The flowers were beautiful.
The card was…well, it was a card.

24 shards of brilliance… read them below or add one
Awwww, well, at least he remembered. And, they are organic! No lead paint!
I must be married to his older brother. Same sense of humor!
Wow. Organic roses! Impressive.
Hah! At least he didn’t write a dirty limerick.
Lovely! Reminds me of the time my hubby gave me software for our anniversary!
Aren’t all great poets men or women of few words?
I’ll take organic over a sappy sentiment any day.Gorgeous flowers.
Better then nothing, which is what I got. And I had dinner at a diner while I graded quizzes.
I actually like that card a lot.
Dang. I think it’s really romantical.
The ellipsis suggests that there’s something else coming. I wonder what it is?
I don’t even get flowers anymore. I get a simple card that says, “flowers die, but our love will last forever…”every year. same line. ugh.
I got a card from my husband once that had a picture of a cartoon skunk on the front, with a little pink heart hovering above its rear end.Inside it said, “Love is in the air.”
Those are beautiful flowers, and it’s awesome that they are organic.I’d be fine with the card, if only it was grammatically correct…
Is it safe to say that you didn’t have to take your flowers out of plastic wrap (ala Sam’s Club) and arrange them yourselves like some of us?
Mothergoosemouse: I think what was coming…were the flowers.Caramama: I think he’d argue the grammar is what makes it funny. (Then again, I’d probably argue back.)
Awesome! I would love him even more after that.
If you don’t stay married to him, let me know. I’ll scoop him up. He’s funny.
I LOVE it.
Hmmmm. . . Does “organic style” mean that the roses aren’t really organic – that they just look that way? Just askin’.
Hey, at least you got something. I got “zippo.” Now, granted we don’t really celebrate Valentine’s day but a nice card wouldn’t have been bad.
Well — someone to laugh with is very romantic!
That is hilarious! Feel the love!
Oh, but they’re organic — that’s so cool!
