Super Nibs
Yum!! I love this cherry flavored licorice. Nibs is one of those snacks that are great for long road trips. I am not sure why, they are just so tasty, AND you can tie them in knots. Ohh even better is shoestring licorice. I love to tie it in knots and eat it. YUM!!
♥ Happy Valentine’s Day ♥
February 14, 2010
Saint Valentine’s Day (commonly shortened to Valentine’s Day) is an annual holiday held on February 14 celebrating love and affection between intimate companions. The holiday is named after one or more early Christian martyrs named Valentine and was established by Pope Gelasius I in AD 496. It is traditionally a day on which lovers express their love for each other by presenting flowers, offering confectionery, and sending greeting cards (known as “valentines“). The holiday first became associated with romantic love in the circle of Geoffery Chaucer in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished.
Modern Valentine’s Day symbols include the heart-shaped outline, doves, and the figure of the winged Cupid. Since the 19th century, handwritten valentines have largely given way to mass-produced greeting cards.*
