Default Re: Valentine\'s Help : GF overseas

Edge,
OK, this situation warrants something really cute and romantic. Flowers are fine, but they're overpriced and utterly generic. (IMO, flowers are best as a complete surprise, not for apologies or holidays). Here are some ideas:

1. Cut a heart out of cardboard and turn it into a custom postcard for your honey. Write a funny poem on it. Better yet, a series of postcards - hearts that get bigger and bigger and culminate in a special gift package.
2. Send her your favorite romantic novel or a children's story. Highlight or bookmark the page that has an inside joke or special meaning for you two.
3. Send her a heart shaped box filled with individual notes. Each note says something you want to do with her when she gets back to the States.
