Happy Valentine's Day!

 
Happy Valentines Day
 

Home is where the heart is. So why go anywhere else for Valentine’s Day? While others scramble for dinner reservations and book expensive getaways, here are some ideas for you and your special someone to enjoy a romantic night in the comfort of your own home.

Cook A Romantic Dinner

Transport you and your loved one to Spain, Morocco, Italy, and beyond with the power of food. Take a private cooking class in the comfort of your own kitchen! The Chef and The Dish classes are priced for two people, making it a perfect purchase for date night. Cooking alongside you and your Valentine a professional chef will be in real-time on video chat straight from your smartphone, tablet, or smart tv.

Create A Spa Experience at Home

Make Valentine’s Day the ultimate spa day, in the comfort of your own home. Put together a Spa Basket packed with spa-themed items. Set up a massage table in your bathroom or create a massage station on the floor in your living room or bedroom. Take turns giving one another a massage from head to toe using items from the basket you created. Top off in full relax mode, open up a bottle of your favorite wine or make a dessert tray with sweets and pastries the two of you enjoy.

Cuddle Up and Watch A Movie

Sure, a vacation out of town and dinner dates in a fancy restaurant have their allure, but nothing beats staying in and cuddling with your special someone. Lifehackmade a list of the 23 most romantic flicks for Valentine’s Day —and some of their choices may surprise you! Or, for something more personal, you could snuggle and watch home movies or look through old photo albums.

Surprise Your Partner with a Backyard Picnic

There’s something romantic about a picnic for two. If you live in a mild climate, create a backyard picnic and stargaze with your sweetheart. Set up a tent in the backyard, lay out a quilt or blanket, and feast on a variety of portable foods. Have a fire in the bbq, roast some marshmallows, and layout under the stars! If the weather outside is frightful, you can host a picnic indoors by candlelight or by the fireplace. Set the mood by dimming the lights and lighting some candles, lay out a blanket and pillows to make it cozier.

Play games

Being playful and having fun isn’t just for children. Research shows that adults benefit from games too. They’re a source of relaxation, and they build your problem-solving skills, which can help strengthen your relationship. On Valentine’s Day, dust off your favorite board games, grab a deck of cards or play a round of Truth or Dare with your partner.

Take a Trip Around the World —Without Leaving Home

Perhaps you’ve been dreaming about a romantic wine tour in Italy or a relaxing trip to a far-away beach. Bring those adventures right to your doorstep by organizing a themed date night at home. Likewise, if you’re longing for summer weather and sandy beaches, you can bring some vacation rituals into your home.

Create a Scavenger Hunt Around the House
