Forget the flowers. How about a love letter?

February 07, 2013

Valentine's Day can be an interesting time of year. Some people look forward to it, counting down the days as they plan and prepare. Others shudder with fear at the thought of February 14^th as expectations rise.

For those with a significant other going out to a fancy restaurant is par for the course. Maybe even the same restaurant as last year. This Valentine’s day, Do something out of the ordinary- make it a memorable night.

Be creative- Start scouring sites like Groupon.com and Zozi.com for inspiration. Why do what’s been done when you can look like a superstar by being creative? Cook dinner, take a cooking class or grab take out and go to Color Me Mine.

Is her favorite movie Breakfast club? Make breakfast for dinner and spend some time watching her favorite flick. Does he love baseball? Make him his very own baseball card.

Visit a museum, botanical gardens, or comedy club. Have you ever been to a whisky tasting? Find something the two of you are both interested in ( or gentlemen, something that your lady will just love) and plan your Valentine's celebration around that instead of what you're "supposed" to do.

Go one step further, if you dare. Forget the flowers. Why don’t you surprise your honey with a beautiful love letter? Or something else that will last?

No matter what you do remember that the idea is to spend time with someone you love (or at least like). Be thoughtful, and it will be a great day!

XOXO,
