Warm wishes for a Happy Valentine's Day. Will it be a night at home with your significant other, or will you venture out to the recently opened restaurants for a socially distanced night of romance? Or ... will one of you inevitably fall asleep before the "celebration"? Valentine's Day is obviously what you make of it, some would say that it's just a day for commercial exploitation, others truly feel the love flowing along with their credit card. I have mixed feelings about it... however I am not opposed to receiving a beautiful bouquet of Farmgirl Flowers... maybe resolve to buy from a local business in support instead of a larger corporation? Whatever you may plan, let's be thankful that we can be with the people we love and appreciate no matter what the cost. Read on for everything you should do this month and discover lifestyle tips curated just for you. |
