Here are the Top 10 Valentine’s Day events and activities to do this year.

1. Dining out – Probably one of the most popular things to do on Valentine’s Day is to go out to dinner. Be aware of long lines and places you’ll need reservations for. Be creative and try a new restaurant that may be less crowded. Or get some take out from your favorite place and eat at your own cozy candlelit table at home.

2. Heart Shaped and Red Foods – If you have children this can be a fun activity. All day serve heart shaped and red foods. French toast or pancakes can be made into hearts easily with a cookie cutter as well as grilled cheese. For red foods try tomato soup, strawberries and spaghetti with red tomato sauce. If you’re making your special someone breakfast in bed on Valentine’s Day you can use the same theme to impress them!
