Share your Valentine's Day wishes
Contributed by: Erin Feese/YourHub.com   on 2/5/2008

Are you stumped on what to give your sweetie for Valentine's Day this year? Flowers are always a safe bet, but if you want to get a bit more creative, why not post a story on YourHub.com? Tell us the quirky story of how you met, the secrets you've discovered to make your relationship last or just a shout-out to the object of your affection.

If you have a funny Valentine's Day story, such as a date that went awry, feel free to share that as well. Do you think Valentine's Day is a silly holiday made up by greeting card and candy companies?

What is your favorite childhood memory of the day? As a kid, I always enjoyed how my parents made it a family holiday with a nice sit-down dinner and little presents. I also remember sneaking into my parents' cars in the morning and leaving them valentines on the dashboard.

Thinking about Valentine's Day has made me crave a box of those little candy hearts! I wonder if anyone here at the office would go for a valentine exchange, just like in elementary school? I just want an excuse to decorate a shoebox with hearts and doilies.

If you're looking for something fun to do on Feb. 14, The Rink at Belmar is hosting a "Valen-Twins" look-alike party. If you and your honey (or anyone you can talk into it) dress alike, you'll get free skating. If you go, I'd love to see a photo! For all the details, click here.
