Trivial "Truths" About Valentine's Day, Chocolate Treats and Red Roses
Just how did Valentine's Day get its start? Some think that Valentine's Day originated in an ancient festival which honored the founding of Rome and also honored Juno, the Roman goddess of love and marriage. The festivities were held every February 15th on a hillside near Rome, and included a lottery in which unmarried females and eligible bachelors were matched for the following year.
Why do lovers exchange chocolate treats on Valentine's Day? It may be because they believe that chocolate's mysterious properties will seduce their lover's heart so he (or she) will return the feelings, according to legend.
So is chocolate really a powerful aphrodisiac? Casanova, the famous lover, apparently thought so. He reportedly drank it daily to increase his amorous energy. It seems he also preferred chocolate over champagne as his aphrodisiac of choice.
Do you know that the shape of your favorite chocolate treats might reveal clues to your personality as a lover? If you prefer rectangles, you are said to be a loyal, romantic lover, and one who will shower your Valentine with attention. It is also said that "rectangles" will pay close attention to the details of seduction, according to www.couplescompany.com. If you prefer square shapes, you are supposed to believe that everything must be done well, and that includes good sex. And if you prefer circle shapes, you are seen as someone who likes to flirt and who is not ready for a committed relationship.
How popular are those special postmarks for Valentine letters and cards? In Loveland, Colorado, senior volunteers hand-stamp a special romantic postmark on an average 200,000 cards and letters. And the towns of Romeo, Michigan and Juliette, Georgia jointly re-mail Valentine's Day cards and letters with a Romeo and Juliette postmark.
Are red roses the most popular Valentine's Day flower? The symbol of romantic love and enduring passion, red roses comprise 43% of the flowers purchased for Valentine's Day, according to aboutflowers.com. But 44% of consumers purchased mixed flowers, edging out the traditional red rose.
