No one knows Valentine's Day like the Real Housewives of Orange County. How do they celebrate the big V? Holidash asked RHOC star Vicki Gunvalson about her best -- and worst -- Valentine's memories.

What is your favorite Valentine's Day memory?

A few years ago, I woke up to Donn coming in our bedroom with breakfast in bed. Since he doesn't cook, it was a complete surprise. After I started drinking my coffee, he then gave me a beautiful diamond heart necklace and put it in my neck. I was really surprised.

What is your worst Valentine's Day memory?

I don't have any. They are all fabulous!

What's the best gift you ever gave or received from a Valentine?
The best gift I've ever received is my diamond necklace on Valentine's day 2007.

How do you plan on celebrating Valentine's Day this year?
We usually go out to dinner, or I make lobster and filets at home and we have a nice dinner alone.

Do you have any Valentine's Day traditions?
If we don't exchange presents, we always give each other a mushy card.

What's your ideal Valentine's Day?
Just being with Donn and even Mike and Briana too! There's nothing better than being with my family. There's no greater gift in life than family.
