Chapter 1: What outfit ideas do Kim and Grandma Gail suggest for Valentine's Day?

0.031 - 34.499 Kim

Welcome back to Excuse My Grandma. It's Kim and my co-host, Grandma Gail. You guys have been loving us outside of the studio a little bit more. We did one walking and talking on the lake. We did one in the hair salon. Today we're going to do what we do best, which is pick out outfits in the closet and style each other.

0

34.539 - 46.216 Kim

And so if you are watching, which you should be on YouTube, or seeing our clips on social media, or watching on Spotify, or you're just listening, we are going to talk all about Valentine's Day today.

0

46.256 - 50.862 Grandma Gail

And what we're wearing and where we're going. Yes, all the things.

0

50.962 - 55.289 Kim

So we're in Grandma's closet first. Correct. And we're going to pick out your outfit.

0

55.669 - 72.534 Grandma Gail

What are you doing with Poppy? Well, we're going to a very nice event at our country club. And they're going to have a little bit of entertainment because, you know, the people who are going to this thing by 10 o'clock, their Valentine's Day evening is over. So I think everything is going to be compressed into two hours.

73.215 - 88.052 Grandma Gail

I don't think we're going to have dancing, but maybe they even have some music. Oh, this is a big thing. Oh, yeah. It's a nice night on Valentine's Day there. And they have all the food is going to be shaped in hearts. You know, they're going to carry it, I'm sure, to the extreme.

88.332 - 92.437 Kim

So how do you feel about being with a big group on Valentine's Day versus a one-on-one situation?

92.457 - 102.268 Grandma Gail

I think it's fine. You know what? We're together all the time. So it's festive. And we don't need alone time. We spend a lot of alone time together.

102.428 - 105.351 Kim

Also, it's your 63rd Valentine's Day.

Chapter 2: What are the pros and cons of celebrating Valentine's Day in a group versus one-on-one?

217.638 - 238.914 Grandma Gail

I have to wear the red one. I think so. I don't have anything else in red. But I thought the black would be all right. It's got sort of pink and green. No. All right, the red for Valentine's Day? Okay. Should we accessorize it? Yeah, well, I'm just going to wear black shoes and a black bag. I'm not going to do very much with it, Kim. Okay, you're going to wear that.

0

239.034 - 241.578 Grandma Gail

So that's my choice, with black shoes and a little black bag.

0

242.499 - 243.701 Kim

Which black shoes do you think?

0

244.783 - 248.468 Grandma Gail

Whatever is low-heeled, that's for sure.

0

248.819 - 261.461 Kim

Grandma and I, even though we're both short, you guys know, we both like only wearing really short kitten heels. I hate a high heel. This is just a plain little simple black silk pump. Yeah.

261.481 - 265.208 Grandma Gail

And I'll wear a black little bag. It's just fine. You know, I'd have to be comfortable.

265.188 - 283.872 Kim

Every time Valentine's Day rolls around, I remember some of your old rules we did for Valentine's Day. Right. So our rule number 16 was... That's a long time ago, Kim. A long time ago. If you weren't wowed last night on Valentine's Day, you have 364 days to go find a new Valentine. Do we stick by that?

283.852 - 300.592 Grandma Gail

Yeah, yeah. But you know what? It's one day, though. It's one day. And I think the wow factor is just having a good time together and having a nice drink and having a lovely dinner. And if you exchange gifts, don't go crazy. Just have something, you know, that both of you know they're going to like.

300.812 - 305.758 Kim

But I also feel like they should definitely put effort in because it's a special night. Oh, yeah.

Chapter 3: What are Grandma's rules for Valentine's Day expectations?

619.955 - 620.898 Grandma Gail

Yeah, like some funky red earrings.

0

621.24 - 626.299 Kim

Do you think it's more important to feel comfortable or sexy on a date?

0

627.072 - 634.46 Grandma Gail

It depends where you're going. If you're going to a casual little restaurant, this is a bit much. Then you can put on just a pair of black pants and a red sweater.

0

634.62 - 646.492 Kim

I mean, this is pretty comfortable, but I'm like, could I go even more uncomfortable? Okay. And here's the other thing. I have not thought of a gift yet. And I feel like I should give Zach a little gift. Okay.

0

646.952 - 658.726 Grandma Gail

So he's coming back to New York. Is there something that you would like to get him for when he returns because he's coming back in cold weather. He's not used to it. Maybe you need to get him a hat.

659.366 - 667.635 Kim

I gave him a scarf for Hanukkah, or maybe it was Valentine's last year, and he did not use it, but he's been in L.A. He's been in L.A.

667.716 - 682.353 Grandma Gail

Now he's coming back to the cold world. Yeah, but it's too similar to that gift. Well, then I don't know what. He likes gadgets, so you might have to look and see. Yeah, but he knows more about the gadgets than me. All right, then you have a problem, Kim. Don't get him a chocolate heart.

682.573 - 688.042 Kim

No, that's so boring. Like, would you have any tips for people of how to think of Valentine's Day gifts?

689.745 - 704.034 Grandma Gail

No, I just think you should go along with what their hobbies are. And if he likes a particular thing, doesn't he like to play golf? Isn't he beginning to learn golf? He's learning, yeah. So get him a great, like, golf shirt or a... Maybe.

Chapter 4: What gift ideas does Grandma suggest for Valentine's Day?

712.687 - 722.642 Kim

Yes. Well, of course you get a card. So write a nice card. Write a big – get a big card. Yeah. And get him some golf balls. I don't know if I'm thrilled about that. I'll keep thinking.

0

722.662 - 723.082 Grandma Gail

You'll figure it out.

0

723.102 - 732.797 Kim

I'll let you guys know. Okay. A lot of people were also writing in and asking like what they should do with someone who they've only been dating for like two or three months. Yeah.

0

734.077 - 754.521 Grandma Gail

They don't have to do anything. But if a gentleman asks them out for Valentine's Day, then just go and have a nice dinner. You don't have to buy anybody a gift. Get them a funny card. Or a mug. Coffee mugs are always funny. You have loads of signs on it. And just buy something that would be good for that person. What if you're in a situationship?

0

754.541 - 760.088 Kim

Do you remember what that is? The next step up? No, it's like you're not exclusive yet.

760.108 - 761.67 Grandma Gail

Oh, I wouldn't get them a thing.

761.65 - 763.212 Kim

Don't go out on Valentine's Day.

763.252 - 773.026 Grandma Gail

You can go out on Valentine's Day. Why can't you go out with him? But don't make it more than just a nice evening together. Should you send him or her a text saying, happy Valentine's Day?

773.046 - 783.58 Kim

Not if he hasn't asked you out. If you're not going out together that day, don't text happy Valentine's. I agree. It's too much when it's like not that emotional yet.
