I think its really sweet, but wow! I hadn't even thought about valentines day. I consider pancake day a much more important festival that need to be celebrated as often as possible

If it's what you want, then NO I wouldn't laugh.Some people think I'm crazy cause for our 10 year Anniversary that will be coming up soon, I want a bedroom suite. I have NEVER had one and want one.

I think its a great gift and its what you want!

We bought circus tickets for our mutual valentine's present to eachother and will have a great time watching it. I'd much rather do that than have flowers that will die in a few days.

That's a great gift because you would use it every morning, and it's a nice start to your day. Besides Starbucks had really cute Valentines ones and I have one, and it's all hearts and so cute!!

nope- because my entire family is constantly getting my sister kimmy everything coffee related for ever holiday.
that's all she wants most of the time
this year i got her some really nice gourmet coffee syrups, mugs and other things to go with it and everyone got her starbucks cards and coffee
she was in heaven
so no- i think it's a nice gift- and it's truly what you want and your hubby gets if for you- there's nothing wrong with that

It shouldn't matter what other people think, if it's something you want or need then that's all that matters. Btw, chocolate is a great gift at ANY time! *drools*

I wouldn't laugh I would by far rather have something I need then alway's something I want. I got a new over the stove Micowave for Chriatmas because I could think of a thing I really wanted, the oven I needed.

I agree with not playing to all the hype of Valentines Day, personally, roses don't last because Magnum smacks them around and they die shortly after (and I have no vases left because he has an obsession with trying to take the flowers out of them but he is less than graceful).
If a thermos is what you want then that is the best gift! i LOVE the mouse tablet and pen I got for xmas, but when I told my friends they all laughed and thought it was kinda sad.

I am all about practical gifts, too. I had looked at a great curling brush months ago, and I was so proud of my sweetie for remembering the exact one I wanted and got it for my last birthday.
