Valentine's Delays

Well, Valentine's Day is nearly here and I thought it was time I started rolling out the red dresses.  Last year we worked in a date night right around Valentine's Day and right before the world turned on its head.  I think we might have had one date night since then, but I was really hoping we could do something special this year. 
Sadly, as I watch this storm system barreling down on us this weekend, I know that we'll likely be spending Valentine's Day and many of the days following it indoors, near the fire.  I'm only praying the electricity doesn't go out for weeks on end like it has in years past.

That doesn't mean we can't celebrate; I might just have to get creative and prepare some kind of fleece blanket with a picnic spread of champagne (I always keep some on hand), chocolates (I've been curating a special box of gourmet chocolates for each of my family members so that each one is unique and special) and some other delicacies I can put together.
One of my favorite memories from Switzerland was gathering in the gorgeous chalet of a friend, eating fondue with Swiss friends on a very chilly winter day.  Well, if there's one thing the Swiss know how to do it is make the most of your time indoors during a snow storm.
Maybe I can bake a loaf of bread and put together something fondue-like for a fireside picnic.  Maybe we'll play a card game or just chat.  Whatever the case, our Valentine's plans, it look like we'll be weathering the weather together.
