out of the box date ideas

Are you tired of the same ol’ dates every Valentines Day? Has this heart-filled holiday lost all its luster for you and your Valentine? It just might be time to change things up!

There’s no rule book that says you have to go out to a fancy dinner with a box of chocolates and flowers in hand. Obviously, if that’s your cup of tea, then go for it! But if you’re desperate for a change, here are some ideas that can help get your creative juices flowing:

Stay in.

Staying home can be romantic in itself, especially for those super busy couples. If you both are simply longing for a quiet night of Hulu or Netflix binging and snuggling, Valentine’s Day is the perfect excuse. Other activities you can enjoy at home together would be:



-Cooking a meal together (Order from Hello Fresh or Blue Apron.)

-Playing board games

-Playing video games

-Dancing in the living room

-Staying in bed all day

-Reading sappy poetry

-Giving each other massages

The key is to ignore the clock and do pointless things together in your pjs… or in nothing at all…

Get active.

A simple walk hand-in-hand could do the trick. But if you’re looking for a little more, here’s a handy list of ideas:

-Ice skating

-Roller skating

-A hike in the woods

-Trampoline park

-Dancing

-Biking

-Miniature golf

-Laser Tag

-Karaoke

Sometimes doing something outside of your comfort zone lends to lots of romantic hand holding. Laughing at each other is fun, too.

Stay the night.

You don’t even have to leave town to enjoy the romance in getting away for the night. Book a B&B with a hot tub in the room or a hotel with a spa. Live it up by ordering room service, or hit the town for some drinks and dessert. This is a great opportunity to be a tourist in your own town, checking out that museum you’ve never taken the time to see, or trying that quaint restaurant everyone is always talking about. Then gloriously indulge in sleeping as late as possible the following morning.

Get crafty.

Did you ever get in on that coloring craze? [Check out this great selection of adult coloring books.] A couple of glasses of wine, a box of colored pencils, and “The Wedding Singer” on DVD can make for a low-key but highly romantic Valentine’s evening. If you don’t want to stay in, try a wine and canvas place, or paint some pottery. Ready to go all out? Maybe this is the year you get matching tattoos. Or reel it in, and visit your local art gallery.

The options are truly endless when you think outside the box of chocolates. When it comes down to it, though, the whole point of a Valentine’s Date is to spend time together. Enjoy each other!

Happy Valentine’s Day!

    Staying in is the last thing that we want to do. I think we’ll drive out to the coast and stay the night out there.

I thought of Maya Angelou when I watched the inaug I thought of Maya Angelou when I watched the inauguration. She was the poet at Bill Clinton's inauguration, if anyone remembers. This is the link to that reading youtube.com/watch?v=8ecWterxtq0 ("On the Pulse of Morning")  She lived not far from me, and when she died, I went to her estate sale. I regretted not going to see her speak while I had the chance and wanted to buy something that belonged to her. We were actually able to go into her house. People were picking through her dishes and rooms full of books, and there were paintings and scuptures she'd been gifted that were selling for thousands of dollars. Her bedroom was closed off, but it felt like we shouldn't be there.  For the few who don't know it, this is probably her most famous poem and my favorite:  Still I Rise  You may write me down in history
With your bitter, twisted lies,
You may trod me in the very dirt
But still, like dust, I’ll rise.  Does my sassiness upset you?
Why are you beset with gloom?
’Cause I walk like I’ve got oil wells
Pumping in my living room.
Just like moons and like suns,
With the certainty of tides,
Just like hopes springing high,
Still I’ll rise.  Did you want to see me broken?
Bowed head and lowered eyes?
Shoulders falling down like teardrops,
Weakened by my soulful cries?  Does my haughtiness offend you?
Don’t you take it awful hard
’Cause I laugh like I’ve got gold mines
Diggin’ in my own backyard.  You may shoot me with your words,
You may cut me with your eyes,
You may kill me with your hatefulness,
But still, like air, I’ll rise.  Does my sexiness upset you?
Does it come as a surprise
That I dance like I’ve got diamonds
At the meeting of my thighs?  Out of the huts of history’s shame
I rise
Up from a past that’s rooted in pain
I rise
I’m a black ocean, leaping and wide,
Welling and swelling I bear in the tide.  Leaving behind nights of terror and fear
I rise
Into a daybreak that’s wondrously clear
I rise
Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave,
I am the dream and the hope of the slave.
I rise
I rise
I rise.
