Ok, I confess: I'm not a fan of Valentine's Day. Pretty pathetic, I know, for a married man with six daughters to admit.
I just never liked the idea of being compelled to tell my sweetheart (or my little girls) that I love her.
I don't want to be forced to buy jewelry or flowers. I don't want the element of surprise taken from my "I Love Yous".
Also, truth be told, I'm in the candy business. And Valentine's Day is, bar none, the biggest headache of all the holidays.
That's because in our business on Valentine's Day it is dominated by male customers and we are, frankly, sheep and pretty dumb ones at that.
