Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! And an especially happy one to our randomly selected, lucky winner who goes by the name of… Oona (who will likely celebrate tonight with dinner at “a lovely vegan restaurant”). Congrats Oona!
We love celebrating Valentine’s Day with you guys by giving away some free jewelry, and this year Sherry’s especially stoked because the prize is coming from none other than Kendra Scott – one of her favorite places to request that I buy her earrings for various occasions (like the past two Christmases). Kendra Scott has definitely earned me a few husband points, so this (are you ready for it?) $500 gift card means that someone else out there can score major points from the one they love – or one lucky winner can grab her own jewels for herself. And probably have money leftover to share the wealth with a few friends or relatives. Oh and if you fancy yourself a Kendra Scott in the making, you can even use their Color Bar to customize several of their pieces. So yeah, Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!

Lindsey says
Jewel Me!!
Sadly, my hubby and I will not be able to celebrate Valentine’s Day this year. He’s swamped at work and I have pneumonia (yuck!). I may have to make him his favorite chocolate cake once I’m feeling better as a delayed Vday gift. Last year, I made him a cake and gave him a balloon for each year we’ve been together with a card tied to it with my favorite memory of that year :)
Hope you guys get to celebrate!

JEWEL ME!
Husband is working so we’ll have a nice home-cooked meal over the weekend.
Jill says
JEWEL ME! Nothing special for VDay. We may just grill out at home.
Tabatha Woodson says
JEWEL ME!
No big plans, we don’t like to fight the masses for dinner/movies. But they probably will be some small little surprises for each other!
Amanda T says
JEWEL ME! I’m pregnant with our first little one and I was due last Tuesday, the 5th, so I’m hoping that he’ll decide he’s ready to come out and meet us any day now and that we’ll be spending Valentine’s Day in the hospital. I had some other plans but our stubborn little guy looks like he’s going to derail those!
Rene' says
Jewel me. We decided that instead of fighting crowds in restaurants on Valentines Day we are going to celebrate Valentines Eve:)
KJ says
“JEWEL ME!”
My hubby and I like to celebrate Valentine’s day a week late. We used to have a long distance relationship during college so we would only see each other during the break in February (which was always after Valentine’s). So, as part of our tradition, we keep celebrating a week (sometimes 2) later. It’s also great for the purse strings because everything is 50% off the week after Valentine’s Day. I’m like you guys when it comes to my dolla, dolla bills.
Karen says
JEWEL ME!! We’re not too big on Valentine’s Day celebrations, so instead of faking it this year or getting flowers/dinner…we’re “adopting” two penguins from SANCCOB in our names. :) http://www.sanccob.co.za/
Ashley T says
Jewel Me!
My hubs will be out of town this Valentine’s Day. But I will enjoy celebrating with my 7.5 month old son-here’s to creating new family traditions!

Erin B. says
Jewel Me!
I’m not one for ooey gooey romantic stuff so we’ll probably just make a nice dinner at home and watch our favorite shows together.
Lisa says
JEWEL ME!
My husband and I work opposite shifts so he’s asleep when I get home from work and I’m at work when he gets home. We communicate through a lot of little handwritten notes, so for V-day I’m planning to leave little love notes around the house for him to find.
Stacy says
JEWEL ME! No special date night, as I am single this V-Day. My friend and I are hitting up a V-Day social event this weekend to meet us some eligle bachelors though. Crossing my fingers that I will find Mr. Right! :)
Maggie says
JEWEL ME! My husband and I plan to enjoy a nice dinner this weekend in Philadelphia to celebrate Valentine’s Day :)

Regina says
Jewel Me! Nothing special, just spend precious time together. My hubby already saw his gift b/c he was home when it was delivered. Busted!
Jen M says
JEWEL ME!
This week my husband and I are celebrating being a couple for 13 years so we’ll be celebrating all week, probably with a nice dinner this weekend.
Argelia says
Jewel me!
My husband and I already celebrated Valentine’s Day with a nice dinner and a movie. He’s leaving for India on the 14th, so we moved the day!
Heather Rae says
JEWEL ME! Since the fiance took me to see The Vow last Valentines (or was it the one before that?) I’m taking him to see A Good Day to Die Hard…turnabout is totally fair play in our book…
Cristina P from MD says
Jewel me!
NancyO says
JEWEL ME!
Does organizing the shed that we built while drinking wine count as a celebration?
No?
Okay. Then probably dinner in the backyard
Debbi S. says
JEWEL ME!
Nothing on Valentine’s Day proper, but will go out to dinner over the weekend. And of course, no Valentine’s Day is complete without the traditional Valentine’s Day muffins that I make every year!
Lacey Vander Plaats says
JEWEL ME!
Just the two of us with a home cooked meal and some magnificant cupcakes from a Cupcake War’s winner. Can’t wait.
Amber says
JEWEL ME!!!
My husband & I typically don’t do much fuss on Valentine’s Day. This year the plan is to go to dinner, but that’s it. We tend to celebrate the non-traditional days like the anniversary of our first date (10 years ago in June!) instead of Valentine’s Day. It makes it more fum & keeps the spark alive!
Jessica says
Jewel Me!!
Just a quiet night at home for us.
JoAnn in NJ says
JEWEL ME!
Since VD comes right before our child’s first Father/Daughter Dance and smack in the middle of Chinese New Year, we are combining and having dinner at a local “nice Chinese restaurant. I mean Nice as in it’s not a take out place. and flowers will be given to our daughter on Friday as a coursage :) She has a party in school on Thursday and we are invited to participate as well, so it will be fun day for all of us. Thanks for the contest!

JEWEL ME!
This will be the first Valentine’s Day that my husband and I have a kid, so we’ll see how that goes. We normally celebrate on the 20th because that is when my husband proposed to me :) That way we beat the crowds if we decide to go anywhere!
Yuki says

Meredith says
“JEWEL ME!”
This Valentine’s Day my parents have taken pity on me and are allowing me to go out to dinner with them since my husband is oversea for work. However, before he left I gave him his present which was a custom portrait of our puppy for v-day. You can see it on my blog, The Bier Table: http://wp.me/p34iFM-F
Lydia says
JEWEL ME!
As per tradition, my husband and I will have a romantic date at some fast food eatery. Then we’re hopping on a red eye to NYC for a fun weekend that is completely unrelated to the holiday.
Theresa W says
JEWEL ME!
We celebrate with our 3 kids, it’s a fun, low-key night of heart-shaped pizza making and chocolate eating :) Happy V-day!
Sharmela Hafen says
JEWEL ME!
We just had our second baby 8 weeks ago so this valentines day will be much more low key. And we’ll have a tag along in whatever we do. But as long as I get to spend time with my family and teach my children what it means to to celebrate those they love, I’ll be happy!

Kira K. says
Jewel me!
We aren’t planning anything special. Our son’s kindergarten class is having a party, so we’ll be sending him to school with lots of snacks and a backpack full of valentines cards to hand to his classmates!
Helen says
JEWEL ME!! We’ll just be happy if we can make it out to a movie. Just getting out of the house is a treat!
Mary-Beth says
Jewel me!
Susan Wilson says
JEWEL ME!
Of course my kiddo is taking valentines to her classmates, but other than that we have no special plans, since said kiddo has dance class on Thursday night :)
Nicole says
JEWEL ME!
Weeknights are a bit crazy for us so the hubs and I will be celebrating V-day on Friday this year with a nice dinner out. Although I may end up baking a heart-shaped cake at some point this week just for fun :)
