Did you know that men who kiss their wives each morning live 5 years longer than those who don’t? After I told Mr. Craft Nest that he puckered up and told me that if he kissed me in the morning AND night that maybe he would live 10 years longer. I like that plan!
I learned that little fact from Celebrating Love, a book released by 1-800-flowers founder Jim McCann. Just in time for Valentine’s Day, I was given the opportunity to review this book (and to give one away to a lucky reader). The book is an easy read with fun quotes, interesting love facts, beautiful illustrations and cute love stories. This might be cheesy but Mr. Crafty Nest and I are going to read a few pages from Celebrating Love each night as a way to reconnect after a busy day.
