Ha! I knew I couldn't have been the only one to think of that. Mind you most of mine did include things which would cost money. But the (semi-)priceless ones which haven't already been listed (at least the ones I can remember at the moment) were:
  • A long, hot, sensual bath.
  • Cook your favourite dinner.
  • Do your share of the chores for a week.
  • Read to you.
  • Take you for a drive to a destination of your choice.
No partner for me this year, so no Valentines day celebrations, but this is what I did last year: I wrote the list on individual square bits of good quality coloured paper, folded them into origami hearts, cranes and other animals and shapes, and placed them all over her room. And wrote a poem on a handmade card (with a heart inside) hinting at hidden messages carried by the new inhabitants of her room.
