V-Day

... was a huge success! In spite of my anti-Valentine's Day feelings, I was pleasantly surprised, and I surprised someone pleasantly as well. ;)

I went shopping with my mom on Sunday and boughtthis outfit from Lane Bryant, as well as something similar to this (in V-Day red, with ribbons).

Last year's V-Day felt forced, since DH and I were having some problems, but this year, although we were both kind of broke, we ended up having a marvelous time. DH gave me a lovey-dovey card, which was really sweet, plus candy (Reese's Peanut Butter Cups miniatures in a heart-shaped box), and a heart-shaped trinket box with a bear couple on the lid.

DH also fixed a delicious V-Day dinner: steak, scalloped potatoes, green beans, honey muffins, and apple crisp for dessert.

I'm so spoiled! :)
