Happy Uncommercialized Valentine's Day


I love celebrating life. Holidays are maid to break everyday monotony, and make something special of fleeting minutes, hours, day of our lives.
So why so many of us are standing in lines and traffic to get to the chocolate store, to buy suddely expensive flowers, to get something red, pink and tacky? 
Celebration turns into one of many mandaine tasks, a chore, an additional line in your to-do list.
Spend a morning in bed (I leave it to your imagination). Or take a long bath. Brew yourself a cup of tea. Take as much time as you want reading a book. 
Make a card with your child. Bake a batch of cookies. Play in snow or BBQ outside (depends on your local weather conditions).

For guys and gals who are prone to more adventurous Valentine Day, check out this book:
SEX: How To Do Everything . Great illustrations, interesting discriptions, detailed information on everyhthing, from arousal techniques to toys and sexual health.

For a fun craft project with your kids, go to Kristina Verner Design Blog, and make a Button Heart Valentine Card.

And check out this delicious Sugar Cookie recipe!

Happy Valentine's Day!
