Do you get/give flowers for VD?

I have never had a venereal disease and wouldn't think it would warrant flowers.

I do like WILD flowers though.

Hubby knows that I hate red roses for V-day because they are so cliché. In general, I don't like cut flowers because it depresses me that they die so quickly. I'll take an orchid because they last a while, but I only like white ones.

I used to expect jewelry for Valentine's Day, but I'm over that.

Actually for Valentine's Day, I'd much prefer a card with a handwritten note and an easy dinner at home (beef tenderloin, baked potato, and salad).

I'm with ya. Restaurants are so flippin' crowded! I do appreciate some gorgeous white roses, but I understand what you're saying. It's sad when they are gone.
Jewelry...wouldn't know about that. Mr. DD hasn't set foot in a jewelry store since he bought my ring. Sad, but true. :lol:

Yeah Kurt, I checked Emily Post I can't find the chapter on the proper etiquette for sending and/or recieving flowers for veneral diseases. The guidelines were very clear, under no circumstances should the aforementioned floral offerings be delivered in person. Peonys are always a nice choice. Not that you need any suggestions.

Oh, Valentine's Day.

Valentines Day and vd-it's possible

Valentines Day and vd-it's possible

vd for VD?
pasadena.:lol:

"VD.....spread the love." What a great ad spot!

We've let each other off the hook for V-day. It's such a waste. I know he loves me. I'd prefer a plant to flowers any day. :wave:

Darling DD... in your darkest hour did you think we could so quickly & effectively decimate the flowery, sweet-heartsy aspects of Valentine's Day?

I mean, come on...
Sheila recommends 'ponies' as a nice choice for Kurt to gift Teresa??? :floor:
Teresa, if it were me, I'd have to say "neigh" to 'ponies'.

you're a NUT duneahhhhh:wave:


some people know my favorite flowers around here!

but, I really prefer .... never mind........ :lol::leaving:

flowers are nice.😀 and a hand made card with a love note. and a nice dinner.

My wife thinks flowers are such a waste so I am off the hook. I always get her a card though. February is a tough month because I have my oldest son's birthday on the 7th, youngest son on the 14th my father on the 20th and wife on the 28th so I go broke on birthday gifts so I don't have to but Valentines gifts.

Flowers are always nice to get IMO - especially if the ones selected show that some actual thought/knowledge of the person's likes and dislikes/personality was involved.

well, if that's what you wanna call it!!!😀 I like any and all flowers.

:idontno::idontno:

I usually get flowers because I love all kinds. Ones from the yard, garden, grocery store, or florist!!! I always tell my family to give me flowers when I am alive so I can enjoy them. My only complaint about about getting them on V-Day is the price is increased because of the holiday.

I think that "ponies" means "peonies," as in our daughter's favorite flower which was everywhere at her wedding last June.😀

Yes, my bad. It should have been ies not ys. Do I have to write it on the chalk board 1000 times or can I just stay after class instead?
