Valentine’s Day 2010
Jeff and I didn’t make any real plans for Valentine’s Day… briefly talked about going out of town for the long weekend but ultimely decided to chill out at home. We’re both home-bodies anyway so we didn’t mind. We agreed not to get each other anything, but i did want to do something special for him.
I made him a scavenger hunt with bunches of Sweetarts hidden amongst the house. The first clue started by his clock with a homemade card. Each clue led to the next one, and each clue had one letter on it highlighted. Each letter was part of a word jumble that spelt out his present at the final location. It was PRETZELS! I got him a little package of chocolate-covered pretzels. Jeff liked it a lot and was sad he didn’t get me anything but he did pick me some flowers from the garden and used our new vases that we got from his Aunt Jacqueline for a housewarming gift.
After hanging out a bit, we made homemade pesto chicken sandwiches. They were so yummy and simple to make. Wrapped them up in foil and took them to the beach.
The sunset at Marina State Beach was beautiful. I miss being able to take a short jog there – which is what i used to do when i lived in an apartment not far from there. The waves were rockin’ but didn’t see any surfers. Jeff and I had a great relaxing day and it feels so good to know we didnt have to go to work the next day!
