Tulips and Frozen Quiche

Happy Valentine's Day.  At our house we exchanged cards and gifts (bar of dark chocolate, pot of tulips) at breakfast.  Tonight we're eating a romantic dinner of Costco frozen quiche. 

When I was a kid, like everyone else I gave every kid in my class a cheap packaged valentine card by dropping them in decorated brown bags taped to desks or pinned to bulletin boards.  Doilies were big in the way of bag decorations.  Everyone followed this protocol. No favorites.

When I first met Jerry, he had no concept of Valentine's Day. It was a holiday that passed him by.  Now he's onboard, even enjoys it.  He's already hidden the chocolate bar.
