Roses are Red

Violets are blue... yadda, yadda, yadda. This time of year all of the sugary sweet talk is enough to give you cavities. Feel free to forward Hallmark the dental bill. But, by now, no matter your facebook relationship status you should just accept that Valentine's Day will roll around and unless you are up for a mascara-running cry fest, you better make some plans.

Like a Big Pizza Pie, that's Amore
Obviously Sweethearts provide only so much sustenance, so that's why you should hit up some local eateries on V-Day with your significant other or fellow single minglers. Look towards Disney's Lady and the Tramp as proof that Italian cuisine is ooh la la romantic. Say buongiorno to Cibon, Portobello's Ristorante, and Mario's Italian Steakhouse. Dinner by candlelight is quixotic; love is in the air at Restaurant 2 Vine and Edibles.

With a Cherry on Top
Valentine's Day is the perfect excuse for dessert (like you need one.) Post dinner, indulge at Cheesy Eddie's and Simply Crepes. Don't worry about those love handles after all it is Valentine's Day.

Life is More than a Box of Chocolates

Face it sweetheart, you deserve something special and so does your one and only. Shop at Craft Company No. 6 and the Jewelry Exchange Outlet Boutique for gifts beyond your standard box of stale drugstore truffles.

Save the Date

Honey, get out there and experience the city with your lovey. I heard that Rochester is quite the aphrodisiac. Oh the places to go on Valentine's Day: the Cinema Theatre, the MAG, Color-Me Mine, the Little Theater, RPO, RockVentures, and Clover Lanes.

No Strings Attached

For the unattached, Valentine's Day is not designated for sulking, watching soaps, and binging on greasy leftovers. Instead, treat yourself to some pampering at Park Ave Salon, Healing Art, Meridian Massage Therapy.

Wherever your heart takes you, don't forget to stop in the name of love and fully appreciate the day.
