CELEBRATE ST. VALENTINE'S DAY

The history of St. Valentine's Day goes back before the days of Chaucer in which age it was meant for lovers. Sso how is it that mother's, children, friends and lots of non-lovers expect cards? Until relatively recently the Catholic Church recognized 11 martyred St. Valentines. Everyone wants to get into the act!

Cards get pretty ridiculous, like: If I was a bat, I'd hang around with you if you would be my Valentine. Or, Like the paper clip said to the magnet, "I find you attractive". Regardless of the trivia, flowers, lace, roses, candy, and all the stuff that has become a part of the Holiday, the best you get from me today is:
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY

Having spent the week working at one of the top 100 FTD florists, Valentines Day sentiments can be very nasty if one is last minute and finds that delivery of a product is not going to occur when said product is sold out and there is not time to grow more! mmmmmm hostile lovers....
Here is hoping you had a nice Valentines Day free of commercial excess.
