10 Things Your Sweetie Wants For Valentine’s Day Other Than Flowers

If you are a florist, please forgive me. I LOVE a gorgeous flower arrangement. However, they do not say that the way to a person's heart is through their eyes or nose. They say the way to a person's heart is through their stomach.

My dad was the GOAT when it came to Valentine's Day. He brought me bouquets of corndogs! If you didn't know, I love corndogs more than Reba. Best day EVER! If battered fried meat on a stick sounds more appealing to you than a bouquet of beautiful blooms, keep scrolling. I do have a couple of non-food-related ideas as well!

Texas Roadhouse Rolls

Books or Records or Both!

Local book, record, comic, cool stuff store, Displaced Pages, has allllllll kinds of great options if your Valentine is a reader or loves music. They have some other bookish gifts and artwork too!

A Dozen Wings

Go on a romantical adventure to J's Good Grub or your favorite spot and get your special someone a dozen of those delicious wings. He even has a vegan version!

Yoga Classes at Black Lotus

Your sweetie pie would love the gift of relaxation, restoration, and wellness. Whether you take classes together or give a membership, it will be the gift that sweetens the soul this Valentine's Day.

Donuts Do the Trick

You know what smells even better than roses? Chocolate long johns! Whether your boo thang is a Rolling Pin loyalist or a Gramps fanatic, they'll love you forever if you treat them to some fried dough and icing!

Chicken Nuggies

You know you want a heart-shaped tray of Chick-fil-A goodness! Oh yeah, baby!

Pigs in a Blanket

The diner delicacy I usually inhale on the way home from either The Big Dipper or Wonder Whip. I call it a "road dog," but this year, I may call it Valentine's dinner! A hot dog stuffed with cheese, wrapped in bacon, deep-fried, and tossed into a bun. Hits the spot every time!

Lumpia from Mangkok Cuisine

Actually, just everything from this food truck. Period. IYKYK!

Candied Treats or Sweets from Posh Sweet Treat Creations

Believe me when I say if your sweet tooth has never been spoiled by April, you are missing out! She hosts a pop-up for Valentine's so you can pick out anything your heart desires. It's just so hard to choose! Classic chocolate-covered strawberries get me every time.

Tacos from Jordy's

Looooooooord, y'all, my mouth started watering when I typed that out. They are actually hosting their infamous buffet on Valentine's Day so you can get all fat and sassy with the one you love.

Lic's Choco Cremes

Tickets to a Concert or Show

Beaver Dam Amphitheater, Riverpark Center, Castle Knoll, Ford Center, Victory Theatre, ROMP, there are all kinds of venues around the area with great entertainment this year. Experience gifts are the BEST so you can make some memories together.

Ok, wait, that is more than ten. You're welcome for the bonus! haha! We'll just make this an ongoing list. Let me know what you would add by sending me an Appchat message.
