I am interested in how the Groklings treat valentines day. Also would Grok treat his lady to a nice dinner or would it just be a big cave orgy?

I started the day fantastically and we can leave it at that.

Had a big breakfast, worked from home while my wife brought me my morning cuppa and provided company while I kicked corporate ass.

Had a spartan lunch, a large (7oz) can of sardines. Snacked on pistachios and really good salami throughout the day.

Made a dinner of walnut crusted baked brie (her favorite) with balsamic vinegar on baby spinach and heirloom purple tomatoes. Her entree was crab-stuffed salmon, mine was 6 curry-crusted lambs chops. We split a bottle of sangiovese. Surprisingly enough I cooked this meal in about 25 minutes.

I'm writing this while she is helping our son do homework, and I'm enjoying a further imbibe of scotch whisky (a habit I will not break, after such a massive, rich meal - that might happen 3 times a year).

And I'm (hoping) I will end the day as I started. And that is awesome.

Was it Paleo? Probably not.

Would "Grok" (sic) approve? Exceptional attention and work ethic in an effort to win favor with loved ones and mindblowing sex? HELLS EFFIN' YES!

To-morrow is Saint Valentine's day,
All in the morning betime,
And I a maid at your window,
To be your Valentine.
Then up he rose, and donn'd his clothes,
And dupp'd the chamber-door;
Let in the maid, that out a maid
Never departed more.

Free from the trappings of religions and corporations, Grok would have escaped Valentine's day.

... I hope that he would have delighted Mrs. Grok with a nice dinner.

... then an orgy.

Nothing says "Grok loves you" like a nice beef heart for dinner.

Legend has it St. Valentine was a priest who married couples despite a ban throughout the Roman Empire.

So, to truly avail yourself of the spirit of the day, do something our version of Empire has banned. Do so responsibly, of course. Don't go and get yourself martyred.

Grok would say..."You had me at Bacon."

I received a lovely bouquet of bacon roses, a PVC roller, and some homemade blueberry Larabars!
