Love: For Richer or Poorer

It appears that people aren't thinking about Valentine's Day this year due to the economy and uncertainty of our nation's future. It really is just a commercial holiday, but I can't help wanting to get lost in the day of love. I'm sure there are others out there that feel the same way.

Valentine's Day falls on a Saturday this year, and that means my fiance's work/sleep schedule is the opposite of mine. This year we are going to settle on a simple celebration, which can be just as magical (if not moreso) than going out to an expensive restaurant. I'm not sure what we are planning on doing, and I still need conspire what to get/do for him. We do need to save our money.

I think in a future blog post I'll talk about some ways that you can spend the day or evening with your significant other without spending a lot of money. If you have any tips or anything you would want to include please feel free to comment this blog with your suggestion.

And back into the spirit of this Day of Love, I designed this beautiful Red Rose Cameo Necklace.

It features a lovely resin cameo that resides in an antiqued silver setting attached to an 18.5 inch gun metal curb chain.

You can find this Romantic Flair necklace for sale at my Etsy Shop:

beautiful necklace. I am thinking for valentines day we will go to the zoo or spend it walking around downtown at the market and waterfront.. then come home and have a special home cooked meal and a nice movie in front of the fire all snuggled up and maybe a new bottle of massage oil :)
