V-Day at home

tribalbutterfly

DH is having his wisdom teeth extracted a few days before valentine's this year and I think we will be home bound. 

Any suggestions about how we can make the day special and stay at home?  Btw, V-day is very important to me, but he needed to have this procedure done asap.

Could you try to celebrate on another day?  With his wisdom teeth just out he isn't going to be in the mood to really celebrate.  For food, I would suggest maybe making some soup, soft bread.  Movie at home?

You can easily do V-day at home and make it special.  You can do a breakfast in bed with scrambled eggs or hot cereal - both will be great for him.  A couple days after the surgery he'll be feeling almost as good as new, but I'm still paranoid about dry socket, so I'd stick to something soft.

I don't know where in CA you are, but you could plan a morning or evening stroll on the beach if it stops raining and the weather cooperates.

 Rent a bunch of your favorite movies - they don't even have to be romances, and cuddle on the couch together under a blanket watching them.

Dinner time comes around light some candles and have something nice - most shellfish is relatively "romantic" and soft/easy to eat.  Either mussels or claims with pasta, broiled lobster tail, steamed crab legs....

when i think of valentines day celebration i think of evening/dinner-ish time. i would also suggest maybe a soup or something soft. served in bed or on the couch to snuggle while watching a movie or an at home game night. FI and i like playing the Wii together or board games like 'trouble'. you could find a recipe for some sort of pudding cup so it'd be nice and soft for him to eat.

I would think maybe dessertish to make it special at home... how about chocolate pudding ice cream, or a milkshake and a movie to cuddle up to while you are spending it at home. I hope everything goes well for him.
