I love conversation hearts. I love them. They are tasty and sugary and sweet. And they always have the sweetest messages. Unless you've looked at them in the last few years. "Be Mine" and "My Girl" are still there but so is "Email Me" and "Text Me." I guess all good things must change with the times.
I guess the one thing I really found unique about conversation hearts are that they seemed to be timeless. They were a sweet treat you waited for once a year. And for legions of small school children, they were something you could eat, so no one took the messages too seriously, even if you wanted a certain someone to.
They are still nostalgic for me, but a little less so with the new messages.
In any event, I would much rather get a conversation heart from my husband than an email or text message. Even if that conversation heart has a 21st century message.
