The deadline for our weekly photo contest is 5 p.m. Monday.
Cupid has come and gone, but he has likely left behind proof of his visit. If you haven't entered our Valentine's Day photo contest yet, it's not too late. The deadline to upload photos in the contest is 5 p.m. Monday, Feb. 18. Want to show us what you received or gave for Valentine's Day? Have some cute couple photos or pictures of the kids?

(Please make sure to follow the above link to enter the contest; while you are welcome to upload pictures here, this is not the contest page and therefore your photos won't count as an official entry.) The winner gets a $25 gift card to a local business. Good luck…

Anyone needing a reminder that today is Valentine’s Day should drive on Route 30 in Westborough. At 50 East Main St., a large paper heart with a green arrow underneath points motorists to the Plant Bazaar Florist. “We’ve had a lot of good walk-ins today,” employee Sarah Page said while preparing an arrangement. “Usually a handful of last-minute guys at 6 p.m. come in.

Valentine’s Day is the theme of the latest weekly wine tasting at Julio’s, at 140 Turnpike Road, from 7 to 8 p.m. Thursday. Lerner said he will present about 10 wines, “a cross section” of the options. “These events that we do are great ways for people to taste things that they might not normally do because they have to pay for an entire bottle.,” he said. “And the price range we usually taste from is anywhere from $7 up to $150 a bottle.” Besides Je T’Aime, Lerner recommends for Valentine’s Day a Rosa Regale Brachetto, “…
