Valentine's Day

It may take more than a six pack and beef jerky to wow your sweetheart.

Try this:

http://abcnews.go.com/Business/Busin...pup?id=4272807

"For one of the best views in New York, consider taking your sweetheart to Asiate, perched high above Central Park in the Mandarin Oriental hotel. Menu items for the restaurant's $225 Valentine's Day meal include Kumamoto oysters, truffle soup and a Wagyu beef tenderloin."

Ok, I see its not the food, or the level of care, or the support of a fellow member, it's the view... Thats ok, I can deal with that, but I assure you if she is looking at the view she isn't interest in you. You just wasted two and quarter.

Time and chocolate.

Dark chocolate.

Chocolate with raspberries.

Chocolate truffles with red wine.

I'm a simple girl; all I really need is time with Mr. LRD.

But if he comes bearing chocolate? That's a nice bonus.
