Valentine's Day

So, I don't know about you, but my Valentine's Day was awesome..Yes, I still get excited about this cheesy commercialized holiday.

We had a babysitter for the night. I got all fancied up (high heels and everything). Eric got home around 6:30. He walked in with his hands behind his back (although it really is hard to hide a bouquet of flowers behind your back). And he goes "I guess you were kind of expecting this." It still made me smile and I was so happy to get them. They were purple roses.

 Then he goes "Oh, wait. I forgot something else in the car." I was not expecting anything else so it kind of surprised me. He walked out to the car and came back with another gift (complete with Target bag wrapping and all). I opened the bag and it was a new can opener. Ok, this might not sound like much to you, but you have to understand how bad I've been needing a new can opener. I had one of those that you just set on top of the can and press the button and it opens the can, but it stopped working. So one night, I just ran down to the dollar store and got another cheap can opener. You cannot even begin to understand how much I despised this thing. It worked when it wanted to work. I mean the motor ran and everything but it would not cut into the can. It would take me 6 or 7 minutes just to get a can open. So anyway, this one is a dream come true. Stainless steel and has a bottle opener and knife sharpener on it (don't know how much either of those options will be used though).

Then he said again "Oh wait, there's something else in the car." This I DEFINITELY was not expecting. He came back with something else that he again, not-so-successfully hid behind his back. It was a Keurig coffee maker!!! I was so excited. He got some major points with me on this one :) I have used this thing every day since I got it! And I finally have energy to do stuff around the house. Before now, I've just gone without a coffee maker. For a few reasons really.

1. I'm the only one in the house who drinks coffee
2. It's way to much hassle for me to make a whole pot of coffee for just me
3. It's really wasteful since I only drink one cup anyway

Now, I can brew a cup and it only take about 15 seconds. I can change up my flavors everyday. I don't waste any coffee. You can adjust the temperature on it, so it gets it exactly the right temperature for me. And you can pick your cup size! I swear, whoever invented this thing is a genius! (I'm starting to think they should pay me for this mini advertisement I just did. Feel free to contact me if you happen to work for Keurig.)

Ok, then we had a slight misuderstanding. Eric said we were having dinner so I assumed we were going out, and he assumed I was making something. We compromised and ordered in and watched a Netflix movie. It was really nice.

On another note, I just came across this website. It's like a vitamin/all natural website. For those of you continuing to work on those New Year's Resolutions that may include weight loss or getting healthy, you need to check this out. It's called Vitacost. Click HERE and go sign up. When you do, jsut for signing up under me, you get a $10 credit towards your first purchase (it immediately emails it to you when you sign up). Then in turn, I get $10 for referring you. Let me tell you a good steal that you can't afford to miss, if you're not sure what to buy. Once you sign up, go to the main page and in the search option type in Jason PowerSmile All Natural Whitening Toothpaste 3 pk. You get 3 tubes of whitening toothpaste and when you use your coupon code, you get it for FREE!!! You don't even have to pay shipping! How cool is that? This is what I used mine for. So go check it out. You have nothing to lose. And if you use your $10 coupon code and just get the toothpaste like I mentioned, you don't even have to enter any credit card info. Just your shipping address!
