so this is the fifth day…and oh how i am enjoying it! it feels good. so many of you have emailed or commented on the blog saying how this experience is adding so much sweetness to your life…mission accomplished…well, kind of. so much more in store. the pictures are rolling in; so many beautiful expressions of love already submitted. i can’t wait to collate and publish the exhibition just for you! i am so tempted to cheat and share, but i wont! if you haven’t yet submitted your photo for the exhibition remember to email them to love@pussbackfoot.com, or if you are just joining us you can find out more here: 28 days of love and launch of photo exhibition.

so i know that as the weekend approaches some of us are starting to think about what we will do to celebrate those we love on Valentine’s Day. i usually outdo myself on such occasions, but this past christmas…not so much, so i really have to make it up to him! whenever i am planning an event, i think about the mood i want to create and the venue heavily dictates the ambience. here are some of my favourite sweet spots for love… and if you can guess (just comment on the blog) the fifth spot, my favourite spot, you can win a bottle of one of pussbackfoot’s favourite wines and a special pussbackfoot “28 days of love” music cd!

1. lover’s leap
as the story goes, two slave lover’s leaped from a cliff in st. elizabeth, jamaica to escape their master so that they wouldn’t have to be apart. so… i am glad that times are different and most of us don’t have to jump off of a cliff to be together, but you cannot find a more sincere sentiment than that. i think its the perfect backdrop, with an amazingly beautiful ocean view to boot, to make some promises to each other, and maybe even seal the deal…with a ring!

2. the cliff at frenchman’s cove
some of us know the beauty of frenchman’s cove beach in portland, jamaica. imagine then what the panoramic view from a secluded spot on an overlooking cliff is like…amazing! a group of us discovered this spot last year on a venue scouting trip, and i have been back only once to just take it in briefly. but i dream about the day that i lay a blanket under the shade of the tree and enjoy the gentle winds, the view (i can only imagine at sunset)…and the company.

3. crystal edge
crystal edge is a little jamaican restaurant located in a prime spot right beside cafe blue in irish town. the food is yummy, but what really has me is the very charming dining room beside the main restaurant. its small, cozy and you are constantly cooled by the passing breeze… doesn’t help that i am a sucker for an occassion to get wrapped up in a pashmina! and to make it sweeter, crystal’s and cafe blue live in harmony so you can enjoy the fare from either menu at either of the spots.

4. hope gardens
as one of my dear friends said the other day, a part of the reason she loves hope gardens so much is because of the word “hope”. ditto. it is lush and beautifully manicured, with so many of the most beautiful story book trees. its the perfect place for families to relax and enjoy each other’s company. we don’t have much of a back yard, so from time to time we carry our girls up there, throw down a blanket and let them run free!

5. my favourite sweet spot
these are pics from my favourite sweet spot….can you guess where? remember the first person to guess (just comment on the blog) wins a bottle of one of pussbackfoot’s favourite wines and a special pussbackfoot “28 days of love” music cd.

more love,
