Flowers and Food for the 14th of February!

By Aisha A Rahman

The 14th of February is just around the corner and all the love birds out there are desperately in search of ideas of how to make this day special for their loved one. The 14th of February is a day where love is celebrated worldwide. Everyone has different ways of expressing their love to their significant other but some of us really can't think of anything different because we've simply done it all, or everything else is too common. But that really doesn't mean that there is absolutely nothing to do or to give.

Its tradition to give away sentimental greeting cards on this day, along with Valentine's Day flowers and a good meal at a restaurant. If you can't think of anything else to do, it's probably best to stick to tradition and settle for the traditional Valentine's Day roses, a romantic dinner at a restaurant, a box of chocolates and champagne.

Make your reservations for the dinner way in advance because most of the good restaurants are booked for the day for special dinners for all the couples out there. Get reservations for dinner. If you don't get dinner reservations, make it lunch instead. Or better yet, take out an entire day to spend with your loved one, showering them with your affection and appreciation.

Next comes the Valentine's Day flowers. Red roses; there is no other kind of flower that spells love out better than red roses do! Red roses are given out on Valentines Day and most florists claim that Valentine's Day is the time when roses are demanded the most by people. In fact, florists claim that they record some of their highest sales on Valentine's Day. If you want to shop for Valentine's Day roses online, that is possible too. You can have the Valentine's Day roses delivered as a surprise to your loved one at their work place, at home, or anywhere where they might not be expecting the flowers from you.

A box of chocolates and a bottle of champagne to accompany the flowers are an additional treat. Surprise tour valentine with these during the day, and treat them to an amazing, romantic dinner in a good restaurant. If you're good enough, you can probably prepare dinner (something special of course!) yourself and treat your valentine to that. If you're the kind of person who is usually busy at work and cannot take out time for your loved one, this would probably be one of the most meaningful gestures which I'm sure he/she is bound to appreciate.

Another thing you could do on Valentine's Day is probably go watch a movie, but most theaters will probably be house full and out of tickets if you wait last-minute. This would call for a movie at home instead. Make sure it's something that the both of you can watch and enjoy together, while relaxing in the company of one another
