With Valentines Day just around the corner.. thought i would chime in on it.
Valentines day doesnt have to be hard. Here is a simple list of things courtesty of Gweneth Paltrow's website, Goop, you can do to remind that special someone that you are thinking of them... and they are loved.
AM or before they wake up:
Surprise them by pre-loading a playlist onto their Ipod (or getting a mix onto whatever device they use to listen to music) with whatever songs are significant to you two. You’ll be on their mind throughout their morning run, commute, etc.
8 AM or before they rise : While breakfast in bed on a Saturday is lovely, breakfast in bed on a weekday is completely unexpected, and truly special. We’ve listed some super-simple recipes for even the most culinarily-challenged that can be prepared in five minutes or less to bring some unexpected romance to an otherwise normal day.
Omlets or egg sandwiches are super easy and quick to make. Or give them a bag of cookies and milk and send them on their way!
Around 11 am : set an alarm on their phone to go off at this time that tells them to check their 1. pant pocket 2. wallet pocket 3. purse pocket, or whatever place you think they would not have naturally checked by now. In this pocket, you have placed either a love note, tickets to a play/movie/event that evening, a gift card to their favorite store, or an address and time of where and when they should meet you for a surprise evening activity of your choice.
8 pm "cook" an Easy Dinner : Although Valentine's day is on a Tuesday, it doesnt have to be so hard. Go to your favorite restaurant and order take out. Put it on some nice plates, light some candles and you're done! If you want to cook, do something easy- Remember today is about both of you!
After dinner: Give a litte massage, or a foot rub. and if you must...give it a little sexy...
Romantically...
or Sexy...
Valentines Day doesnt have to be hard. Just thoughful!
Hope you have a good weekend!
