I am the cheese
I am usually not into things that are very cheesy. I don't scrapbook (well, I'm still working on a baby book, but that doesn't count), my little girl has never worn ruffles or bows, I don't decorate my home with dried flowers or cutesy sayings, etc. I don't like cheese unless it's the kind you eat.
But, I love Valentine's Day. I really do. I know it's one of the cheesiest holidays ever, and I know that it's popular to be bitter and hate it, but I can't avoid liking it. I love how everything is red and pink and has little hearts on it. I like the rose petal shaped bath salts I saw in the bookstore the other day, and that adorable baby outfit that Target is selling that features tiny pants covered in hearts. Besides, this is the holiday that you can celebrate with mass amounts of candy and you don't even have to humiliate yourself by putting on a costume to get it. Not to mention the fact that you can write love notes for your friends and family, make pink sugar cookies, and have a good excuse to buy fresh flowers in the middle of winter. And so, I confess, that I am looking forward to next week's cheese fest. I wonder if I can find some heart shaped cheese somewhere...

Or you could get a brick of cheese and a metal cookie cutter and go at it.
Valentine's is one of my favorite days, despite the fact that I've never been dating anyone on Valentine's. It's like there's a whole holiday just for me. And people celebrate it by making fudge-filled hearts and fudge-filled bears. How much better could it get?
