While there he bid on a box of unknown for a dollar and won the bid... it was a slow auction. Inside the box were old and intricate gorgeous Valentine’s Day candy heart boxes, did I say gorgeous? He gave me a pick and I chose a simple burgundy red pretty velvet box with flower on it. Anyhow Chris put them up on eBay and bidding went wild and when all actions were finished he made $1,200 on a dollar buy. Very collectible and precious indeed.<br />xoxoRow homes and Cobblestoneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01643916045622529275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145927977814106970.post-91928362922069280562018-01-24T16:49:39.239-06:002018-01-24T16:49:39.239-06:00That man of yours is most definitely a keeper!

I have received jewelry and flowers in the past, but I don't think I've ever received chocolates. I think Brian knows I'm pretty picky about my chocolate (I only like dark chocolate, and the truly good quality kind) and he's not a sweet eater himself, so he'd have no idea what to pick out.

We usually go out for a nice dinner (so I don’t have to cook). I think the box with money is a cute idea. My adult kids are watching their diets so I can’t give them sweets. I always send cards to my Mom, three sisters and my kids. Too bad I’m diabetic now otherwise I’d be chewing on that perfect man! LOL.

Those boxes you showed sure brought back memories. I still think of that tradition now and then. I used to buy those littler ones for my sons when they were smaller. They loved them. My hubby and I now don't usually exchange anything.. maybe a card.. but sometimes we forget or just don't. On a budget, we decided several years ago not to spend the money.. I sometimes do buy him one of those little boxes of Whitman's sampler chocolates, usually 4 in a box. He always loves that. I don't need chocolate so I'm happy not to receive any! Valentine's Day has gotten so commercial and it makes you feel guilty not to get anything for your family! I usually send handmade cards to my sisters and son though as a nice time to express my love for them. Loved the chocolate man of course! xoxoxo MarilynMarilyn McLeod @ Pink Paper Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13166022624714254716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145927977814106970.post-4318594412162990892018-01-23T13:21:44.156-06:002018-01-23T13:21:44.156-06:00Got a big laugh from the "perfect man" c...Got a big laugh from the "perfect man" chocolate!!!!Rose Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07180873324576064516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145927977814106970.post-92211820229794572072018-01-23T10:00:56.743-06:002018-01-23T10:00:56.743-06:00Good morning Kris, I love the vintage Valentines t...Good morning Kris, I love the vintage Valentines too!
