Between the Champagne, prix fixe dinner and a dozen roses, the costs of a romantic night out for Valentine's Day can quickly add up and might end up being more than you can afford in these tough economic times. This year if money is tight, consider treating your sweetheart to a romantic evening in your own home. This DIY alternative is not only more intimate and less expensive; it also allows you to be more creative and thoughtful in showing your appreciation for your significant other.
Here are a couple ideas for celebrating Valentine's Day in your own home:
- If you have a fireplace, light it up! If you don't, this is the perfect occasion to use the soy candle set your sister got you for Christmas.
- If you're not an experienced chef, don't worry-there are plenty of simple recipes for beginners that will still look impressive arranged on your best dinnerware. Many Italian dishes like pizza or spaghetti are cost-effective and fun to make. If you are looking for a less traditional alternative, have breakfast in bed or a picnic on your living room floor.
- Champagne is typically seen as an expensive drink, but this doesn't have to be the case. Skip the French vintage and opt for a nice Spanish cava or Italian prosecco, both of which offer many quality selections under $25.
- This Valentine's Day, don't just think pink-think green! What better way to show your sweetheart you care than by showing your love for the planet you inhabit? Make your meal from organic ingredients, buy a recycled card and buy your flowers from a local farmer.
This year for Valentine's Day, don't stress over trying to get a reservation at an expensive steakhouse. Instead, celebrate your love in the most romantic and intimate setting possible-your own home.
Smile today and don't forget! Count Your Blessings!
