... for those who celebrate it! We don't usually make a big deal out of it here, I think it's too much of a commercialized 'holiday' and I'd rather not be spending our money on expensive presents or anything. I designed a little something this morning for the hubby (poster/collage of photos and quotes) but that's it. Though I did get completely surprised with a vase of flowers (including one of my favorites, stargazer lily) about 30 minutes ago, totally wasn't expecting that at all!

Happy Valentine's Day!!
Bought the wife a dozen roses yesterday, and glad I did it then. We have a Safeway right next to our store and it was mobbed with fellas trying to get flowers last minute. I also noticed that at any other time of the year, a dozen roses there are $9.99, but since it's Valentine's Day, they've been marked up to $19.99, go figure. But, she loved them and it was dead yesterday at 9:00 am, so still consider it a win.

Was she expecting the roses?! Or did you surprise her?

Surprised her. We had said nothing for Valentine's, but I had to get her something, just didn't feel right. She doesn't like candy and not a big balloon person, so flowers it was. She liked them.
