» jerrib - Valentine's Day

As the New Year is popping in tomorrow, I guess it is time to start thinking of Valentine's Day. I was very surprised to see Valentine's candy displayed at my local grocery store yesterday!

Yes, that is typical. As soon as Christmas is over they start displaying the Valentine's stuff.

About the name of the saint. It is Valentinus in the original Latin and in most languages. English-speaking people insist on anglicizing names, so they changed it to Valentine.
