I am becoming less and less up for the hyped-up holidays and events. Christmas is becoming jaded. New Year’s should be a small cozy gathering. CNY... never liked it much, too many questions. Next is line is the dreaded Valentine’s Day. It always gets to me why should there be a day for you to; buy flowers, write in little cards, some dinner somewhere. All to show the special someone you adore, well how much you adore them. I know that the day is meant for family too (but admit it, you will only say that if you are single.) I mean come on, you need a day to remind you to have a little romance, when everyone else trying to do the same? Let me give you my predictions. If flowers are a commodity (they are actually), put your money in it. Don’t forget the wrapping paper and ribbons, paper might see a rise. Then there is a scarce amount of cabs around, especially the Mercedes and London cab. Most hotels will have no rooms (apparently, the number of children born in the month of November is quite significant.) And food, forget dinning out. And, there is a strange lack of teddy bears around. And, the SPCA is going to be busy the next weeks or so.



Romance is for everyday. We don’t need a day for it. Here, is my first attempt at cooking a main dish. Cod wrapped in bacon. She made the salad. Got the thumbs up. Not meant for Valentine's Day, just meant for Starry.
