Where I am, there's about an hour left of Valentine's Day. If you're short on romantic ideas, consider having a picnic inside. Bread, cheese, salads non-standard (such as potato, pasta or cucumber) or the normal kind, or just a large steak on a blanket. Play nature sounds. If you're feeling rich, serve sushi next. Play ocean sounds. This is my dream.
Or, for the Slavists, Orthodox Christians, Catholics, Indo-Europeanists and, perhaps, Slavs in your life, celebrate instead the Feast of Saints Cyril and Methodius, who Christianized the Slavs and created Old Church Slavonic, and are, apparently, the co-patron saints of Europe, as of 33 years ago. This is neither my dream nor my reality.

| Happy Valentine's Day. |
Incidentally, the first image you get when you Google-Image-search "Cyril and Methodius cookie" is the same as when you simply search "Cyril and Methodius." It seems like the kind of minor religious/historical event that might come with a pastry of a distinctive shape. This is closest to my reality. (My reality at the present moment involves half a cheesecake brownie.)
