I totally waited until the last minute to get my boyfriend a gift and I’m out of options. I work late tonight and obviously won’t be able to order anything online. My plan was to get him something out of the ordinary flowers, chocolate or cologne but I’m out of time! Help!

Last minute Lenora in MD

Lenora its okay, you’ll be fine! I’m actually happy that you’re local because this makes it a bit easier for me to make some last minute recommendations. Now, given what little I do know about your significant other Im going to assume that you want to WOW him instead of as you said going with just the standard chocolate and cologne.

Swanky Hotel Restaurant

Make dinner reservations at a swanky upscale hotel restaurant. Try your local Westin or The Madison. You don’t have to spend the night there but this will kick the night up a notch since it may not be your usual dinner round. Make sure to call ahead to the hotel restaurant to make sure that they are expecting you and that your reservations are valid. Since this is a popular night, they might get busy, things get overlooked. Call ahead.

Call your local Pastry Shop

We LOVE Just Cakes in Bethesda, MD and had I thought ahead, my love would have his German Chocolate cake waiting for us tomorrow in our suite (grown folk bizness, back up now!). If you can swing by there and pick up a ready made cake you are good to go! Plan a small desert dinner evening with a little romantic music and you’ll be set!

Personal Attention

My hubby has a bald head and he pays meticulous attention to shaving and grooming. Knowing this I got him a gift card for a one of a kind shave and grooming session at the Grooming Lounge here in DC. It was also a last minute addition to his gifts which also gets me points for being something I know he’ll love!

Hopefully those will get you started! Let us know how it turns out!

There aren’t many days when I take the time to reflect upon the love of my life. Life gets so busy sometimes that it takes going through hard times to really appreciate who you’ve got sitting next in your corner day in and day out. I tell friends that he is as consistent as the as the rising and going down of the sun. He is, and for the first time in a long time I reflected upon that today. I am thankful for him and nothing else comes close to the love we share for each other. He has been my rock, biggest fan and unyielding supporter in all I do, no matter who I wake up and decide to be on any given day. And for that, I am thankful. Thankful that I am madly in love and still have a girly crush on this husband of mine and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

On Valentine’s Day, everyday, I love you, thank you for loving me.
