home decorating ideas for anniversary celebration
afternoon. here's our snowfall barry: from a night out on the town, to flowers and jewelry... americans are treating their loved ones this valentine's day. 22news reporter alessandra martinez visited one popular hampshire
county restaurant that's preparing for the big night. alessandra: it's expected that more than half of all americans are celebrating tonight with gifts, flowers, and delicious food. americans are spending at record
rates this valentine's day. consumers are expected to spend more than 4 billion dollars on jewelry, and another 2 billion on flowers. according to the national retail federation, americans this year will be spending 18-billion
dollars on their valentines. to put that in perspective for you, everyone celebrating valentine's day is expected to spend an average of $136. then, of course, there's the food.
nearly 4 in 10 of those celebrating will be wining and dining those they love tonight. most restaurants across western massachusetts were forced to close, and lost a day during thursday's storm. even though valentine's day
falls on a weekday this year, johnny's tavern in amherst anticipates a full house tonight. patrick siana: we're probably going to expect as much business tonight as if it was on a saturday. the reservations
started coming in last week, and actually i had to close tonight's reservations last friday. back in the kitchen, it's all hands on deck with 6 chefs preparing, cooking, and serving... and not just for tonight.
bryan graham: days leading up, and after valentine's day, you still see an increase in businesses just because people don't always come out on valentine's day. some people have to work like myself and my wife.
if you plan on treating someone special later in the week, make those reservations now before the best times are all booked up. you'll be lucky to get a reservation now if you haven't made one, but many restaurants accept walk-ins.
