Give her what she really wants this Valentine's Day

It was the year my mother-in-law passed away, and my wife, who was back in Saskatchewan in February tending to family matters, mentioned that she didn't want to come home to a dirty bathroom.


Your idea of the perfect romantic dinner may involve a steak house with an all-you-can-eat salad bar and several big-screen TVs, allowing you to watch the hockey game over her shoulder while simultaneously having an intimate conversation. But if she prefers a bistro with trendy waiters and artfully presented portions that empty your wallet without filling your belly, then you must make the sacrifice.

Or you can always head out to the nearest supermarket and load up on cleaning supplies. 

Rainbow roses for valentines day

Looking for a little something different to give your Valentine this year? How about rainbow roses?

We don’t know how they do it, but www.rainbowrosecompany.com and www.itsabloomingbusiness.com sell multi-colored roses and you can even design your own.

Rainbow roses are real roses said to be made by injecting dyes into the stem as they are growing. The petals then somehow absorb the dyes. After that, magic.

Rainbow roses were originally designed by Peter Van de Werken, a florist in Den Bosch, Holland.

And they aren’t cheap.

Rainbow roses can run you up to $325 for a two dozen.
