Happy Valentine's Day - he he he
A few years ago we started a new Valentine's tradition and we have so much fun with it. Do you ever walk through the store and see all the Valentine's crap that is out there? You look at it and wonder who the heck buys this stuff? Well, we do now! The tradition now is to buy each other the tackiest thing we can find. Every year it seems I find something and I walk through the store giggling thinking of the reaction I will get when I give it to him. We then give each other our "gifts" and we laugh and laugh and decide who got the tackiest gift. Ok, call us crazy but it is fun. We stopped going out to dinner several years ago because it seems the whole world is out to dinner on Valentines Day. We'd rather go when it's not so busy and rushed. We don't want/need chocolates or sweets so that's out. So our new tradition is fun and we know what we're looking for when buying each other a Valentine gift!!

Oh, man - I saw the most perfect gift for this kind of thing! It was two toy frogs on a motorcycle (red, of course) and it played "Kokomo" - tackiest thing ever!! And what it had to do with Valentine's Day, I have no idea but it was covered with hearts.
That's the greatest! Butch got me a bag of pistachios, and Alexander thought it was silly, but I love them, and that's what counts!
You could always take it to the next level, and insist on getting it half off the day after!
