Rick Rack, Will You Be Mine?

Fine, I’ll admit it: I kind of like Valentine’s Day. I’ve heard the drill that it’s a fabricated holiday that too often involves drugstore chocolates and last minute roses picked up at the gas station, but as far as excuses for self-indulgence go, Valentine’s Day ranks pretty high. One can happily buy herself some fancy chocolates, a dozen hot pink roses, and raise her glass to the best reading material there is, the book of love!

Romance is just thoughtfulness directed at someone you smooch. How about sending sweet nothings this year to the loves you don’t lock lips with? They’re your friends, and they gracefully put up with a lot. They help you pick the paint color for your bathroom, indulge your grandiose theories of what makes good art, and mail you perfect gold shoes just because. Have you told them lately that you love them? If you can’t fete them in person with Rod Stewart and a sidecar, perhaps you should send them one of these rick rack valentines sealed with a kiss.
