I'm not a big fan of Valentine's Day for the conventional reasons; hearts, boyfriends, and girlfriends. However, I don't have a problem with expressing love for your friends and for yourself. I have a pretty amazing group of friends, each and every one I'm eternally grateful for, and telling them that through Dove chocolates goes over extremely well. Dressing up in an artsy outfit, scarfing chocolates throughout the day, and stalking watching others immersed in the holiday is enough for me to accept it.

Also, Photo #2 and Photo #5 were taken by my talented best friend, Samantha Manzella. Check her out here: http://www.nerdysam.com/
