And we sisters, being all kinds of mature and all and not laughing over swear words like "The Hoover DAM!" and "Su-SEX, England" were suitable mortified each and every year.
If you missed that amazing literary link, please feel free to click here so you don't go to your grave regretting not reading it.
But because I am the master of tangents and not timing, I am now left Valentine-postless on the actual day because I shared this meaningful post LAST week.
...
Grrrr...
So sinced I mucked up that whole timing thing, I had to dig around on the internet to find some funny VD wishes for you!
And to complete this romantic and heart-warming post, I am going to share a little poem with you. There is a horribly mean person who hosts a meme called "Saturday Centus" and this week she made us write a Hallmark style Valentine wish around this ridiculous picture using only fifty words! To read other mushy works of art based on this soul touching graphic,click here.
Ahem....
Some say love, it is a bulldog,
Dressed in Wonderwoman clothes
Some say love, it’s droopy brown eyes
And a large, black sniffing nose.
Some say love, can be surprising
And sometimes very kind.
But if you think this dog’s romantic…
Some say you would be quite blind.
...
...
Sometimes I just get carried away with the romanticism of VD!
You're overwhelmed, aren't you?
Yeah. Me too!
Sigh...
LOL! love your poem Jenny! Happy vd day ~may you be showered with vd roses & candy~~ :)
ReplyDeleteI love the old cards! These are great! Happy VD Day to you, too!
ReplyDeleteHaha. For once I was glad I decided to sit your meme out. But I think there were a lot of cute entries, in spite of the protests.
ReplyDeleteFun poem Jenny, Happy Valentine's Day!
ReplyDeletePS-my Bake-Off idea was a total flop yesterday. Best of luck to you:@)
Happy VD to you, too!

I love those vintage cards. Valentines were more fun in those days...and I'd forgotten all the little puns and jokes they used to use.
ReplyDeleteAs for your dog-accompanying poem? Top notch!
Ahhhhh, romance...
;)
Love the cute little dog, but he/she does not look impressed by his/her costume!
ReplyDeleteThose children's Valentines are kind of scary. I love your little poem, especially the last line. So true. I also love that you and your sisters joked about suSEX, England.
ReplyDeleteHappy Valentine's and, moreover, Chocolate Day, Jenny.

ReplyDeleteGod bless and have a marvelous Valentine's Day my friend!!! :o)
Oh sweet Jenny...you never fail to crack me up! I loved, loved, loved your ode to VD! Unfortunately, the younger set today have no idea what this references as the lingo now is STD. (Isn't that a gasoline additive?) Yikes I'm old!
ReplyDeleteHysterical...as always a cut above!
ReplyDeleteOkay...now I'm going to be humming The Rose and thinking about a bulldog...thanks alot, and Happy Valentine's Day!
ReplyDeleteOf course I didn't know what VD meant, now, thanks to you I feel more instructed !
ReplyDeleteMr. G and I have never celebrated Valentine's day because it just didn't exist. It moved into Belgium and other countries slowly slowly coming from the USA just as Halloween each year a little more !Business is business !
Merry Christmas !
Hysterical! Happy Love Day to you too Jenny!
ReplyDelete~M
Ahh Jenny, such a touching and sweet VD card! I've seen lots of VD cards, but none ooze sentiment quite like yours. Awesome job!
ReplyDeleteLove the eggy valentine...
ReplyDeletesome say love can make you fall
become deaf, dumb, blind, woozy
on your accord...
some say love makes you mushy
and come up with your kind of sentimentality. ;D
I love the vintage cards...they get the point out so well! Your SC post was really cute...I had such a hard time with it..you must have had such a laugh at all our struggles. Many did actually create some amazing entries, and I really enjoyed reading them. Good ol' VD fun!
ReplyDeleteOh Jenny,
ReplyDeleteThis was really good! What has Hallmark said about it? I gather that you have already sent a portfolio to them!
