There are many
different ways to celebrate this special day from the simple method
just buying flowers and maybe some candy to the much more involved
level of not buy the above items but also other items like jewelry. It
will very depending on how you feel about this holiday after we all
don’t celebrate it. But below are some good ideas that you can try this
year and that will help make this day special.
Lets start off
with a simple plan for Valentines day start off by buy some flowers
usually a Roses are nice but you cant mix them with other flowers as
well along with a nice vase if you don’t already have one. The next
step is to get some candy and wine because in this step we are going to
do some pairing of wine food. When pairing wines with chocolate, your
best bet is to match lighter, more elegant flavored chocolates with
lighter bodied wines and likewise, the stronger the chocolate, the more
full-bodied the wine should be. A good example is a bittersweet
chocolate tends to pair well with an intense in your face California
Zinfandel now a more subtle white chocolate ends to be mellower flavor,
making it an ideal candidate for a Sherry. This could make a very
interesting and unique Valentines Day. Of course you might not need the
chocolate candies at all depending on what your mate likes a good wine
can be by itself can be nice way to celebrate.
Another good idea
plan is to go with more then just the flowers and candy plus but you
add a romantic dinner with wine. Something about a candle light dinner
with that special someone and if by chance you have children find a
baby sitter after all it is pretty hard to set a romantic setting with
your children playing with there food. If you feel like making the
dinner yourself then go for it you can find lots of great recipes on
our website listed below as well as others. Now if you don’t feel like
cooking then order out from a good restaurant which I would recommend
you do ahead of time well before that evening.
Another good idea
plan would to plan a get away possible to nice bed and breakfast in
Wine country. Not only is this a great way to spend time together for
this holiday but it can also be a great way to celebrate other special
events. There is nothing like getting away from it all and relaxing in
the country and enjoy local wine food matching. Of course this idea you
need to plan ahead for the event and make sure that you get your get
your plane tickets and reservations at the bed and breakfast and I
would suggest calling at least 4 to 6 months head of time depending on
where you plan on going.
Hopefully these Valentines Day ideas
will help you this year or at least give you some new idea’s for that
special day. Of course with any special day remember to have fun and
enjoy each others company and maybe dance the night away with each
other.
The most important thing to remember as you celebrate trying new
wine food matching is to have fun and enjoy yourself with your family
and enjoy the food, wine and conversation.
