Not-So-Nice Candy Heart Stickers

First to recommend

Description

Those candy hearts for Valentine's Day always tasted gross to me... even as a child I would pass on the sugary confections for a serving of paste, or crayon, or paint chip... anyway, I digress...

These little stickers have the phrases you wish you could say, but etiquette and karma prevent you from verbalizing.

"Not if you were the last person on Earth"
"Need love? Get a pet"

Poignant, snarky, funny... just how I like my Valentine's Day.

"LOVE STINKS" SOAP

First to recommend

Description

Love can sometimes stink... in fact love can sometimes be rank, putrid, rotten and (running out of synonyms....) gross.

But YOU don't have to. Enter the Love Stinks soap. Wear your bitterness on your sleeve and a fresh scent on your hands.

Learning to Love You More

Description

I love Miranda July (Me, You & Everyone We Know).

This book epitomizes my "all you need is love" mantra. It's full of introspective, karmic building exercises: 1)write your life story in one day, 2)give past some advice...

Cause some self-love is always a good thing.

Red Lips Bath Pillows

First to recommend

Description

If you have no love on Valentine's Day- don't sweat it... but if you're really upset about it...

Run a hot bath, drink a chocolate martini and rest your melon on this bath pillow... and know that those are the only lips that will be touching you... sorry.

If you have $18 to burn and a hankering to buy your date the most grandiose, fluffy token of affection- try the jumbo heart.

For everyone else- giggling is fine.
