She met my father shortly after that. She was amazed when I told her that St. Valentine's tomb was in there.

My Valentine's Day was all about the chocolate. I ate it, I gave it away and ate some of theirs, I ate some more and stashed some away for a rainy day. Especially love giving it to the grandkids, since I get to leave them with their parents to battle the sugar rush :) Belated hug right back at you! My Valentine’s Day was all about the chocolate.

Then I guess if you're in love it's probably worth celebrating. Just another day to me I'm afraid and of course the beginning of the Chinese New Year. I knew it had become a “Hallmark” day.

Grannymar,

When my husband retired from work, I was still working myself and when I would come home after a hard day I would find that he had cooked us a nice meal, which is something he had never done before.

On the first Valentines Day after he retired , when we opened our gifts to each other, we suddenly realized how much we had reversed roles.

He gave me a briefcase and I gave him a blender….
