Love Love || Valentine's Day Ideas

Telling the one you love on Valentine’s Day is easy to do and always an intentional way of loving them. There are so many easy ideas that will make this day better than last year. If you were single last year, even better, but if you’re new to the mushy love stuff, listen up. There’s nothing like a great night with the one you love without stressing over dinner reservations. Bring the love and quality time together by making a great dinner at home. There’s nothing more exciting than opening a bottle of wine to create a simple dinner filling your home with great aromas.

Dinner Ideas

The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. I’m sure you’ve been told. Just make sure you have a recipe handy for the novice’s on cooking. A common craving for most men is pizza but not any round shape creation– instead a heart-shaped pizza made for two. Grab your keys and make a quick trip to your local store for some easy items. Add or remove toppings that fit your style. (You may want to check your pantry for items on hand – if anything like my husband, many of these are already on reserve)
