I love Valentine’s Day. Yup, you heard me right, a member of the chronically-single who loves Valentine’s Day. Why? Because I use it as a day to celebrate the most important person in my life–Me!
So how do you rock a single Valentine’s Day? Well, it’s simple.
Step One: Treat Yo’ Self.
I bought me a present! How sweet. I won’t tell me what it is yet (I have to wait until this evening to unwrap it), but I’m sure I got me just what I wanted! I know me so well.
Step 2: Treat(s) Yo’ Self.
I love cookies. So not only did I make me cookies for breakfast, I’m going to make me cookies for dinner too. Because if there’s anyone I know who deserves cookies for two meals in one day, it’s me.
Step 3: Work Your Heart.
…Or at least your chest. Benching my own body weight at the gym this morning means I can pick me up when I’m down.
Step 4: Stop to smell the flowers.
How did I know yellow roses are my favorite??
Step 5: Appreciate yo’ self.
Because frankly, I’m pretty darn awesome, and I see nothing wrong with letting me know that.
Happy Valentine’s Day!





LOVE this post, Allie…it drives me nuts when singletons bash Valentine’s Day! Love comes in all shapes & sizes, including self-loving! And hey it’s another excuse to load up on the chocolate right

This post is awesome. Nothing like treating ourselves to the good stuff. I think I may just go shopping on my lunch break. Hm not sure if that’s treating myself a little too much! Have a great Valentine’s Day and enjoy the cookies
treat yo self, love it. now I need to decide how to celebrate v day single lady status
Happy Valentine’s day to you too…enjoy!
LOL! Love this! Can’t wait to see what you got.
Love this post! Can’t love nobody else until you love yourself
Enjoy the cookies and your present
Love this! I always love v-day whether I’m single or taken. Happy Valentine’s daaay!
I like the way you think. Getting yourself a present and then wrapping it, now that’s dedication and will power. I’m impressed.
I don’t do romance, at least not well, but I do like flowers so I got some star gazer lillies this a.m., and in return I shall make him scrambled eggs and potatoes for dinner tonight. Lucky man. Happy Valentine’s Day or Non-V Day (me) or Happy VD (as one of my coworkers put it). Naughty, naughty.
yesssssssss, girl. Love this!
Just when I thought you couldn’t get anymore awesome…
I don’t do V-Day. Andrew and I call it, “Happy I Still Need To Go Eat Dinner Day.” We have epic stories involving near dine-and-dash and a Casio keyboard. I can only imagine what tonight will hold.
girl, I just adore you & every single one of your posts!
what a great post!!!! Nothing beats self love!
the most important person to love on V-day is yourself and enjoyed reading how you enjoyed the day by treating youself right!!! Rock On and those cookies look totally delicious -
hahahaha I swear I never fail to get a laugh when I visit your site. “I can pick me up when I am down” hahahaha you are fantastic. Sounds like you nailed the perfect way to celebrate Valentine’s day!
This is not only my favorite Valentine’s Day post…I think it is my favorite post ever!! 100% you should always love yourself and treat yourself good!! P.S – awesome work on benching your own weight girl!!
I CRACKED up at the gift… you know yourself so well hahaha
So cute!!
LOVE this.
Just what all the single, Valentine’s Day haters need to hear.
I kind of forgot it was Valentine’s Day to be honest. I’ll just pick another day—maybe EVERY day?–to celebrate ME.
