HEAT UP VALENTINE'S DAY
Tonight’s the night for a date with your sweetie. Here’s how to make staying in on V-day more special than going out.

1. Turn your living room into a cozy retreat
Avoid the stress of making a restaurant reservation and skip the crowds by switching things up this year with a date night at home. Make your fireplace the star of the show and stock up your favorite firelogs from Duraflame. Save some $$ by using a
printable coupon.
2. Bust out a nostalgic beverage
Did you have pints of beer at a dive bar during your first date? Go on a particularly romantic picnic with a bottle of wine on a recent vacation? Valentine’s Day is the perfect opportunity to relive a happy memory by sharing a drink with the one you love. Cheers to you both!
3. Throw on some tunes
Remember the joy of making a mix CD for your sweetie? Make ‘em one in digital form! Before Valentine’s Day, spend some time sifting through your collection to build a special playlist that’ll rekindle romantic memories of all the times you’ve shared. Need some inspiration? Check out our flamin’-hot

4. Make a dessert together
Nothing says romance like chocolate-covered strawberries…and they’re even more delicious when you make them yourself. The best part? They’re easy! Simply melt a dark chocolate bar in 30-second increments in the microwave, stirring every time, and dip juicy strawberries into the melted chocolate. Take ‘em up a notch by rolling them in chopped nuts or sprinkles.
