This Valentine’s Day… Why express yourself with a folded piece of cardstock, or candies that don’t form sentences?
Food artist, Marie Saba, knows how to get the point across, with a series of love notes formed with cookies and various foodstuffs.
Featured over at Instagram, #FoodValentines is a fun exercise in food-styling and wordplay. Try a few of your own, and save yourself a walk down the card aisle. See more below.

A Slice of Life is an animated short, brought to us by Terry Border of Bent Objects. It follows the touching story of a lonely and well peanut-buttered slice of bread, in search of its better half. Warning, that there is some rather racy bread-on-bread love. Enjoy.
A Love Story… In Milk follows the touching story of a few anthropomorphic and inseparable gallons of milk. And not unlike most love stories, it was never meant to be, and the boy winds up dumped and covered in garbage juice. We’ve all been there.
Valentine’s Day draws nigh. And, if you’re the type of person who has a hard time expressing yourself the other 364 days of the year, then February 14 provides the perfect opportunity to at least do it half-assedly.
One thing that cannot be denied, is that there’s no better way to appease your partner with minimal effort, than with a folded piece of card stock containing a message written by a stranger.
However, this year doesn’t have to involve an ordinary card or generic message. With help from Foodiggity and a few crafty Etsy users, make up for a year’s worth of emotional vacancy, and show your partner that you appreciate them in the greatest way possible — by comparing them to bacon. You’re welcome.
This card by Etsy user cottonflowerpress gets right to the point. Tell your lover that they’re greater than the almighty meat candy — unless they view this as an emoticon, in which case they’ll just be confused.
Bacon love runs deep, and this card by bjoytomac establishes that the love for your human partner is even more so. Who’s the big winner this Valentine’s Day? Anyone who can present this card with a straight face.
The good old ‘we go together like…’ approach — it never fails. This card, by dancingant, plays matchmaker with the greatest of dynamic duos. Although, as we all know, bacon goes with everything. So you might have to try a bit harder.
The suspense is killing me… What will the answer be? Well if you actually present this card by PaperPlatesPress, then the real answer is probably either ‘beer,’ or ‘more bacon.’ But because it’s Valentine’s Day, you get a free pass to lie.
Happy Valentine’s Day, everybody.

There is an old adage that the secret ingredient in any good cooking is love. This is especially true when Italian grandmothers and Sunday afternoons are involved. So for this episode of Power to the People, foodiggity rolled out of bed on Sunday, put on the gold chains, and got the sauce on.
But this is far from your average Sunday sauce. Inspired by one of the greatest things ever—a Cuban dish called Ropa Vieja—we proudly present to you… Foodiggity’s Sunday Love Ragu.
The Beatles ‘Love’ is on loop in the foodiggity test kitchen… Let’s do this thing.
