I have been collecting traditional recipes, particularly ones that relate to the chief festivals of the ritual year. This was all I have found so far that relates to Valentine's Day. Why are cinnamon, ginger and mace associated with a celebration of love?
Other than a curiosity about the anthropological and ethnographical impact of the Feast of St Valentine, the day has had no significance for myself. This has not always been the case. Occasionally I wonder whether I should do something about the detached nature of my life, but then I think: why start all that up again.
