Lately, I’ve been pouring over some of my favorite food websites, cursing the shipping costs and wishing that I had a Fox and Obel (Chicago) or Zabar’s (NYC) down the street for me to shop for delectable and beautifully-wrapped food gifts.

I keep going back on forth on my opinion of Valentine’s Day. Part of me thinks, “I don’t need a special day set aside for me to profess my undying love to my husband. He knows I love him and I know he loves me and I don’t need February 14 to be set aside [...]
