Today is Valentines Day. Some people out there are rushing around and making plans with/for their sweeties spending gobs of money on flowers, presents, dinners, wine, etc. I hate this day. I was NEVER a big Valentines Day person. Every boyfriend I've ever had never believed me until the 14th of February rolled around and I didn't do anything or ask for anything.
I personally think it's silly to have a commercialized day to tell someone that you love them. Silly I say! Matthew was about the only guy that liked Valentines Day and it upset me sometimes that I didn't get into as much as he did. One Valentines Day he came home with a card that said "You deserve the best" or something along those lines and told me I had to leave right away because he booked me a Valentines Day massage at Spa Utopia. I was so thrilled!!! I did nothing for him. A year later Cari came over and as she and I sat and sipped delicious cocktails Matthew made for us, he made a four course meal. Not only that but he gave us each a card stacked with scratch and wins (our favorite). Matthew was definitely more the "romantic" in our relationship.
One thing I will give Valentines Day is an excuse to eat a delicious meal. So tonight I'm having a date with Rob. I'm making him his favorite dinner. He's not allowed to come over until 7pm. I'm pretty excited. I like an excuse to cook something elaborate so Valentines Day, I thank you!!!
