The 14th of February

Now that Valentine's Day has come and gone all the men in the world can take a sigh of relief, while the women stuff their faces with their chocolate gifts. All is right in the world.
My boyfriend and I are quite the movie whores as I like to call us. We are even more obsessed with superheroes/marvel. So, no I wasn't seeing it for him, I was seeing it because I genuinely wanted to see it! I can hear your preconceived thoughts!
I have to admit I'm quite the fan of this holiday. I mean who wouldn't want an excuse to spend all day doing fun things with your best friends? The thing is, as dated and superficial as the holiday has become, the meaning behind it holds some weight. Celebrate the ones you love. So, my lova and I did just that.
I have a little more time on my hands this semester, so I got a little carried away and went to planning. Men hate planning things (well at least mine hates making concrete decisions) so what better gift than making all the decisions for him?? I'm a keeper for sure. LOL.
This is what I did...
Now, I'm not here to show off my exceptional creative skills, I just want to share our day and maybe next year you can copy my ideas because you're less original. I'm sorry, my sarcasm can take over sometimes. This costed me a total of $26 for groceries but it was well worth it.
Then I made the schedule above ^^that went along with the menu. The best advice for planning out a day is come up with one plan that will take up a significant amount of time and plan around that. Girls! Guys love to paint with their girlfriends! I have proof!
Now I've done paint and pour about three times now and everyone should try it at least once! It's only $35, which I've never paid the full price because they always offer groupons for about $19.99 or I've been given a discount code that takes $15 off. It's a great price considering you're getting a canvas, a two hour class and taking home a forever painting. You also get to bring drinks with you! Yes, they encourage you to drink! I mean what's better than drinking a glass of wine with your peeps while painting? The answer is NOTHING. It's a blast and my bf already wants to take me again for my birthday so I'm pretty sure he enjoyed himself. I also went with my other Valentine and her boyfriend which made it all the more fun.
In that photo (which was actually a snapchat video) I was checking out everyone else's painting and letting my bf know ours was better. :) I'm a little competitive when it's not necessary.
After the paint and pour I had made reservations to Sagano Japanesse Bistro and steakhouse located right around the corner. It was similar to a Benihana with spectacular service. I was full mid-way through the dinner which is quite the accomplishment for a foody like myself.
To finish off the night we went and saw deadpool.
Movie Reveiw: A
A great date night movie that has it all, eye candy (aka Ryan Reynolds), crude humor, action, love and more crude humor. I loved the fact that it didn't try too hard. It ripped on super heros as well as the films. It was a light hearted film that left you feeling happy. What more would anyone want?
We went home happy, full, and slightly covered in paint and fell asleep to The Office. If I could replay that day everyday I would. Pure bliss.
See guys, Valentine's Day isn't just for the girls...
But hey, truth is it is mostly for the girls. And guys, Zack really set the bar high. Look at those orchids. And then he got me sushi....sushi (not pictured because I ate it all too fast) and a few more things but the moral of the story is he's pretty awesome and I just wanted to make everyone jealous. ;)
Xoxo
