Valentine Date Night Ideas
Going out to dinner isn’t the same anymore. Thanks, COVID! Do you risk going out where there will be groups of people? Should you wear your mask outside while waiting to be seated? The whole point is you want some alone time with your date where you don’t have to be ridden with anxiety or deal with the awkwardness of masks. You’ve been cooped up at home for months and Valentine’s Day is supposed to be a special day to connect with your honey. It’s one of those times where you’re like…“I’ve got this!” You’re going to show your special someone that staying in is far better than dealing with crowds and the hefty bill at a fancy restaurant. Now that you’ve decided to stay in for the night, it’s time to plan out a night to remember! Throw basic out the window and let Kelapo help guide you setting the ambiance, providing you with an appetizing recipe idea and activities to make Valentine’s Day 2021 an unforgettable experience.
Setting the Ambiance
Regardless of if you live in mansion or one bedroom apartment, impress your significant other by picking an area or two of your home and transforming into a romantic scene. Be direct and make it clear that it’s time to disconnect from any mobile devices and cover the TV. Enhance the mood with rose pedals, dim hangable lights, candles, anything to assure your sweetheart is feeling the vibe, and most importantly the menu and fun activities!
