So Pinterest has become quite an addiction in our household. My wife loves to get new ideas for various crafts and projects from Pinterest. This year she stumbled upon an idea for Valentine’s Day gifts called 24 Hours of Love. The concept is that you give your Valentine a gift every hour (at :14 past the hour, of course) throughout the day. They don’t need to be big gifts and really the idea is to create your own gifts because they mean more that way. I am the lucky recipient of these gifts so as she gives them to me I will be posting them here. I unfortunately do not have enough time nor am I crafty enough to make 24 different gifts this year but I am making one really cool one (I think). That is documented on another page.

My wife knows I love lights and switches and she really outdid herself with this awesome antique’d bulb box. I think there is a theme here involving lights…

This Jar of Stars glows nicely at night and projects little points of light around the room thanks to a tap light secured under the lid. Brilliant!

Somehow my wife found a purple (405nm) laser! It is really cool – like a black light laser. The plane card has a double meaning – don’t point the laser at planes!

So I love Sriracha hot sauce. I even took a quiz and found out my obsession falls under the “Rage Beast” designation. This sauce goes by various names such as “Rooster Sauce” or “Cock Sauce.” I always called it “Hot Cock Sauce”…
