How to Become a Prisoner of Love

Valentine's Day Dessert: Marble Cheesecake with Frederick's of Hollywood Edible Red Sauce. Ew.

Still looking for a date to take you to dinner this Valentine's Day? We are here to advise you against this move. Restaurants offering a "special" Valentine's Day menu always make us a little nervous. The dishes usually have a high proportion of gooey sauces that are more apt to be from Frederick's of Hollywood than made from edible ingredients.

We say stay home this Valentine's Day and write a love letter. Need a love letter recipient? We have the answer for you. On HotPrisonPals.com you can correspond with your very own prisoner. The site's tag line is "We bring you pen pals looking for love -- that just happen to be incarcerated."

The idea for www.hotprisonpals.com came from New York pop artist Sam Wagner, who began writing to a friend in jail several years ago. The prisoner then asked Wagner to write to his cellmate who had stopped receiving letters from his family.

Maybe when your prisoner is released you can prepare that special Valentine's Day feast, sans red sauce.
