But tell me, are you a Valentines fan?
What's the best Valentines gift you've ever given or received?
What's the best Valentines gift you've ever given or received?
Food puns are THE BEST! I'm such a nerd about them! My fiance makes fun of me because it doesn't matter how lame the food pun may be, I always crack up over it and think it's the best thing in the world. I'm using that "I just can't reese-ist you" pun for him this year for sure! One of his favorite candies is Reese's. Perfect! Thank you so much!
