The exact origin for Valentine’s Day is uncertain and may have been a dark and bloody festival, a big change from the romantic holiday it has become now with candy, flowers and gifts. Living in the snow belt, there are no flowers (or even dandelions) to pick for one’s sweetheart so the florist shops do a lot of business. The although cold weather would encourage romantic snuggling but I would prefer chocolates if I can’t have spring flowers blooming.
