The 5oz Foodie

I am a hopeless romantic... I love Christian Romances, Hallmark Movies and chick flicks... I love their predictability, their happily ever after and the true love found... I love the feeling it gives me in my tummy and in my heart...  I have never been "in Love" but I know what love is...it is beautiful and special and it should be unconditional...  I know it doesn't always happen over night either, sometime it takes it time and comes softly like a whisper on the wind...

I am so glad my Kittens came through their surgeries yesterday without any problems, but now the poor babies are doomed to the cone of shame for two weeks...I have sacrificed my own comfort in my bed so the kittens can have a quiet room to themselves while they heal and I am taking up residency on the couch for the time being... For a total change of subject... This coming week brings to us the greeting card and florist industries biggest day of the year, next to Mother's Day... It is none other than Valentine's Day!!! So what does a single gal do the week before the biggest anti-singles day of the year, next to New Year's Eve??? She watched a romance on the Hallmark Channel of all things... However this movie was incredible... It told the story of an 80 year old woman that goes to the train station every Valentine's Day to wait for her Husband to come home from the War... The movie takes you from when they met and married, to him being sent away on a Naval ship dur...

We watched a great mushy Christmas love story tonight, and there was this great advice the father gave his daughter about finding the right one... He said, "There are a lot of people you can live with, but there is only one person you can't live with out." It's sad that more people don't believe that. I have friends that have spent their adult lives jumping from one relationship to the next, not taking the time to get to know the person before "getting to know" the person. They are more worried if they are physically compatible before knowing if the rest of their lives are... Maybe I have read to many Christian romances or watched too many Lifetime or Hallmark Channel movies but I truly believe that when you meet that one person you can't live without, your world changes... You can't get through your day without thinking of that person, you don't remember what your life was like before you met them and you don't know what you would do...
