It is a well known fact despite popular belief that girls like to eat too! So get yourself down to Marks and Spencer and indulge in the dine in of two for £20. Now compare that price tag to a five star restaurant...your getting off lightly "£££". Three course meal, box of chocolates and bottle of wine, what more could a girl want? Girls would prefer you to wine and dine her anyway! So for once make the effort to cook. After all it is only one day out of the year!

After a long day of gift opening and eating her body weight in food, there is nothing more relaxing than jumping in a roasting hot bubble bath.

Steps to achieve a bubble bath with a twist:

* Secretly go and run a bubble bath.

* Scatter red rose petals in and around the bath.

* 1 LARGE glass & 1 bottle of champagne left to the side.

* Light a handful of tea lights & dim the lights.

Red roses are one of the most iconic type of flower that can be given on valentine's day. There has been such a hype for these gigantic bouquets of roses that realistically are impossible to track down. Not mention impossible to keep all 1000 of them alive and watered! A simple rose will do nicely. If you really want to go the extra mile get a bunch of your girls favourite flowers -stand out from the roses- impress her that you remembered they are her favourite flowers.
