Valentine's Day: Celebrating the Holiday of Love

Valentine's Day is all about flowers and heart shaped chocolate box. Approximately 110 million roses, the majority red, will be sold and delivered within a three-day time period.

Even if you don't have a Valentine, you can still celebrate life, either alone or with friends, with these Valentine's Day ideas. On February 14th , what will you celebrate?


Valentine's Day
- It's a tradition. Since the Middle Ages, people have honored St. Valentine, the patron saint of romantic causes.

- Love inspires creativity. Even if words aren't your thing, a love letter, poem or handmade card is the perfect way to express how you feel about someone.

- It's an excuse to indulge in some fancy cooking for two. Start with fresh oysters and end with strawberries in balsamic vinegar jelly.

- Adventure. What is the one thing your partner has always wanted to do? Now is the day to make that wish come true.

- Pamper yourselves. Stay in the honeymoon suite at a five star hotel, visit a day spa together, shower each other with gifts, get dressed up for dinner, and order two rounds of dessert.

- Stay in. Order takeaway, buy a tub of your favorite ice cream, hire romantic movies and chill out on the sofa.

- Party. When was the last time you hit the town together? Head to a bar, buy tickets to a gig, finally go to the newest nightclub in town.

- Spread the love. Remind your friends and family how much you love them by sending Valentine's Day e-cards to everyone you care about.
