Things to LOVE

  • February 17, 2010 at 1:41 pm

We are always reminded most of the things we love in February. Whatever the form, it could be a person, a place, or just things. Our existence in the world would be quite dreary without this reminder. It would do us all good to stop and take a look at all the things that deserve our love.

Forgive my indulgences, you\’ll have to remember that I live in a college town and am married to a college student. The first item I love, then, is pizza, naturally. But, you have to understand that this is no ordinary pizza that I love.

No, it\’s Craigo\’s five dollar pizza with buffalo wing sauce. The sauce makes all the difference. After trying their buffalo wing sauce instead of the tedious marinara, I will never eat a regular pizza again.

Being a typical mom, wife and clean freak, I love cleaning supplies designed with the sole purpose of making my life easier, cleaner, and faster. Recently I\’ve made the discovery of Electrolsol dishwasher cleaning tablets. In addition to the sparkling shine you will find on your dishes, you will be swept away in the aroma of sanitized sweetness that radiates from the dishwasher throughout your entire kitchen.

I love that February is during the cold weather months, because I have an endless love for boots. The genius minds of fashion have made a boot to survive any circumstance. For the snow I have my furry, waterproof Staheekum boots, or dress-up with brown leather knee-high boots, and indoor cable knit Gap slippers to keep my feet and legs cozy. Snow or ice, who cares, I\’ll look fabulous in it.

BBC revives our deepest romance with their latest adaptation of Jane Austen\’s Emma. BBC won my heart long ago, but this witty, sensuous, and fun love story completes February lovin\’ for me. It aires on Masterpiece Theater, of better yet just buy the DVD online and watch it anytime.

Sitting on your couch, also gives you access to the wonderful world of online shopping. Finding your love\’s favorite gift doesn\’t require mall hopping anymore. Your fingertips can browse through all the stores in the world while you stay at home. You could buy a sewing needle, wool socks, a rosebush or even a beautiful acre of land.

We\’ll have to go to the bedroom for my dearest love — flannel sheets. I\’ve tried silk, satin and even Egyptian cotton, but this is the way the sandman intended for us to sleep. There are deep places in your most beautiful sleep, that can only be dreamed of while wrapped in flannel.

I share these treats to you in hopes to share the love. While I find satisfaction in hoping that you will also love these things, greater satisfaction would be that you find all that you love for yourself this February. To be loved and in turn find love in anyway we can, I\’m sure would make St. Valentine happy.
