Valentine's Day 2011

Did you buy a valentine's gift to that someone special? Was it flowers, a box of chocolates, a box of candy, or jewelry? Are you planning to have a romantic dinner or just a stroll in the park with a picnic basket? Or is it that special home cooked meal with a bottle of wine?

There are so many ways to show your love for that special someone! It does not have to be extravagant that it will cost you an arm and a leg! It can be a trip to the movies or better yet, how about just watching a nice movie at the comfort of your home? That is sooo cheap! Well, with today's economy...what do you expect? Besides, Valentine's Day is overrated and it has become so commercialized like the other holidays that it has lost the real meaning! Nobody really need an expensive jewelry or an expensive box of chocolates to tell someone that you love her or him!

How about flowers? Flowers are good. How about roses? Did you know what the colors of roses mean? Red means love, beauty and courage. This is the most popular color for Valentine's Day! How about white? It means purity. Pink roses signify appreciation, grace and happiness! Yellow roses mean joy, gladness and jealousy while peach denotes sincerity and gratitude! Too many colors to choose from! Why not just give one red long stemmed rose? I am sure that whoever receives this will really be happy! There is no need to buy more than one...just use the money for a good carry out and a good movie!

What ever you plan to do...enjoy the day and each other! After all, Valentine's Day comes only once a year....make the most of it!

Happy Valentine's Day to all!
