I would suggest staying away from anything too smelly and the only choice for dessert is chocolate.

PizzaExpress has a 3 course Valentine's Menu for £15 but you can order a la carte too and they accept the TasteLondon card on Sunday! Guess where I booked our meal! o/

i don't really like going out for dinner on valentine's day. it's expensive and the whole forced romance is wasted on me.

we usually stay in, make a special night of it or go away for the whole weekend.

this weekend, we're going to be in holland where my OH has a job interview on friday, then we're helping my mum paint her house on saturday and sunday. haha that's love for you!

a few years ago i cut everything in my OH's lunchbox in heart shapes :D his sandwiches, some cookies. very funny, especially if they eat with colleagues ;). in turn he gave me a weekend away....hmmm i've trained him well!
