Daisy - Any chance you could email me the whole recipe for that pie to my profile addy? It sounds amazing and I *love* cherries.
It's odd but I only dislike Valentine's Day when I'm "with" someone. When I'm totally single, however, I'm a Valentine's Day loving freak. (It's okay if that doesn't make any sense since I don't understand it either.)
vw, take it easy if you can. And sj, I hope you start feeling better soon, too. It doesn't look like you'll be painting the town red tonight so just concentrate on getting well. You and Dave can decide that Saturday is Valentine's Day and celebrate then. Seriously.
I stopped being a fan of Valentine's Day after a conversation with college roommate and a mutual friend. Mutual friend mentioned that he was going on a date for Valentine's Day. Roommate grumbled very loudly because his fiancee was 1000 miles away. My completely unattached state -- well, I kept my mouth shut about that.
wrod. Second that emotion.
Because sometimes the greatest love of all...is really nsm.

I can. I'll have to do it tomorrow since I don't have it on me. Coworkers were disappointed when they found out it wasn't for them.
Thank you, Daisy Jane!
Just spoke with the guy that's going to be installing my new dryer (my 3rd brand new dryer in less than a month- for those keeping track at home) and he thinks he'll be able to get me hooked up today. Woo hoo!
I'm so excited that I might cancel plans tonight in order to do a bunch of laundry.
OK, well, in lieu of Valentine's Day, happy Iranian National Day! Although I think it was the 13th.
I so don't fit in here, I don't even know. Women's curling was on TV in the lunchroom, and DH and I are all "W00t!" Everyone else who came in either had no clue what it was or dissed it "Oh, what's next, Olympic shuffleboard?!"
I did note that the two guys who knew the rules and didn't dismiss it out of hand were the two smart guys, who also happen to be the ones in good shape. The others, well, I think they were just upset realizing that a 30ish Canadian woman could beat them like a rented mule.
Rented mules do Curling? I didn't know they could sweep. Always a rink, never a skip.
My money is on alien baby in GI tract. Only *one* doctor out of the 4 that saw him today thought that was funny.
Cincinnati needs funnier doctors.
I get the pure, non-sugar variety of cranberry juice from the healthfood store and slug at least a cup at a time. It is not for the faint of heart, but it is powerfully helpful in making the u-tract inhospitable to the little infecto-bastards.
Mom swears by the capsuels. And I think Dr. Weil says blueberry juice is just as good. Neither of these is making me curl my toes and squish up my face and squeal so they have
that
advantage.
From the Unfortunate Valentines link:
We would make a happy mutant freak with a repulsive, oversized fruit for a head that enjoys sailor suits and pie.
My celebration of V-Day will be going to karaoke and singing "Chain Of Fools". Possibly also "Welcome To The Jungle" - we shall see how the voice holds.
I'm so excited that I might cancel plans tonight in order to do a bunch of laundry.
Is it wrong that I totally understand the impulse behind this?
Happy Valentine's Day to all. May there be chocolates for all, and pie, cards with laughable pear-headed mutant freaks, tasty dinners, lots of liquor and luscious loved ones who will make us feel good. Plus, a pony.
Because Cashmere posted just a few ago:
I should like to nibble
Upon the toes
Of Buffista Baby
Olivia Rose.
Because it just looked better with proper formatting.
