Valentine's Day Tips
Show your sweetheart how much you care this Valentine’s Day. Celebrate
tomorrow by going out on a date, or stay at home with a bottle of wine and
some chocolates. No matter what you do, use these tips to assure that your
Valentine’s Day goes off without a hitch.
Romantic Date Ideas
Go ice-skating. Hold hands and keep each other warm while also working
off those Valentine’s Day chocolates.
Make pottery. Remember the movie
Ghost? Visit a paint-your-own pottery store and make your honey a plate
or mug created especially for them.
Cook dinner together. Nothing says
romance like a candlelight dinner, especially when you spend time cooking
it together.
Wine and Chocolate Pairings
White chocolate. A good sherry will bring out the creaminess
of the chocolate. Orange Muscat will accentuate the fruity undertones. Try
Pedro Romero or Quady Winery’s 2002 Orange Muscat.
Dark chocolate. The
roasted, robust flavors of a cabernet or zinfandel accentuate the richness
of the chocolate. Try Whitehall Lane’s Cabernet or Hook and Ladder
Zinfandel.
Milk chocolate. A light pinot noir pairs well with a chocolate
bar, while Riesling works with a chocolate mousse or cheesecake. Try
Chateau Ste. Michelle’s
Eroica Riesling 2004.
Last Minute Gift Ideas
Send roses to work. Both women and men can enjoy the beauty
and fragrance of fresh roses.
Make a coupon book. Show your sweetheart that
you really care by creating homemade coupons. Be creative! For example, “Good
for a half-hour foot massage”. P.S. There are love coupon books at
Borders!
Create a romantic CD. Include “your” song, and others
that remind you of each other. Add some candles and wine, and your
valentine will be swept off their feet, only after the foot massage, of course.
Happy Valentine’s Day from Boscobel!
