Signature Valentine Celebration Ideas

Hot Chocolate Date with Personalized Mug

Ooh it's Valentines again! I will share some simple ideas that you can easily do for your Valentine. These ideas are simple, inexpensive and heart-warming. The following 3 ideas are from Better Home and Garden.
The hot chocolate and personalized mug above is a perfect way to turn a valentine gift into an intimate date. In each mug place a packet of Gourmet Hot Chocolate and Irish Cream Liquor packaged in beautiful tissue paper. Write a personal heartfelt message and or drawing on your respective mugs and exchange. This can be an after dinner treat for you both to enjoy.

Fortune Cookies with Dipping Chocolate
Fortune cookies with a chocolate dipping sauce is also a tasty idea after dinner. Line a Chinese takeout box with tissue paper and add store bought fortune cookies. Wrap the dipping sauce with patterned paper and ribbon and tuck a heart in the ribbon to complete the look. This is a fun and sweet treat to share as dessert with your Valentine. Have fun reading your fortune together!

Brownie Trifles
 Hmm...what a yummy dessert! To make this decadent dessert is simple and easy. Layer brownies, whip cream and raspberries to make this scrumptious treat!

Valentine Candy
The above idea is from Martha Stewart online. For a modern twist to Valentine candy, line a clear, round container with heart shape cookie cutters and fill the cookie cutters with multicolored candy for a unique presentation. This is a nice treat for the Valentine who loves candy.

Happy Valentines Day!
