PB is sick and tired of the advertisements for Valentine's Day. Now, PB is not one of those jaded women; however, do we really need to see all those advertisements for Kay jewelers, over priced "pajama grams", over priced Vermont teddy bears, and of course the totally crunchy red rose bouquet? totally chunky and expired says PB. When grown male Nuts go into tizzies over whether to send the roses to work or home says there is something wrong.
so what should all the Nuts do? PB says get creative, spontaneous, or do something good for the world. So if some of you nuts are going to shell out $50+ on flowers that will die in 2 days than might PB suggest adopting a totally cuddly animal of nature? Try WWF where my Nuts can adopt a cuddly Polar Bear, a Moose, a Tortouise, among other woodland creatures.
So PB is not totally expired regarding Valentine's Day because nothing is greater than Love. But PB feels it should be shared every day. to quote a famous woman-

Maybe PB is just chunky b/c peanuts are not truly recognized for their true aphrodesiac potential? So here's to trying to invade the Red Day with the greatest spread ever. PB!

Is this day more about love or obligation? There's nothing wrong with sharing the love, but the commercialism and pressure of this day has gotten out of hand - like every holiday this country celebrates. Shady gives P.B.'s post a big Jelly! Jelly!
Hey Thanks Shady. PB likes to spread the Love too, but only if the love is displaced correctly. The commercialized pressure is beyond totally chunky. PB agrees with Shady's newest post too.. Pay it Forward Nuts Amazing things happen.
Totally love the adoption idea. Thinking about it for my little peanut! Thanks for the idea!
