Healthy Chicks

Let’s be honest: some people loath Valentine’s Day, and some people love it. Single ladies usually hate the damn day (I know, as I was one of them for 23 straight years). I even cried in 5th grade because the boy I had a crush on gave a Valentine to my best friend and not me. Then in college I had to watch all of my roommates get serenaded with balloons, roses, and fancy dinners as I sat there alone. Valentine’s day SUCKED BALLS and let me tell you all that advertising and lovey dovey stuff in the stores didn’t help one bit. Seriously…what are they trying to do to the singles out there?

This will be the first Valentine’s Day I’ll celebrate with a boy…who I actually really like. Gee, I feel like I’m in Elementary School all over again. While I am super duper ecstatic, I still feel for all those V-Day haters. C’mon I was one of them for my entire life…a gal doesn’t forget. BUT luckily I’ve discovered a way for BOTH singles and couples to enjoy the red & white day of love. Love shmuv. This has nothing to do with boyfriends or dates or … Read More!

So as you know I usually do “Quotable Sunday” over here at Healthy Chicks, but I decided to change it up for the Suberbowl’s sake and do Video Sunday instead. I’m sure many of you are super excited for today’s game, but me…well I go for the tasty snacks (um bean dip, puhlease) and hilarious commercials. Oh, and the raffle where you’re assigned a few boxes with numbers (whatever that’s called). I even won one year, having no idea what was going on during the game! What can I say, I’m totally one of those girls.

Well here’s one of the top commercials from last year…can’t wait to see what this year brings! Enjoy!

The L word has been flowing around everywhere lately…maybe it’s the Valentine’s Day season or something in the air but I’m telling you it’s EVERYWHERE. And unfortunately, lots of these L Bombs have been dropped on accident. EEK! Take the girl on the Bachelor the other night for example – I think her name is Chantal – who said “Everything you do just makes me love you even more…I mean like..er…oops.” AWKWARD.

Then there was my roommate who recently said “I love you poopsie” to the guy she just started dating after he took care of her while throwing up. That was another one of those “oops” moments. Luckily he told her to shut up and go back to bed (phew). I have another roommate in college who used to throw it out there to anyone and everyone, even the mailman or strange studdy buddy from her German class. Sometimes it just comes out. So take this lesson with open ears, and try to stick with “I like you a lottttt” until you really mean it.
