Our Funny Valentines
Jon and I both think Valentine’s Day is just a tad contrived and silly. I mean, it is a made up holiday. You’re supposed to love your sweetheart year-round, right? (Well, most days of the year anyway.) So here’s what he got me:
Two boxes of See’s chocolates (I have a sweet tooth from HELL.), and some Peach Cran-Tango black tea and Copper Knot Hongcha black tea from Teavana – 2 of my favorites! Okay, so his gifts are pretty traditional, but here’s what I got him (and Lucy, the ever-curious cat):
A cast iron tea pot (sort of for me, too), HP sauce (from England – it’s somewhere between ketchup and A-1, and I had heard Jon mention it before), and a six-pack of different kinds of beer from World Market! I couldn’t think of anything to get him, and what guy doesn’t want beer? I think he was happy.
So after our little gift exchange, it was time for me to go to yoga. Here’s my festive attire:
I thought it was funny.

No posts since VD? And two days off??? Quois?
We’re not fans of made up holidays, either. We made each other handmade Valumtimes and gave each other untraditional gifts (he got each other car-related items). It amuses me whenever we hear about other couples who think Vday is silly, too.
