"Valentines day, then and now..." Judith Whitehead' (Inspiration Sunday)

Valentines day, then and now


Judy and Steve recently
enjoy the fruits
of their labor,
Jewish style deli!  ;-)

This weekend marks the holiday Saint Valentines Day that seems to be an Americanized holiday celebrated by all.
Judy and  Steve a few years back
on their wedding day!
  


In our earlier years of "young love" we always exchanged gifts, did flowers and candy and gifts with a special dinner celebration.  After 41 years of marriage, we have digressed to a very simple gift such as candy and a nice dinner we can enjoy.  

By this stage in our lives, whatever we need we just buy. It has become so Americanized that the stores have made a fortune over the years in selling candy and items that attract young buyers to show their love for one another.  
Judith with friends and
loved ones wishing all
 a Happy Valentines Day!


Some people have gone to celebrating the day after the holiday as all candy is marked down by 75%...  When we were first dating my husband gave me a stuffed animal that I still do have to this day, one size
fits all, as I gave him a sweater that fits about half of him today that we still have kept.  I guess we have "filled" out over the years.

So as I wish you all a Happy Valentines Day, enjoy your candy and gifts and take the time to wish the loves of your lives happiness. 

P.S.
Check out Judith's book!;
"Having written this short book about The Tales and Tribulations in my life, I am selling it for $11.00."

 "I repeat, each sale will have a partial donation from proceeds to Cancer research and to those that are in a fight for Breast Cancer."



"Send me a message if you are interested in purchasing one. 
Thank you!"


Judy, Judy, Judy!  ;-)
