My Fastfood Valentine Celebration

A lot of lovers would have spent love day in a romantic place or had a romantic candlelight dinner. Not me. But that does not mean that I did not enjoy it or that it was not romantic enough.
For me, spending Valentine’s Day is not just about where to celebrate – though, ambience can help a bit. What is important, is/are the people I am with. At least, I was with the people who give meaning to the day so my Valentine’s Day was complete.
Where did we go? Mc Donald’s! I enjoyed it, not because of the fillet-o-fish that I had (that is the only thing I can have for lunch at McDonald’s, being a vegetarian), but because it was spent with my family. While a romantic dinner for two in an equally-romantic place would sound better than what I had, I wouldn’t trade our fastfood Valentine’s lunch for anything.
It is the unlikely choice for a Valentine’s treat, isn’t it? But it was a sweet gesture by my husband, as he wanted the kids to enjoy as well with us. This whole week, he was on leave in time with the kids’ half term break so he could spend time with us. Last Monday, he brought us to a castle in the English Midlands, and tomorrow, we will be celebrating our 12th year anniversary. I am a happy wife and mother and I thank God for that.
What about you, how did your day go?
