I have received Waterford crystal for Valentines Day for a number of years now. It is nice to see the tradition continue.<\/p>\n<p>Today, a box containing a dozen delicious chocolate-covered strawberries showed up. You can see from the image above, that I already enjoyed one of these tasty delicacies before taking the photo, since there are only eleven left in the box now in the fridge. I plan to &#8220;ration&#8221; them out at no more than one per day until they&#8217;re gone.
