I don’t remember what the bf and I did last year. Probably made souvlaki or something and rented movies (aka a regular weekend/day for us).

My best VDay was with my then-boyfriend 3 years ago. We went out to a romantic dinner at this awesome restaurant that was completely lit by candles….So beautiful! And the only thing I remember about the actual dinner was the dessert: a plate of chocolate truffles and strawberries to share

When I was little, my parents would make a Valentine’s Day treasure hunt for my sister and me. They would post clues that we would have to figure out and at the end was chocolates and valentine’s day gifts.

I made homemade enchiladas with chocolate molé sauce for V-day one year and it was amazing..a lot of work but so worth it!

January 17, 2010 at 7:43 am

No memorable v-days. I don’t really support or celebrate it. I think you should show appreciation all through out the year as opposed to once a year when corporate America spews pink hearts all over the place. I think it means more if it’s random.

as a kid, i always loved valentine’s day because it was just a fun day–no expectations like christmas or birthdays. just a regular day plus love and candy! not quite the case any more.

One Valentine’s Day I had the most amazing sea scallops ever. They were so decadent and delicious!

My most memorable V-day was a few years ago. My husband and I had plans to go out to a fancy dinner, but they were foiled by a horrible nor-easter that made it impossible to go anywhere far. We wound up going to a tiny local place near our apartment and having veggie burgers and sweet potato fries. It was delicious, and the experience was so relaxed and low-key.

Two Valentines ago, I was studying abroad and away from my boyfriend. I videochatted with him, then my friend came to visit for the weekend and we all went out for drinks & dessert at a beautiful spot overlooking the Parisian skyline!

My favorite Valentine’s Day was last year. I made lasagna for my boyfriend and paired it with fresh italian bread and a nice healthy salad. I set up a nice table setting downstairs in my basement so we could have some privacy (I still live with my parents). It was so nice to have a low key Valentine’s Day at home. We vowed not to exchange gifts as we both feel the holiday is very commercial. Instead we decided to simply celebrate our own relationship and the relationships we have with our families and loved ones!

Thanks so much for the opportunity! 2 years ago, for Valentine’s Day, I traveled to my sister’s apartment. I don’t see her very much so we shopped around and went to eat at Red Robin! YUMMMMMM

My favorite valentines day is easy. My boyfriend and I were at a Sandals Resort in Jamaica and at midnight he proposed. So hard to believe that was almost 17 years ago. Oh, and the dinner that night was lobster!

It might sound cliche but I got engaged on Valentine’s Day. I would have to put that as the best one yet. We had a wonderful dinner out and a movie and then he told me he had a gift and asked then.

Last Valentines day I had a party for my team and made a bunch of food. Spinach dip, two kinds of pasta bakes, bacon-cheese calzone, cupcakes, it was pretty ridiculous. I got a giant mylar heart balloon from my secret valentine!

My favorite Valentines Day was the first one I spent with my husband, before we were married or even engaged. He took me to a French cafe near the beach where I had Osso Bucco for the first time (tender, savory and delicious). We were going to have creme brulee for dessert, but they had run out so they gave us a gift certificate to come back! We got to reminisce about our V-day meal in the cafe again while eating creamy spinach and cheese crepes for lunch

my fav valentine’s was actually the year david tried to cook for me what he decided were my favorite foods…chicken, potatoes and stuffing. It was adorable because he could only cook one item at a time..I was starved!

My fave Valentine’s Day was last year when my husband tried to make a veggie casserole for dinner but totally messed it up! The food was horrible but we ended up having a wonderful night!

I don’t know if this counts as MY best Valentine’s Day, but when I was a kid, my sister and I busted out the Joy of Cooking cookbook and made a romantic dinner for our parents, including things that at the time, we couldn’t even pronounce, like vichyssoise. Not sure how good/bad everything tasted, but our parents seemed to appreciate it nonetheless.

One of my favorite past Valentine’s was spent at the Melting Pot with my boyfriend and he surprised me with balloons, flowers and a stuffed animal when we got there

My favorite valentine’s day was the first year I was dating my (now) husband. I was so happy and in love and super excited to spend this day with someone I really care about. It was a blizzard outside, but we still decided to go out to the restaurant we made reservations at – it was a small Italian restaurant/wine bar in West Village (I think) and our tiny table was right by the window. It was super cozy and romantic – we were watching the snow fall but were warm and happy inside. Thanks for taking me back there…

My favorite past Valentine’s Day was my first one with my boyfriend. He’s omnivorous but luckily very open to Vegan cuisine (if you couldn’t guess, I’m vegan, haha). He had ordered in some food from my favorite vegan Asian place in his neighborhood and surprised me with that and some sweet gifts when I came over.

My favorite Valentine’s Day was last year… my current BF and I went to this really fancy restaurant that was all pink, and they had candles everywhere! They brought us a mini chocolate fountain with pink colored white chocolate in it. I also got a salad and they had cut the fruit into little hearts, and the soup had heart crackers! Cutest Valentine’s Day ever!

Oh yum! Last year was my favorite Valentine’s Day. We were going to go out to dinner but my little guy was 2 weeks early, and born Feb 6th. I went out in the morning and when I came home, my husband had a box and envelope that said “Mommy” on the boppy pillow that the baby was laying on. It was adorable and melted my heart – it was diamond earrings As far as food, no idea, I can’t even remember!!
