Conversation hearts were cute in the 3rd grade when they were about the only way you could tell crush how you felt without being too awkward. But now, we're adults and adults don't give other adults chalk-flavored candies.

Dipping a cherry in chocolate does not a gift make. Skip the lame treat that only a grandma would love and spring for some chocolate-covered strawberries instead.
