VALENTINE'S is.....

 Valentine's is: Finding heart shaped cucumbers and not having the heart to munch on them....
 Valentine is: A sunset in the fog.....

 Valentine's is: Smokey at the door, in the rain and baking on a blustery day.
 Valentine's is: 1 1/2 cup butter, 2 cups margarine, 4 eggs, 1 tsp vanilla, 5 cups flour, 2 tsp baking powder, and a pinch of salt for flavour.

 Valentine's is: Spencer leaping from the Moai to search out  Smokey. Or rolling dough into discs to chill in the fridge.
 Valentine's is: Searching for that heart shaped cookie cutter.
 Valentine's is: The sun hitting low and long on Spencers golden fur.
 Valentine is: Seeing a hummingbird, high  in the tree on the hill.
 Valentine's is: Dough cut into hearts, baked at 400 degrees for about 6-8 minutes.
 Valentine's is: Hearing that hummer buzz away the minutes, happy in his own little world.

 Valentine's is: A cat in the sun. A cat in the shade.
 Valentine's is: Mixing royal icing to gob over heart cookies, while you watch the hummer in the tree.

 Valentine's is: Mt. Washington range, smothered in fog, and the Stellar Jay on grape vines, watching him steal peanuts from the seed pans.
 Valentine's is: A mountain in snow. and hearts flooded with white  royal icing.Ready to gobble down.
 "As still to the star of its worship, though clouded, the needle points faithfully over the dim sea. So dark when I roam in this wintry world shrouded, the hope of my spirit turns trembling to Thee." (Sir Thomas Moore)
