Have you been looking for a way to peel your significant other away from the tivo’d reruns of “Everybody Loves Raymond?” It’s time to get original!

What’s so original about a sunset, you ask?

For starters: Everything.

What’s up lovebirds?

Here’s a simple idea for you that won’t cost too much – slow dancing the night away. Tell your significant other you’d like to spend some time with them Friday night, and ask them to divvy out some time for you to to spend alone, but don’t tell them what you’ll be doing (*romance points begin!)

For this romantic idea, you are going to be taking your love interest to a quiet park or an out-of-the-way lookout somewhere overlooking your town. But we have to get some things in place first.

Spend the remainder of your week:

1. Picking out romantic songs and getting them on your MP3 player
2. Buying 4 AAA batteries
3. Ordering a portable iPod speaker system (battery operated) – $5.95 + shipping
4. Learning to slow dance

Don’t know how to dance? Read on to get some new steps. (more…)

Breakfast in bed is a romantic staple that appears in many romantic comedies, and I’d bet many would appreciate the opportunity to be served in bed.

Forget your crumbs-between-the-sheets worries and take a tip from hollywood. Breakfast in bed works!

Stop by your local Kiwanis club and pick up a couple of bed serving trays. Not only will this help keep the bed clean but it’s easier to deliver food and eat from.

A meal as simple as scrambled eggs, toast and orange juice will surely score you some points. But since you can plan this idea, why not try your hand at doing something extra special, like croissant French toast and soft caramel apples.

You’ll likely have many of the ingredients, but you might want to make sure you’re stocked with vanilla extract, confectioners’ sugar, cinnamon and croissants. And if you try it, make sure you get up early. The cooking time takes about 35 minutes.

Good luck!
