A Golden Valentine’s Day
I just read that the average person will spend $126.03 celebrating Valentines this year. That’s a whole lot of chocolate, flowers, and dinners.
In the past, I’ve usually made some type of printable to help bring that cost down to nearly zero. I’ve made Valentine’s Day Coupons, Lionel Richie Coloring pages, classroom Valentine’s, even Valentine’s for the workspace.
This year I came up with the perfect idea for Valentine’s after I found out some amazing history of a writer I work with after getting a LinkedIn invitation – she use to work on one of my favorite sitcoms of all time, “The Golden Girl’s”.
Oddly enough, I worked on one of her favorite shows on all time during my last year of college, “Home Improvement.” But of course her stories are much more interesting. We didn’t have a staff masseuse or Betty White, or Bea Arthur, or Rue McClanahan, or Estelle Getty.
Anyways…what was my point? Oh yeah, my perfect idea was “The Golden Girl’s” Valentines since I’ve always referenced them over the years.
But then I saw these:
This (brilliant) guy already beat me to them! Something that struck me as odd about this guy, he plays the accordion too just like me.
(Insert Twilight zone music and Dorothy’s “Oh c’mon” line)
But… does he play Depeche Mode on it like I do?

I always want to spend next to nothing on VD, but then panic at the last moment and throw $ at gifts. Then Mrs. LIAYF will stick to our plan. Never fails.
