Let me know of some cleaver romantic things that you have done for Valentines Day besides sending a Hallmark card. Do you do things for anyone besides a boyfriend, girlfriend or spouse? Like for kids, neighbors, etc. I send Valentines to my co-workers and valentine suckers.
I just had an idea> nothing i have done before though. You could surprise whoever you are in love with, with having red satin sheets, red candles burning, red petals and pink petals lightly thrown on the bed, red and pinkish glow in the room, and romantic music. For dinner you could have red icing covering an awesome chocolate heart shaped cake with red and pink hearts sprinkles on top, a red wine, red covering for the table, red candles, if your guy or girl likes a certain kind of meat then fix them for a sweetheart tasting dinner you can fix it or have it from there favorite restraunt> it is more romantic to stay at home with beautiful music in the background. Have the room with a low glow romantic feel to it, it won't be strong with bright light>GOOD LUCK Kim (=D)
i used to make my own cards and give them to my parents...then it just became my dad cuz giving my mom a card felt weird...but i don't do that for them anymore cuz it all feels weird..lol...and i give my sister candy and a card...
when i was in high school i had a whole bunch of heart stickers and heart candies....i would give them out to everyone, even people i didn't even know........cuz i was insane like that...oh..and i had brought a whole bunch of white chocolate heart-shaped lollipops and gave those out to all my closest friends...lately i haven't been doing little things like that...hmmm...i guess i need to be more in the valentines spirit...
mmm..chocolate heart shaped cake...ooooo and with sprinkles...lol...
Fine vapors escape whatever is doing the living.
The night is cold and delicate and full of angels
Pounding down on the living. The factories are all lit up,
The chime goes unheard.
We are together at last, though far apart.

Warrior it is good to acknowledge yourself. It hsa been said that until you learn to love yourself, you can't really love anyone else.
Supriya-why dont you still give a Valentine to your mom? Why does it feel weird. Flames has the smooth operator thing going on!!!
Every year my daughters receive something special before they go to school. Something visable (usually cuddly) that they carry with them all day long. If their boyfriends forget, no one is the wiser. If they don't have a boyfriend, they just say it's from a secret admirer. I do admire them and for a day it's a secret. ;) It can be a stressful day at school where many are left out and others receive way too much. My girls try to do as Anita has done. Carry extra valentines and treats to share.
This was a nice post to start Kimberly. I look forward to getting some other ideas. ;)
This year I plan to buy pencils with hearts on them and little heart-shaped erasers and give them out to my friends or just to people I get along well with at school. It should be fun :D Oh and I'm also gonna be handing out little cinnamon hearts.
