FOR YOUR VALENTINE
February 12, 2010
The ladies of Bear Pond present our favorite gift ideas for your Valentine:
Sexually I’m More of a Switzerland A follow-up to They Call Me Naughty Lola, the brutally self-aware and hysterical personals ads from the London Review of Books.
Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte for the truly romantic in all of us
Lynne’s Pick:
Why My Third Husband Will Be a Dog by Lisa Scottoline Believe it or not Lynne’s the staff romantic!
The Ballad of Valentine by Allison Jackson A sweet children’s picture book with great illustrations – and a pig.
Suzanne’s Pick:
Six Word Memoirs on Love and Heartbreak by Writers Famous and Obscure
Some funny, some touching, all clever. Let your imagination wander with: “Bachelor Visits Library, Books Wife (Non-Fiction)”
Mary’s Pick:
The dark chocolate truffles by Home R Truffles, made by local chef (and Jane’s husband) Paul Knight. It’s hard for Mary to focus on books when there’s chocolate on the front counter.
Claire’s Pick:
Asian Dumplings by Andrea Nguyen What could be more of a romantic gesture than making your little dumpling a nice plate of Chinese Chive Dumplings?
