Valentine's Day 2007

With 12 inches of snow in the 'Paign, this is what you can do to celebrate the loviest day of the year:

1. Sleep in until 10:30.
2. Read the Dark Tower series (The Wastelands if you're me) for an hour (cause nothing says Valentime's like Stephen King); then snooze for another 30 minutes.
3. Take a leisurely shower, towel off while watching Paula Deen, and appreciatively adore your husband while he shovels for over an hour.
4. Skip off to Chili's for a romantic, fun lunch and have a Puddy look-alike, who keeps calling you "my friends," wait on you. Because he was so friendly, and you are now friends (he said so remember?), tip him an extra 50 cents. (It's the friendly thing to do.)
5. Run to the best store they don't have in D.C., Meijer, and get some provisions to make super rich and romantic brownies (seriously, click on the link and try the recipe--it's EASY!). This step is especially important if you have a super nice honey, like me, who spent another hour shoveling our back deck.
   
6. After making the brownies and a pot of RayRay broccoli soup, have a sit down for an episode of David Tennant Dr. Who (not to be confused with Christopher Eccleston Dr. Who).
7. Finally, snuggle in for a new episode of LOST to be followed by a Season 2 episode of Smallville.

Remember to keep your favorite loved one with you the whole time, and your Valentine's Day, while seemingly ordinary, will be extrememly out of the ordinary and wonderful! :)
