Philia, eros, ludus, storge—it's all about LOVE! This week as we gear up for Valentine's Day, let us remember that this day can be what you make it. Feel free to get all mushy and romantic or spend it telling your friends how much you care and appreciate them. If you are anything like me, you'll be using Valentine's Day as an excuse to buy yourself candy! However you plan on celebrating, we would absolutely love it if you checked out what we have in store for you this week!
