#1 Made With {Love}

Every year when valentines day comes around one finds one's self scrambling for new, cute ideas because what you did last year was so......well, last year. :) I have found that on valentines day it is the simpler, however, thought out things that give my heart a {sparkle}. Here are a few ideas to treat your loved one this valentines day, be it your partner, a family member or even just a friend. Send them off with not only a full tummy and a pretty breakfast, but a tiny piece of your heart.

~Heart Shaped Breakfast~






1.


To make this lovely breakfast all you need is a piece of bread, an egg, a cookie cutter (or a knife will do), some butter and a pan.

Cut a heart shaped hole in the middle of the slice of bread. Heat the pan over a medium heat. Swirl a little bit of butter around the pan before placing the slice of bread as well as the heart cut-out onto the pan. Now carefully crack the egg into the middle of the slice of bread.

Next,sprinkle the egg with salt and pepper (to your own liking) and cook until the bread is brown on the bottom. Then, one can either flip the slice of bread (like one would a pancake) and further cook the other side, or one can place the whole pan in the oven until the egg is cooked to your liking and the bread is browned. If you choose to finnish it in the oven then it would be preferable to brush the top of the bread lightly with a bit of melted butter.

This can be served with the lil heart on top or placed on the side. You can add anything to the plate, bacon,sausages, fried tomatoe, whatever it is that will make your loved one's heart {sparkle}.*

~A Handwritten Note~



4.


There are no doubt a variety of different cards that one can buy for valentines day, but a handwritten note is a classic charm in someone's heart. This valentines day write your loved one a handwritten note to share a little bit of sparkle from your heart to theirs. All you need is a paper and a pen. You can write a poem, your feelings, a simple "hello" or the lyrics to their favourite song. Add a personal touch by attaching a ribbon, flower or photo to the note.*

~A Romantic Picnic~

 8.




A romantic picnic is not only cost-effective and personal, but you get to control the setting. You also get to choose the refreshments be it strawberries, cream and champagne or savoury bites with juice. To make an outdoors picnic more special hang lil hearts from a tree or lay cushions on a blanket. For an outdoor picnic at night surround the area with candles or even chandeleirs. You can have a picnic indoors by moving the furniture in a room and setting up a blanket in the middle. A picnic will add a {sparkle} to anyone's valentines day.*
