I got a box of pretty pink macarons in assorted flavours. Waiting for DS to be asleep so we can share them. We don't normally do anything for Valentine's Day so it was a nice surprise.

I got some red roses and some little love duck figurines, which sit nicely next to our handmade birds nest cake topper that was on our wedding cake a week or so back

Umm nothing. Not even a kiss or a 'Happy Valentine's' We don't really do the Hallmark holidays.

He is away from home at the moment but sent a text message with a phrase that means absolutely nothing to anyone but us. It made me smile and go a bit mushy inside.

I'm in the nothing camp he is away and "forgot" what the date was we've never celebrated it, so its no skin off my nose.
