Say it with BLACK FOREST

Happy Valentine Day Everyone. Hope you and Family will joy and fill with love everyday along these years.

My husband is not a romantic person. Sometimes just for my birthday, other family member must remind him to bring something for me. Also for Valentine's Day. It's the weekend and he took me Somewhere else not to farmer markets for weekend shopping as usual .. I think there will be a surprise for me .. Maybe he would take me to nice restaurant with surprise romantic dinner,but I was wrong. He brought me indeed-not to farmer market- but to other shopping places which has many discount season!  hahahahaha ....

When I ask why there is no "something" for valentine day, 

he said "for what? I said 'I love you' Everyday. I kiss you more than 3 or 4 times per day.  Isn't it a day of love for you?"

Well .. I have nothing to say against it .. I just made this Black Forrest for him to show That I Love him too ... @(^_^)@
