Happy Year of the Tiger

[1]HERE’S OUR WINNER!!!!

Why It’s Great to Be Single on Valentines Day [2] from Migtwig (who also shot this gorgeous photo):

It’s great to be single on Valentines Day because I can define the day however way I want to. And as it falls on a Sunday this year:

– In the morning, I can either sleep in or get up and call friends or family to catch up or read the paper or have brunch with friends.
– In the afternoon, I could go on a hike (the green lushness and the waterfalls this time of year in the Bay Area are amazing and inspiring) or I could take a nap or go see a matinee. And no, it doesn’t have to be a romantic comedy.
– In the evening, I could either have dinner with a friend or go on a date or stay home and get take out or work on an art project.
– I suppose I could also spend the day feeling completely sorry for myself, but the truth is, I’ve done that enough and it really does get old.
And as chocolates and flowers go, I live across the street from an amazing pastry shop and since I’m a floral designer, there are always flowers in my apartment.

Happy Valentines Day everyone!
