipe, too! (Or, some other sugar-free sweetener.)

๐Ÿ’–Chocolate Orange Cake - This is still one of the most popular recipes from The Blender Girl cookbook. This cake takes about 20 minutes to make, and is as easy as blend, freeze, and devour. You can slice and leave pieces in the freezer for future chocolate fixes! Again, you could also make this recipe sugar-free using Lakanto or some other sugar-free sweetener.

๐Ÿ’–Chocolate Cinnamon Pudding - If you don't want to spend more than 10 minutes preparing your chocolate fix, this quick easy blender pudding is the ticket to serious chocoholic pleasure. I have a really busy week, so I admit, this is the option I am going with this year. And, guess what, every time I serve it, people go crazy. So, it's not how much time you put in. Serve topped with cashew cream and fresh berries for a truly decadent dessert.

๐Ÿ’–Damp Lemon Almond Cake - Not feeling the chocolate love? If you haven't made this cake yet, just do it and thank me later. Seriously. Valentine's Day or no Valentine's Day, this cake needs to be in your life. Why? Well, the flavor and texture will make you weak in the knees, but also because it may be the easiest cake I've ever send. Blend, pour, and bake. That's it. Those of you who have been in the community for a while know that I really hate to bake. I don't have the patience. I like quick easy treats! To make this sugar-free and diabetic-friendly, substitute the maple sugar with 1 cup Lakanto (monk fruit and erythritol) in this recipe.

๐ŸชฉIโ€™d love to hear your thoughts, how you say I love you, and what you are doing for self love. Hit reply and let me knowโ€”Iโ€™d love to learn from you. Share this with your tribe.

๐Ÿ’–Sending you soooooo much love,

Thuy "twee"

๐Ÿ’ What Makes You Feel Seen? It's Soulful Shifting Sunday Reader, This week at my Polka Dots meeting โ€” an organization I'm part of for networking, sisterhood, and so much more โ€” our director Julie asked us a beautiful question: "What makes you feel seen โ€” and who makes you feel seen?" It stopped me in my tracks. ๐Ÿ”ฎ I See You โ€” Literally My honest answer? I'm better at seeing others than being seen myself. As a Chinese face reader, I see people's patterns, strengths, superpowers, and challenges...

๐ŸŒจ๏ธ The Storm That Became the Message Maycember is REAL, Readerโ€” yesterday a surprise winter storm proved it. School was canceled, Bella was home and in full "I need your attention" mode, and my neatly planned workday? Gone. Add news of a friend losing her dog and another friend facing a cancer diagnosis โ€” I made a quick decision: Put down the to-do list. Show up for what actually needs my presence. And you know what? It became one of the best days. Presence is the greatest power and gift you...

โš”๏ธ May the 4th Be With You โ€” Always & It's musing Monday Reader, If you're a Star Wars fan, you already know โ€” today is our day. ๐ŸŽ‰ And even if you're not? Let today be an invitation to celebrate with lightsabers, lattes, and a tiny bit of chaos. Because honestly, that sounds like a perfect Monday. ๐Ÿ’ซ The Wisdom of Yoda "Do. Or do not. There is no try." โ€” Yoda Every time I sit with this quote, it hits differently. It's the ultimate permission slip to ditch perfection and just do the dang thing....
