Roses are Red, Violets are Purple, Pancakes are Better, If You use Maple Syrple

I guess you could say I'm not a cherub and frou frou sort of girl (although there is that one place in my heart, lol). I am more of a "Blondie and Dagwood", or "Lucy and Desi" kind of girl. I go for the one-liners, the pratfalls, the hold-your-sides-from-laughing-so-hard kind of Valentines. Now, I will confess that anything innocent and cutesy also takes my fancy. Then again, Lucy was always involved in innocent destruction and Blondie takes cutesy to a level heretofore unknown to man. Sex may sell (as the advertisers say), but I prefer a time when your mortality wasn't based on your morality (if you get my drift). I've really wandered far afield, when all I really wanted to say was:

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY

Every purchase from Cottage Violets between now and January 31st will include a free Valentine (and they are CUTE).

Make 'em laugh

Make 'em laugh

Don't you know everyone wants to laugh?(Ha ha!)

My dad said "Be an actor, my son

But be a comical one

They'll be standing in lines

For those old honky tonk monkeyshines"

Now you could study Shakespeare and be quite elite

And you can charm the critics and have nothin' to eat

Just slip on a banana peel The world's at your feet

Make 'em laugh

Make 'em laugh

Make 'em laugh

Make 'em...Make 'em laugh

Don't you know everyone wants to laugh

My grandpa said go out and tell 'em a joke

But give it plenty of hoke

Make 'em roar Make 'em scream

Take a fall Butt a wall Split a seam

You start off by pretending

You're a dancer with grace

You wiggle 'till they're Giggling all over the place

And then you get a great big custard pie in the face

Make 'em laugh

Make 'em laugh

Make 'em laugh

Make 'em laugh

Make 'em laugh

Don't you know... all the...wants..?

My dad...They'll be standing in lines

For those old honky tonk monkeyshines

Make 'em laugh

Make 'em laugh

Don't you know everyone wants to laugh?

Make 'em laugh Make 'em laugh Make 'em laugh!
