Valentine’s Day is almost here and if you are still thinking on how to celebrate it with your loved one, we have an interesting suggestion for you. Give those date nights a miss and surprise your partner with a Valentine’s Day breakfast in bed. Yes, you heard that right.
Don your chef’s hat and whip up your partner’s favourite dishes. A delicious breakfast, your own comfortable bed and the company of your partner – what more do you want?
Fret not! We have some cool products from Snapdeal listed to come to your rescue
Start with the favourites: You very well know your partner’s favourite breakfast dishes. So why take chances? It’s a special day and you can only make it more special by making something your partner loves to eat. It could be fluffy pancakes, a loaded sandwich, an omelette with liberal doses of cheese or even a salad and smoothie combo. Believe us, there cannot be a better way to start this year’s Valentine’s Day.
A beverage to go with: Nothing like that morning fix of coffee or tea to start the day on a positive note. So now that you’ve cooked your partner’s favourite dish, you can quickly team it up with a beverage.
If you want to up the ‘fancy’ quotient, you can make cold coffee loaded with caramel and whipped cream. And if you want to take this V-Day breakfast to an altogether new level, you can get a champagne, wine or cocktail to do that for you.
Plate it with love: You have taken the efforts to cook that delicious breakfast. Why not plate it with love then? How about heart-shaped cookies and waffles with a side of strawberries and cream? You can use jams and sauces to add splashes of red here and there or even try latte art with stencils.
Little extra, maybe: It’s not any other day, so it would be a good idea to go that extra mile. Once your dish and beverage are ready, all you need to do is to present them well. You can add a personal touch to the whole thing by using creatively folded napkins, a rose, chocolates, ribbons and finally, love notes. Do this and then see the sparkle in your partner’s eyes. We also recommend some cute china.
It’s all about the mood: It’s V-Day and love is definitely in the air. All this romance needs the right ambience. Now we know, you want to surprise your partner. So it’s time to get your stealth mode on and add some romantic touches to your room. You could do that with the help of flowers, fairy lights, scented candles and balloons. You can even change the alarm tone to your partner’s favourite love song. Whether your special someone likes dream catchers or balloons, Snapdeal’s got you covered.
Avoid messy situations: Nobody wants spilt beverage and food crumbs to spoil the mood and kill the ambience. You can avoid such V-Day disasters by using a sturdy breakfast-in-bed tray, preferably one with legs or with deep edges to lay out your spread. And always keep napkins and tissues handy.
So get ready to celebrate this Valentine’s Day differently – you, your loved one and that perfect breakfast-in-bed.
