Because my so-called-best-friend posted that stupid HAPPY V-DAY crap, I am now forced to, not only recall the statement, but inform you of the sacred family holiday that is practiced in lieu of V.D. (as I like to call it). The grand and great holiday is known as, Mid-February! .... yes, you read right.
In the Jackson/Wirth clan, we are not victims of commercial love. NO! As Trevor says: "It's a big, fat, dumb to pick just one day to say I love you. You should say it every day in every way". And, we do. Therefore, when February rolls around we poo poo the alleged day of love and instead celebrate the time honored tradition of Mid-February.
For most of you who do not know of this tradition, you will need the following: ~Chocolate ~Pizza ~Hamster. The chocolate and pizza are for the feast (heart shaped optional) and the hamster is the mascot. The day consists of laughing, making of cards and eating, eating, eating. There is no gush of loving sentiment on Mid-February, just the cozy, warm love of your family, the good times that come from being together, and the... well, just a hamster mascot.
Many of you may be asking, "Why Carla, what about your diet"? No worries, Trevor and I finished just in time - yay! I lost 12lbs and Trevor lost 20lbs. Can you believe it! If that doesn't call for a heart shaped pizza in celebration, then I don't know what does.
To all I wish the very merriest of Mid-February!!
