Our Love/Hate Relationship With Valentine’s Day

I love Valentine’s Day because for us it means supper from the fish and chip van that frequents the neighbouring village (yes, all very sweet and small town). I also love the idea of Saint Valentine himself… Patron saint of lovers, epileptics, and beekeepers, yes beekeepers. Perhaps I shouldn’t say hate, but the part I don’t like so much is the tat that comes with it.

But, I’m also no V-Day Grinch and will more than likely give my boyfriend as well as my 2 year old a card, simply because we should be telling the ones we love how much we do so, every day, including Feb 14th.

Here’s a few (far from tatty!) treats to go alongside said card…
