Valentine's Day is always special in our house, and this year is no exception. In the past, we have been happy to share an intimate dinner at home and exchange token gifts along with a poem, piece of art, or something else we crafted.
This past Sunday, after settling in after our weekly food shoping trip, I discovered that a Toys R Us in Florence, Alabama (home of the University of North Alabama, alma mater of George "Goober" Lindsey) had several Wii's in stock. My wife volunteered to drive out and pick me up one of the consoles, knowing I have been hoarding gift certificates and holiday cash for such an occasion.
An hour later, Wii in the car, we were enjoying a surprisingly good dinner and making plans for next Valentine's Day...
Can any Wii owners recommend any games? (a bonus if they are for two playerw, this was a Valentine's gift, after all)

The one thing we miss living in the deep South is decent bagels, but that's another story altogether...
I'm a big fan of rosemary bagels with goat cheese spread liberally on them (cream cheese is unacceptable, see Stephen Jenkins' excellent book, Cheese Primer). Starting my morning with a bagel and big mug of white tea is wonderful way to wake up (along with walking our dog, Lily, and updating my blog).
