Explore the Possibilities of the Yard
The yard is as safe as the house when it comes to social distancing. Work together to make it an escape from the pandemic. Set out lawn furniture, pots of annuals and perennials and even a plug-in water fountain. Make it a destination for dinner and for love. The more it feels like a secret garden, the better. Try to dine al fresco as much as possible on warm nights. Buy a canvas tarp from Army Surplus to enjoy sitting out in the rain. Help children to find a place in the yard. Make it a safe place for them to go when the adults want privacy.Explore the Possibilities of Home
A date is a time and a place. Partners can rename all the spaces of home. Name the room near the yard the Garden Room. Write a card inviting your partner to picnic in the Garden Room for breakfast. Call the finished basement the Cave of Wonders. Text your partner, “Meet me in the Cave of Wonders with two adult sex toys at quitting time.” The bathroom can double as the Closet of Waters. Ring your mate up and offer a loofah rubdown and a back rub in the Closet of Waters after bedtime. Children need to name spaces too. Encourage them to invite you to a film festival in the Hollywood Theater.Explore the Possibilities of the Future
The quarantines can’t last. Have fun calling restaurants to make reservations. Many places will soon offer socially distant dining in outdoor cafes. Order travel brochures and plan getaways for intimacy and family bonding. Don’t worry about booking accommodations and tickets. Count on deals on excursions once the economies open up again. Most of all, make plans long into the future because your love is stronger than a pandemic.Article author

Candy Bouquets with a Surprise in the Bottom
Being a mom who loves to celebrate Valentine's Day with her children just as much as she does with her husband, I am always on the look out for something fun, different, and inexpensive that I can do for the kids. Last year, our grocery store was selling cute candy bouquets, but the price tag was a hefty $30 for a maximum of $10 worth of supplies. After taking a couple of inconspicuous pictures, I began searching through the store for the same items that they had used to make their bouquets.
