Valentine’s Day
As many of you know Valentine's Day is going to be celebrated on February 14th and it has become quite popular as an expression of the love that we have for each other.
As a child I was always very curious as to the celebration of this day and of course I remember those little hard heart-shaped candies that had little sayings on them like “Be my Valentine”. I remember the goofy part of my youth when I wanted to give one of these candies to a girl I was sweet on!
When you think about the origin of this celebration was in the Middle Ages, part fertility festival and part Christian, now romanticized, linking love and courtship. And to look at what it has evolved to day with red hearts, Hallmark cards, and special dinners for two!
