Valentines Day

Today is Valentines Day. Quite a big deal here in the US of A.
A huge deal in fact.... the New Year and other "holiday" decorations were only partly down when the red decorations started going up. I note some people changed their white Christmas garden lights to red ones too..... I said to Jamie that I thought we should not go too overboard and buy presents etc for each other like the shops seem to imply that everyone does, that we should maybe just go out for dinner or something.
So as of today, we are liking our first Valentines Day in each other's company (last year we had to make do with web-cam!). Our house is filled with flowers as I had bought some blue irises for Jamie on Friday (his favourite), and he had bought me a dozen red roses and a dozen pink roses and then Craig and Cheryl who came for dinner last night brought us some lovely yellow and red tulips. We are feeling like we are at the Four Seasons again! Tonight we are going for dinner at Morels restaurant. It serves "Michigan Food" so that should be rather nice..... There is a menu on their web-site but it looks like it is an old one, although I doubt that Michigan food changes hugely over time!
