The Internet allows us to find people we would never otherwise would have met. After I blogged about the heart potato lady (Mary Apple) from Letterman, her daughter, Claire emailed me to share her love of hearts with me. I found someone whose love of hearts may trump mine.

Claire is an army wife with three little boys. She needed to impart some femininity to her y-dominated house. Her “patient, understanding and good humored” husband agreed to a PINK kitchen and bathroom laden with hearts.

(Of course she also works at Victoria’s Secret – where she’s surrounded with pink heart boxes daily.)

Here are some snapshots of her heart … and LOVE-filled home:
