valentines

well. i usually do not suggest drinking the koolaid, but maybe there are a few instances when it is understandable. my dear sweet husband's opinion about valentine's day is about the same as mine- it is a commercialized day designed to sucker men into buying flowers, candy, and jewelry to show their "sweetheart" that they care about them at least one day a year as if they are unable every other day of the year. that being said- he thinks its important for me to have a special day even if the hype is a bunch of hooey. he got me a rose and some yummy vegan cookies!

these are called speculoos and are a favorite in europe where they are referred to as biscuits. this company even makes a spread that is comparable to nutella without the milk. these are my new favorite treat and my sweet husband went out to find some for me! :)

we also went to j alexanders for lunch and then went to see "taken." our not yet created children will never be allowed to leave the country without taking one of us. hell, neither of us is leaving the country without the other. crazy crazy things go on with underground trafficking.

he also got me this really cool shirt that says vegetable mafia! that's right.

all that to say- i had a very special day and i appreciate the effort and special attention given to me :)
