I consider that VERY romantic since he hates to go shopping. He cooked me breakfast and dinner (simple stuff), I made him dessert. No pressures at all for either of us. We plan on doing that "no presents, just each others company" thing ever Valentines Day now. My husband went shopping with me on Valentines Day.

He's been totally accepting of this and never fails to bring me a pot or bouquet of spring bulbs(tulips, daffodils, etc) which I very much prefer over roses. This year I saw an ad for a barbershop quartet. Growing up, Dave's mom played for a quartet and I know he genuinely LOVES this type of music. Last Wednesday, I surprised him at school with the quartet. He and his class very much loved it! Then I heard through the grapevine, because we teach at the same school, that he was worried about how high I'd set the bar this year. All I could do was laugh, this one year was make up for the last twelve.....and he was worried? I assured him that tulips was all I was expecting and wanting....He delivered!!

Used to listen to her all the time. Sounds like a wonderful family time...that's what V-day should be, I think. This dinner reminds me of a birthday party I had in 4th grade. I wanted to have a party like Laura Ingalls had in one of her books...a dinner party! All my friends dressed up and we had all my favorite foods (which would be DRASTICALLY different now!) of chicken rollups, creamed corn, broccoli casserole, rice, and MORE crescent rolls! When everyone arrived, my dad, dressed in his tuxedo, greeted them at the door and introduced them as "Miss ___" then we all had sparkling white grape juice in crystal glasses.
