Spending Valentine’s at home this year, not going out to a
fancy dinner?
Don’t worry; we have some great ideas to transform your
apartment and get you ready for Valentine’s Day.
Do It Your Self Decorations
Whether you’re throwing a special dinner for two, or a get
together with your single pals, a splash of colour is sure to set the mood in
your apartment. Use lots of reds, and pinks to add colour around your
apartment. Maybe make some heart shaped garland out of construction paper and
hang around windows. Spread some rose petals over the table for color, and
place a heart shaped chocolate on each place setting. Finally, for a
centerpiece, take a small clear glass vase and place fresh or fabric flowers into
the vase. Don’t add water to the vase,
instead visit your local bulk food store and buy cinnamon heart candy, or any
valentine’s candy of your choice, and use these to fill the vase.
Quick Dinner Ideas
Since this year Valentine’s Day falls during the week, a dinner
menu should be easy to prepare. Plan a menu in advance, and shop one or two days
before for ingredients. If you’re serving a meat/chicken/fish dish, marinate it
the night before and leave in the fridge, this way after work you just have to
pop your dish in the oven. Not sure what
to serve, we have a quick and easy suggestion:
With thin slices of strawberries, some
crispy Prosciutto, and Balsamic Vinaigrette.
served with garlic mashed
potatoes and steamed vegetables.
The Perfect Dessert
Cupcakes are the perfect dessert for Valentine’s, especially
if they’re chocolate or red velvet. You can personalize cupcakes with cute
Valentine candy, or just frost them. Cupcakes
are great; you can make them the night before and store them in the fridge,
just take them out during dinner and serve with coffee.
