Veto Valentine's Day!

I'm not the horrible, cold hearted cynic you think I am.  I like flowers as much as the next girl, BUT, you pay a premium on those flowers on the 14th.  Please celebrate with your Valentine, but avoid the boxed chocolates, stuffed things, and all those plastic, white tents you see in the grocery store parking lots. 

Celebrate instead with a nice meal (I did see ribeyes on sale...) at YOUR house and gasp...maybe some candles!  A pink teddy bear that says "I love you" means nothing to me.  My husband washing dishes and putting the kid to bed - now that's what lights my fire.  

Just remember, that little heart shaped box of chocolates that you buy on the 14th for $15 will likely be $7.50 on the 15th.  That, my friends, is a loss any way you look at it.
