Happy Anti-Valentine's Day!

Image


We don't "DO" Valentine's Day. It's just a fake, commercial holiday, perpetuated by the flower, candy, greeting card, etc. industries and the price markups are shameless. If you love someone, you don't need a specific day to show it. In fact, EVERY day could be Valentine's Day. :-) ♥♥

Here's someone with the right idea.  Meg Pickard has her own line of anti-Valentine's Day cards.  

"What's better - a partner who is a thoughtless pig all year-round but manages to sort out hearts and flowers on the 14th of February every year because the media tells them," said Pickard. "Or someone who does nothing spectacular and flashy in the middle of February but sends flowers on a random Wednesday morning and uses their own words, which may not rhyme, but mean more than any stuffed bear could ever manage? Every day is a good day to tell someone you love them, no?"

YES!!
