Sweets Day
Valentine’s Day has never really been my thing, which is weird because I LOVE pink, chocolate, going on dates, my husband, pink, and chocolate. It’s the forced part of V-day that really gets me – the girls demanding flowers, gifts, elaborate dates, etc. Anyway, a few years ago my husband reminded me that Valentine’s Day is just another excuse to do something fun together…not that we need an excuse, but I’ll take it 
So far today has been a pretty ideal Valentine’s Day for me. We started the morning with coffee and cinnamon scones (from Immaculate Baking Co. – I love their products). Then we headed to mass at the church where we got married 2 years ago. After service got out at noon, we went to Omaha’s Old Market area and walked around in the snow before lunch/all-day happy hour at one of our favorite sushi restaurants. Two martinis each and four rolls later and we headed home where I crashed on the couch in my sweats to watch Sex and the City Movie. I love the characters and the ultimate story in this movie, but gosh, it’s sad! If I let myself, I could cry about five different times.
I think I could get used to this Valentine’s Day thing…
