With Valentine’s Day fast approaching you might be brainstorming ideas for a date night with your significant other. Babysitters might be hard to find or you may prefer a casual night in. Either way, watching a romantic movie together can always be a great date night. Below I’ve listed the best romantic movies. Find a classic to enjoy again or try a new film. I hope your date night ends perfectly, just like these romance movies.

Musicals

Falling in Love with Love . . . February is one of the better months of the year because it is the shortest winter month, the Superbowl and Academy Awards are both held during, and I look good in red. Being that it is the month of love, I thought I would touch on the subject with another movie guide.  The following movie guide is not totally focused on romance but instead on a movie genre I love . . . MUSICALS.  Obviously, love is almost always the main focal point of a musical but the dancing and singing are the parts that make my heart swell.

Mini Cherry Chocolate Chip Bread

Truth – I used to eat maraschino cherries straight from the jar as an after-school snack. I’m sure my mother didn’t know. Truth – On occasion, I STILL eat maraschino cherries straight from the jar. I can’t help it! I love them. These loaves of mini cherry chocolate chip bread are perfect to give as Valentine’s gifts or to keep and eat for yourself. I find that by making mini bread loaves I am better able to portion-control instead of devouring it all immediately.

Heart Shaped Fruit Pizza

This heart fruit pizza has a sugar cookie crust, cream cheese “sauce”, and fruit as toppings.

Strawberry Parfaits

Strawberry parfaits are incredibly easy and fast desserts to make but can still pass as fancy in a pinch. If you need a “dessert for dummies” recipe this is the one.

Strawberry parfaits are kid-friendly, chocolate-free, and make a perfect Valentine’s Day treat for anyone. Class it up by putting the parfait in a wine glass and adding a strawberry fan to up the ante.
