How to Have a Frugal & Happy Valentine's Day

February 14th can be easy, creative and fun when you plan ahead. This is your opportunity to declare your love and pinch pennies(精打细算)with a touch of class(高档,品味). Enjoy yourself. It’s all about love, not the amount of money you throw at a gift.

Create an Experience
Make dinner at home. Create a romantic atmosphere. Use a nice table cloth. Get out your best dishes and put a single flower in a bud vase. Cook his/her favorite foods. Make a special dessert. You could do this together and invite another couple. Dress your best…something special.

Have an inside picnic. Create a magical place in your living room. Light candles and turn the lights down low. Place a blanket on the floor. Serve a fresh loaf of bread, cheese, fruit, dessert and your favorite drinks.

Go to a coffee shop and feast (v.享受) on coffee and fancy cupcakes(n.纸托蛋糕).

Make Valentine's day a family affair. Have the kids decorate with crepe paper, confetti(n.碎花纸) and hand made hearts. Purchase sugar cookie dough and make and decorate cut out cookies together.

Go on a date. Choose a special place out of town to spend the evening. Poke around(闲逛)in new places. Make it an adventure. Get dessert.

Have a "Spa Nite([美]=night." Give each other a massage. Rent a DVD if you need instructions. Use special oils and lotion. Make the room nice and toasty(adj.暖和舒适的)! When you are finished you can take a bubble bath together, drink champagne or sparkling water(=soda water苏打水) in fluted glasses(槽纹玻璃).

Play your favorite music and dance the night away.

Rent a romantic movie, for example, Casablanca, The Notebook, Hitch, PS I Love You, Pretty Woman or The English Patient.

Take a romantic walk on the beach, riverfront, in a historic city, public garden or park. Stop for hot chocolate or a drink.

Go to a bookstore, browse and purchase a favorite book for each other.

只要你提早计划,情人节可以简单,充满创意与乐趣。这是展示你爱和精打细算又不失品味的好机会。享受这个爱的日子吧。重要的不是你花多少钱在礼物上,重要的是那份爱意。

制造一份经历

-    在家做一顿晚餐。制造一个浪漫的气氛。铺上一张漂亮的台布。拿出你最好的餐具,在花瓶上插上一支花。煮他/她最喜欢吃的菜。还做上一份特别的餐后甜点。你们可以一起做,后者邀请另一对夫妇加入。穿上你最好看的衣服…那些特别的。
-    来一个室内“野餐”。在你的客厅里弄出一个迷人的地方来,点上蜡烛,把光线调暗,在地板上铺一张毯子。食物可以是新鲜的面包,芝士,水果,甜点和你最爱的饮料。
-    去一家咖啡店尽情享受咖啡和精美的糕点。
-    全家一起过情人节。 让孩子们用绉纸,五彩碎纸和手制的爱心来布置房子。买一些甜饼面团,然后大家一起装饰小甜饼。
-    约会。选城外一个特别的地方过夜。探寻新的地方来个探险。带上点心。
-    过一个“香熏水疗之夜”。互相按摩,如果不知道怎样按摩可以租张DVD来参考。用特别的香油和乳液。把房间弄得既漂亮又温暖舒适。结束后,你们可以一起洗个泡泡浴,喝槽纹玻璃杯中的香槟或者苏打水。
-     在你喜欢的音乐中跳舞度过这个夜晚。
-     租一部爱情电影。例如《北非谍影》,《恋恋笔记本》《全民情敌》《附注:我爱你》《风月俏佳人》或者《英国病人》
-     浪漫地散步,在海边,河边,历史名城,公共花园或公园都行。可以停下来喝一杯热巧克力或其他饮料。
-     去一家书店,翻阅书籍来为对方选一本最爱的书。
