February 14 is the day of the year,
to renew love and friendship

VALENTINE

There’s nothing like a valentine,
To make a smile appear,

I like you just because you’re you.
That’s what is done this day.

Body Care Basket

Women never seem to have enough beauty products, so feed her vanity a little and get her a set of every lotion, toner, soap, and bath salt she can use. You’ll thank me later when her skin is all soft and sweet for you. Go the extra mile: Include her favorite perfume in the basket and give her a rubdown with the body cream.
