Avoid the hustle and bustle, by simply creating a lovely, tranquil evening in paradise~at home…

Make your own Massage Oil:
use any light oil you have, and warm it up a bit
add a drop of essential oil or fragrance oil
or if you don’t have those on hand, use a couple drops of extract, like almond or vanilla

Homemade Foot Scrub:
cleanse your feet with equal parts fresh lemon juice & water
have this homemade scrub recipe ready to use:
make a paste with a handful of very ripe strawberries, a bit of oil, fresh lime or lemon juice, honey & salt
Massage into feet, rinse & repeat w/lemon juice & water mixture

Other ideas:
~Enjoy a simple, fresh & light candlelit dinner-you don’t want to spend all evening cooking in the kitchen-
~Play a romantic or relaxing CD
~A bouquet of fresh flowers is a nice touch and you can pick them up in most grocery stores
~Enjoy strawberries dipped in melted milk chocolate or white chocolate for an easy, yet decadent dessert
~Write each other love notes
~Present each other with your own coupons as gifts, pledging to do things for each other that you normally wouldn’t do

Relax and enjoy…

Happy Valentine's Day to All!
