A handwritten card today beats a velvet box on the wrong day.
New Wishes
A handful of wishes pulled from the cabinet this morning. Pick one up — copy, save it to your pinboard, or send it on.
Let the holiday be loud so our love can quietly out-loud it.
I'd rather share an umbrella with you than a tasting menu with strangers.
May the chocolates be local, the wine cheap, the company unrepeatable.
Today's love budget: time, attention, the good plates.
Valentines' Day is just an alarm — the rest of the year is the actual schedule.

May the playlist be older than we are and exactly the right age.
Skip the prix fixe; cook the thing you both pretend not to crave.
Today I confess what every other day quietly assumes.
May we be each other's calmer chapter in a noisy holiday.
Love letters age well — texts do not. Pick up a pen if you can.
Let's make this Valentine's quieter than last and louder than next.
May the candles wobble and the moment hold steady.
Today is permission to be embarrassingly direct about something obvious.
Reservations for two, but the dress code is whichever sweater is closest.
May the flowers wilt slowly and your patience faster — that's marriage.
Skip the giant teddy bear; nobody knows where to put those things.
Today I'll say the corny thing and you'll pretend to mind.
May our Valentine's photo be blurry and our memory of it sharp.
Let's argue about dessert and agree about everything else.
May the dishes wait. Everything else, too.
Today I'm giving you nothing original — just everything I had on hand.
Reservations can be moved; you cannot. Lucky me.
May the holiday remember it borrowed this feeling from us.
Let's spend Valentine's the way we spend December 3rd — closer.
