Valentine’s Day has become synonymous with flowers, or red roses more than anything.
In the lead up to that special day, ten days previous, the shops were full of flower displays. All shades of red and pink were bursting out of plastic buckets, begging to be bought!
Now I do love a good flower, a beautiful bouquet, as much as the rest, But I feel sad that exorbitant mounts of money are exchanged for these blooms that don’t last very long, or get chewed by Sonu Singh!
This year I said to Hubby Dearest that a card would suffice. We don’t need the wishy-washy extras! He didn’t listen… but I got a different bloom…
A Chocolate Rose! Perfect! It wouldn’t last any longer than a real flower… I could scoff it in one sitting, but hey, flowers and chocolates combined into one, a great idea!
Remember, feel free to take part in #Loveuary! Just ping back to the daily post, as in this one for today! And if you are at a loss for a prompt, then visit my rules post here for a list of prompt suggestions!

My sister was here over Valentines day so we waited until she left to do all the fun mushy stuff…LOL we went to Sedona for Valentines day, however we had a big breakfast and was never hungry for lunch or dinner and the closer to home we got the choice of restaurants went down the road behind us…LOL so we are doing our Valentines day dinner today….nothing like stretching it out over a couple weeks….LOL
