The Valentine's Day formula hasn't changed much over the years. It still means flowers, heart-shaped candy, romantic dinners, and small, shiny gifts. Oh, and silly valentines cards too. Over a billion of the things are sent each year worldwide. Mostly to 3rd grade school teachers. People say this practice began in the 15th century with Charles, Duke of Orleans, who sent several love letters to his wife while he was a prisoner of war. One valentine even depicted Cupid in the act of piercing a man's heart with an arrow. Ahh, those were the good old days. Such romance.
