Valentine's Day

Instead of my usual flowers, my husband sent me a pajamagram. The pajamas were packaged in a cute mesh hat box and the pajamas were adorable. Much better than the flowers! He ordered them from PajamaGram.com. These are EXCELLENT gifts for anyone that loves pajamas!

My son, on the other hand, sent his girlfriend a Cupid Bear from Vermontteddybear.com. She thought the bear was cute, but it arrived damaged. The company agreed to ship another one to her immediately. She seemed satisfied, but it seems kind of bad to have to wait for your perfect Valentine!

My daughter and my son's girlfriend got together and decided to send big chocolate chip cookies to their boyfriends. There is a local shop here that does wonderful work. They make cookie lollipops, gift bags, etc. In fact, they do just about anything that you can imagine you could do with a cookie. Check out Lou Anne Takach at cookiesbydesign.com. You won't be disappointed!

What did I get my husband? Well, I picked out this mushy card which he loved because it had a nostalgia look that reminded him of the town where he grew up. Then I picked out a bagfull of goodies that I know he likes--turtles, peanut butter cups, and special cookies. It being food, he was pleased. Next time, though, I think I'll let cookiesbydesign handle it for me!

I hope that everyone had a wonderful Valentine's Day!
