CFAM [Heart]s You!

I remember the times as a kid when I'd to give out Valentine's Day cards to my friends at school.  Those early years were fun.  It was the only time of the year where you were "authorized" to pass notes in class.  And not only could you pass notes without being disciplined for it, you were also encouraged to include sweets.  Oh man, what fun that tradition was.

But then, as the years passed, they became awkward as kids formed crushes for each other (or lack thereof) and annoying.  As a boy in my early teens, I only wished they weren't reading into my message too much.  Be Mine?  Really?!

Ahh, the joy of growing up.  But, as I got older and matured, Valentine's Day has seemed rather silly.  Why am I being forced to show someone that I love or care for them?  Shouldn't I do that around the year?  Well, of course you should.  For me, it reminds me that I should love someone even if I don't like them right then.  I once believed love was a reaction; however, real love is truly a choice, given when you don't feel like giving it.  It is an action.  It reminds me to act and show someone that despite my feeling at the time, I should love.  But, that's just me.

How do you celebrate Valentine's Day?  Ooh, ooh!  I have an idea!  A succulent red velvet cake delicately wrapped with sweet cream cheese frosting is surely a great way to enjoy the evening.  This homemade goodness will certainly make it sweeter.
