A chickychickychick-ENN!! Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 As it's time to celebrate the death of a mishmash of martyrs whose names begin with 'Valen' and end in 'Tine' and pretend they're all actually a tiny fat winged baby with loveheart shaped arrows, I thought I'd wish you all much love. Whether you're single, someone with a crush, someone who is the focus of someone else's crush, in love, seeing someone, coupled up or married, there's a lot of love out there if we look for it. Anyone want to share anything LOVE-ly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 Well its not lovely just silly - bought a Valentines Cracker for OH yesterday and wondered why I got a funny look from cashier - when I got home it said "to her on Valentines Day" . I will wear my glasses next time I shop. OH thought it was hilarious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Palmer Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 I spent the best part of 5 hours today helping my son who's nearly 16, make a heart shaped white chocolate gateau for his girlfriend and I made a valentine card for him to give to her too. I have to own up and say I haven't made OH a card yet though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 I am glad romance isnt dead in teenagers. I said to ES 14 - "are you sending any Valentines?" I might as well as said " would you like to dress as a girl today" as the scorn on his face was a picture. Nice to know the younger generation are still romantic. What a lovely lad. send him round Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dancing cloud Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 Well tomorrow's my birthday and I've got lots of cards - I can always pretend they're valentine's cards. No chocolates or flowers though ( I could always buy my own!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daphne Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 My OH is coming back tonight after being away. I was so excited after the rugby I went out to buy him some chox (normally this may not have happened.....) I have the perfect card and I can't wait to see him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redhotchick Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 My OH declared during the week that we would be celebrating St Valentine's Day on Saturday in this house. "OK" said I, somewhat taken aback by this. My surprise is that he has purchased and prepared for my delight a takeaway meal for two from our favourite Deli. I am very happy with that! Tomorrow is one of my niece's birthdays so we are going to my sister's. Lots of love to you all x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeckyBoo Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 My middle daughter is closeted away upstairs and I'm banned from entering, although she did venture down to ask if I could help her make an envelope (and it's for me!) She's a sweetie. Small boy tells me every day that he loves me, eight thousand million weeks he said today (probably to counteract the other day when I asked him to pull my curtains shut as I was getting changed and didn't think the whole world would want to see my bottom, and he said, "no Mum, because it is very big") He's still alive, just!! Lots of love to everyone Beckyboo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daphne Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 AAHHHH! I leave this computer and go upstairs to get ready for OH's return and I sniff a stink. One of the cats has done several poos in the bath. And now its asleep on the bed. And its not meant to be upstairs at all. All the soft, loving vibe has deserted this house, I suddenly have a pressing date with lavender scented cleaning products! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helly Welly Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 We're all having pancakes for breakfast as we'll forget on Tuesday, then it's off to the cinema to see Percy Jackson and the Lightning thief and then we'll be having a homemade chinese meal followed by a New York cheesecake with summer fruits compote and fortune cookies. We always have a chinese meal for chinese new year so the nice food is more for that than for Valentines. We'll exchange cards but that's it.

henriette Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 We don't do Valentine's Day, but no reflection on our love for each other We are going out for dinner tonight though to some english friends who have a holiday home nearby. I've made a red and white gingham cushion with a white fleecy dove and red heart to take as a little gift...(perhaps a bit yucky, but it seemed a good idea when I started it ) Happy Birthday Dancing Cloud Love to you all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 We celebrated early as The Boy is away this weekend. He's staying with me at the moment (helping out with kitchen refurb) and i came home for lunch in Friday to find an enormous bunch of red tulips and roses, and the M&S valentines meal deal cooked for me - much to the amusement of the builders We tend not to go out for meals on valentine's day, but have an evening in instead.

Old Speckled Hen Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 My DH presented me with a beautiful little Cranberry Glass in the shape of a heart AFTER we'd promised not to do Valentine's It's gorgeous but I could kill him!!! I haven't got him anything I'm making his fav pork pie today so I'll put a couple of hearts on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
