One Enchanted Evening

As Valentine's day is closing upon us, you may feel yourself lost in the whirlwind of where to make reservations, which Hallmark card is the right one, and what is the perfect gift for your loved one.

I've been there. The pressure is enough to call in sick to your beloved and wait for the holiday to blow over. Well, I'm here to help.

This year, forget the reservations and be original. All any woman wants is to be swept off her feet by the one she loves. An idea I am fond of is the indoor picnic.

You just move the furniture to the side, and lay out a comfy blanket to sit on.

Bring the romance up a notch by using a red blanket and tossing a few heart shaped accent pillows to lean on.

Next the rose petals. An old but always loved gesture. Have a trail of the petals leading to your picnic set up.

When she reaches your picnic layout you should have candles lit and music playing.

Some good music choices would be Barry White, Michael Buble, Julio Engalsias.

As far as the food goes it can be so simple. Have fondue, you can do a cheese fondue or one with oil and meats. For dessert chocolate fondue will be sexy sweet too!

Whatever you do, as long as it is from the heart your lover will feel enchanted. Have a wonderful, romantic Valentines' day!
