Valentine's Day...A Story

After the holiday has passed, I thought, what is the origin of this?  I suspected it was a great plan brought together by merchants to pick up the lull after Christmas. 

I googled and I found!  This is an amazing but rather gruesome tail of the origin of  Valentine's Day.

Kinda makes you look at those flowers and candy a little differently.

Just read it...off with their heads! Ewwwwww, the whole red thing and all. I may never look a Valentine's Day the same again.

Have a great day, I'm trying to get this picture out of my head! :o)

So is THAT why I want to cut off my husband's head when he doesn't get me anything for Valentine's Day?
