My Funny Valentine

| 13 February 2009 | 26 Comments

I’m glad I’m not out today cos my weather station shows -4.5°C, too cold that could turn my cheek as rosy as a medium steaked veal.  The fact that it’s Friday the 13th makes me more grateful to just be staying inside to avoid the abracadabra, which according to many, the day brings.  Thanks to my soon-to-end winter break.

Is it Valentine yet?  I didn’t realize that Valentine’s Day falls on a weekend.  Hubby and I would normally go out for a dinner on Valentine’s Day.  Restaurants and other dining places usually are fully-booked on this day but much more on a weekend when everybody wants to be somewhere after a week’s job.  So we can’t just barge in and say, “we need a table for two, please”.  We had actually done this many times until we got declined due to full reservations.  That was two years ago and I remember we walked our way into the cold to find any restaurant nearby.  And the prize of it was the Resto Inferno.  I couldn’t imagine anyone using the word inferno in whatever purpose but this resto got the hell in it’s name but nevertheless with a  heavenly ambience.  I would love to dine there again but absolutely not on a weekend.  We’re planning for a cosy home dinner instead, don’t know how and what yet.  Any suggestions?

Spreading Love All Over The World
Before I go plan for a Valentine dinner I’d like to spread the love first through this tag I got from Joy of Words of Love. Thanks a lot dearie for sprinkling me love with this tag. There’s no rule but to post this Bible verse and see what Valentine reminds you about.

‘For God so loVed the world,
That He gAve
His onLy
BegottEn
SoN
That whosoever
Believeth In Him
Should Not perish,
But have Everlasting life.’John 3:16
