Valentine's Day is for Dim-wits*

So this weekend is Valentine's Day. Wade and I have a tradition of picking a new restaurant that we've never been to before and eating there for the occasion. Other than that we don't really do anything. Back in the day when he was trying to "woo" me he would buy me flowers or chocolates and one time he even cooked me Cornish hens and garlic mashed potatoes, but those days are long over. I really like our new tradition though of not over-hyping this whole "romanticized" holiday. Why have a day in which to show the person you love that you adore them? Shouldn't you be showing them that everyday?

So this year we are trying Manhattan’s. It’s in downtown Minneapolis and we plan on going downtown prior to our 7:45 reservations and hitting the bar scene. This ensures I will be fairly lit by the time we hit Manhattan’s and the food will for sure be astounding. After all, everything is better when you are drunk (see my previous post if you question that logic). So needless to say I am very much looking forward to spending some quality time w/ my man and having an enjoyable evening out just the 2 of us; drinking, talking, laughing and enjoying the night. And when we get home: dessert!

So what do all of you wonderful internet friends have planned for Valentine’s Day? Any romantic, smushy, lovey-dovey crap going on? If by romantic crap I mean body chocolates, lingerie and massaging gel then count me in. (Haha, j/k Mom and Dad!) :)

We are sooo romantic!

Happy Valentine’s Day my friends!
