Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day to everyone, whether you have a significant other or not, enjoy some chocolate and celebrate that all the good chocolate will be 50% off tomorrow! I have conflicted feelings about this holiday (most of the time, it isn't even on my radar, except seeing all the candy), on one hand, it is nice and romantic with all the pretty flowers and hearts and chocolate, but I don't think you should have to wait for a holiday for romance or to be romantic. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy flowers and chocolate (chocolate happens to be one of my favorite food groups!), but ordering flowers or buying a box of chocolate is relatively easy, I feel real romance is a bit more complicated. My husband has gotten me flowers before and I love them, they let me know that he is thinking about me, but the gestures that I really love are the things that he does that I know he doesn't like, but still does them anyway for me. One great example is while on a trip to NYC, he went on the Sex and the City tour with me....  really, he went on it and sat through all 3 hours of it as part of my birthday present (I love SATC!). It was fantastic and he was such a good sport about it! So our fabulous plans for tonight consist of ordering take-out, maybe Chinese or Italian or Greek, and hanging out at home with our son. Exciting... maybe not....but it works for us!
