A one eyed you? I don’t know if he’ll go for the pirate look. The peg leg and the parrot are non-starters.

Nah, it’s the hook hand that might send him running.
Shiver me timbers!

Regardless, its a thoughtful gift. I assume it will be appropriately wrapped. I hope he appreciates it.

I wonder how long it’ll be until someone accuses this of being a Photo-Shopped fake made up for Valentines Day just to sell more MILK chocolate?

So yer sayin’ beef heart ain’t an appropriate Valentine gift?

I was shopping yesterday for round steak and right next to it was a tray of beef hearts. Whole.
I do NOT want one for Valentine’s Day.
