As Every Drug Store We've Stepped Foot In For The Past Month Has Reminded Us

It is Valentine's Day tomorrow! Although it is a lame Hallmark holiday seemingly designed to make single people feel worthless, it can also be an opportunity to give some love to people/places/things that don't usually get such public displays of attention.

So, with that in mind: *rumages through pockets for a crude cut-out of a heart on red construction paper with glitter and lace glued on it* Philly, will you be our valentine? Here are all the things we love about you:

• The first bite of Lorenzo's pizza at 2:07am on a Friday night.
• The blackened green beans at Grace Tavern
• Drinking on the sly at Liberty Lands
• Karaoke at Ray's Happy Birthday Bar
  
• Hearing a Prince song at 700 club when you are out dancing with your sister
• The first swig of a Kenzinger Beer at your friend's barbecue
• Capogiro's sea salt and dark chocolate gelato
• Glenn "Hurricane" Schwartz's bow tie
• Leafing through the new issue of the Philadelphia Weekly
• Snacking on freshly made pretzels at midnight
  
• Figuring out which place to go to for brunch (The Abbaye is our fave, but Honey's is a close second)
• Sarcone's rolls
• The yummy yuppie Tex-Mex at Mad Mex
  
• Scopin' out hot dudes in Rittenhouse Square Park
  
• Pierogy Wednesdays at Tattooed Mom's
  
• Playing quizzo somewhere divey
• Reading The Metro on your way to work, looking up your horoscope and ignoring the Sports section
  
• Hearing a song from the Singles soundtrack playing at McGlinchys
• Running into your old roommate at Johnny Brenda's
• Sharing a margarita pitcher at Cantina
• Rocktits! spinning records at the POPE
• Casually perusing the "I Love You/ I Hate You"s in The Citypaper
  
• Having your apartment lovingly packed up by those Mambo Movers
• Taking sloppy photos in The Barbary's photobooth then posting them up on your fridge the next day
  
• All the rad artists, musicians, and writers that give this city its soul
