    • 2012, Nicole Etolen, Celebrate Single Girls Night on Valentine’s Day with Bormioli Rocco, Pretty Opinionated:
      there is nothing in the rule book stating that you must celebrate only romantic love. Why not celebrate the love you have for yourself and your closest friends by having a “single girls night” at home? While all the couples out there are waiting for their turn in a jam-packed restaurant, you and your friends can enjoy a fun, sismantic (okay, I made that up, how come guys have bromances, but we don’t have a term for our bond as women?) night in the comfort of your own dining room.
