Lora fired up the bat signal yesterday, in search of Valentine's ideas for that special someone. Only I was to busy rambling to answer the call. I shall remedy that today.
1. I love Cherie's suggestion of kidnapping them and forcing them to have fun.
2. Making a coupon booklet - a tried and true cheap way to say "I love you" on Valentine's day. I think my FIL might have made fun of me for over using this idea yesterday...not sure though.
3. A homemade candle lit dinner. (Lame? Maybe for your s/o. Mine loves food.)
4. A heart rate monitor. Nothing says "I <3 you" like a heart rate monitor. Perfect for that exercise/calorie counting junkie wife of yours. (This will probably be the one day Jay doesn't read my blog.)
5. (For her) Flowers. Not roses, but her favorite flower. Skip this option if you have to ask what her favorite flower is.
6. A massage - they're wonderful, take a lot of effort on the part of the giver, and now days everyone is stressed enough to need them! Just be sure to light candles so its at least a little romantic.
7. A love note. Not a card with your name signed at the bottom. But an 8 1/2 X 11 piece of paper filled with your favorite memories together, reasons you love your s/o, and general happy thoughts about them.
8. A 6 pack of beer. (Once again totally not lame at my house. I took Jay a 6 pack to the farmhouse last night and you would have thought a Playboy bunny had just stopped by for a visit.)
Which brings me to...
9. A new outfit. For you to wear. For him to enjoy.
10. A kiss (or ten) for every Valentine's day you've spent together.
And if all else fails, grab a card and write "I love you - most - est - final" at the bottom.
What other ideas am I forgetting?
Happy Friday!!!
Great ideas! Valentines day has never really been a big thing for us but I do like to do something special for him. I'm sure he'd love the 6 pack too.
ReplyDeleteThose are all great ideas. kind of corny but I always give my hubby a pair of heart boxers for Valentines. I also make sure to cook his favorite dinner with a yummy dessert/cake.
ReplyDeleteThese are all great ideas. Hubs and I don't do to much for Valentines any more. We just get each other a card. Sad, I know we are lame! Oh and 60 is cold in Feb is you are going to be outside for 3hrs. HELP!!!
ReplyDeleteYou are so funny!!
ReplyDeleteYou forgot just Dinner and Sex - that's all they really need right?
:D
fun ideas! i love the heart rate monitor one!
ReplyDeleteThese are great ideas! And, yes, my husband would LOVE the beer as a gift. He got Mr. Beer (beer making kit) for Christmas and his eyes almost popped out of his skull he was so happy lol.
ReplyDeleteMy husband's birthday is on Valentine's Day (oh, lucky me lol) so I will have to do AT LEAST 2 of these options :).
Those are all great ideas! The one about the flowers made me laugh...my husband would probably have to ask me which one is my favorite and you're right...he might as well not bother at that point!
