Love on the Rocks?

Some people deride Valentine's Day as crass commercialism (they are not wrong). Others feel a heightened sense of lonliness or disappointment. I've come to believe it's a matter of perspective.  As below:

LOVE ON THE ROCKS?

OUR LOVE IS SOLID AS A ROCK?

OR THE MAKINGS OF A HOT STONE MASSAGE?

I like to let commercial holidays remind me to SLOW DOWN and APPRECIATE what I have ourway, not to dictate what I should do, spend, or expect..

Here is a glimpse of Valentine's Day OurWay.

My gift to Alfie

A quilt block coaster to replace the old utility bill or whateverisathand in the music/computer room. It was a first effort at quilting and after two false starts did not turn out too badly. (The cute little heart/flower card is from Pink Paper Peppermints http://www.kindawonderful.typepad.com/.)

Why would this be appropriate?

My Gift?

In addition to breakfast in bed and the dinner Alfie is cooking now...Oh, and BTW, the many acts of kindness and tolerance of me, my hobbies, and eccentricities not prompted by a commercial holiday.

My perspective on the opening rocks?

Our love is solid AND they are the makings of a hot stone massage.

Make it a Happy Valentine's Day... Your Way.
