 The month of February brings Groundhog Day (2nd), Super Bowl LII (4th), and President's Day (19th) but the most important and fun holiday is Valentine's Day (14th), which falls on a Wednesday this year.
Are you among the 62% of adults who say they celebrate Valentine's Day? Candy, flowers and gifts are exchanged but there are many special activities offered for this day. Think Valentine teas, romantic dinners, benefit concerts and cruises. Or have a relaxed approach this year and take a hike or enjoy a picnic, depending on the weather.
 To the far left see a few Valentine's recipes, just in case you are cooking for that special someone this year. More can be found in our Sally's Place recipe section.
All the best in food, wine, and travel.
