Pleaaaaase, do not send me a vinegar Valentine. Those in the video were horrid. OMG! I just had a thought… Caroline Bingley laboring over her escritoire as she composed her vinegar valentines. She probably wore her pen down to a nub… [LOL!] … forgetting to mend it. Dang, she would be vicious. Wonder how many she would send? Thanks for sharing this with us.
Hilarious!
Can she talk any faster? Hard to believe that people actually wasted money on sending cards to people that they didn’t like. Cards today are not cheap so I only buy for those I care about. ($5.99 for some cards) Thanks for sharing.
