Even now that I'm happily married, Valentine's Day is just another day. A handwritten note and a bunch of chocolate (not flowers, if you must know) is my jam. Thankfully, my wife also cringes at the thought of celebrating Hallmark's holiday.

Some people prefer to give gifts on Valentine’s Day, while others like to focus on experiences. Even people who shun the idea of expensive gift-giving and classic gifts like chocolate or flowers can prepare a thoughtful card for that special someone. Valentine’s Day cards are personal and let that special someone know you love them.

Galentine's or Valentine's Day plan that isn't yet another pricey prix-fixe? Why it matters: Think outside the chocolate box with these fun ideas. 🫕 Cozy up, apres-ski style at a.kitchen+bar dc's new pop-up winter lounge,
