Happy Valentine's Day

Up until the 1500's, the word Valentine, meant the person whose name was picked from a box to be chosen as your sweetheart.

Then around 1533, it meant the folded piece of paper with the sweethearts name on it.

By 1610 it became the gift given to this special someone, and by 1824, it then became a poem, letter or verse to that special someone.
and today, one might get any where from nothing, to the garbage taken out with out asking, to a quick slap on the butt along with a Happy Valentine's day honey, to chocolates and roses; but ask any wife/mother what is the best gift and she will say..."Take me out for supper."
