Feeling Romantically Stumped? Here Are Freshly Baked Date Ideas Just For You!

You love going out with your special someone, but what happens when going out just doesn’t feel so special anymore? The truth is, as anyone will tell you, that as you travel on the road of love, it takes effort to keep the spark and magic alive. There are many reasons for this, some of them being getting older and changing, the stress and busyness of everyday life and just generally getting used to each other.

So the key is to connect and shake things up. You need a chance to look into each other’s eyes as if for the first time and do things from that similar fresh perspective. That’s what this post is all about; helping you see each other again in a fun and connected way!

Foot Talks

Bare with me on this, but it’s so good. Set some time aside for foot rubs and conversation. If you can do this during a hotel overnight, even better! But take some time, set a timer and have one partner rub the other partner’s feet for 5 minutes; 2.5 minutes on each foot. The one getting massaged gets to talk about their feelings, their dreams, what they’ve been going through or what they’re learning. The partner rubbing gets to reflect back what they’ve heard, and share their encouragement. (not solutions!) Then the partners switch!

Mini Trip

It’s not easy to go on vacation all the time, so how about a long weekend? If you’re the outdoor type, go camping. If you’re a luxury type, find a beautiful hotel and order room service. Maybe you’d like to meet somewhere in the middle. You could go somewhere 2 hours away, stay at a bed and breakfast or a wellness resort and spend some time without media and more talking and laughing.

Go Back

Regardless of whether it’s there or not, revisit the place where you first met. Walk down the street. Go inside. Sit outside and look. Imagine what would have happened if you hadn’t crossed paths and look at all the good that’s happened because you did. Eat the same food. Listen to the same song. Maybe wear the same clothes? Make it fun.

Sweet List

Plan a night to bake together. Choose a cake or a pie that you both love and take the time to get all the right ingredients and time you need to bake. Then do the baking! Put on your favorite music and agree to not talk about anything stressful or heavy. This is sweet time! Then while the sweet is baking, use that time to share what you love about the other person. Tell them where you’ve seen them be sweet in the last few days/weeks and appreciate them. Take turns doing this and see where it takes you. But don’t forget about that cake in the oven!

Cake and Wine

Who does that? You do. You can enjoy and indulge in a rich red velvet cake and a bottle of red wine. Why not? Enjoy it in front of a fire or at the beach at sunset. Just allow your senses to overcome you and get lost in the moment. Share a kiss and let it take you away.

No matter what you decide to do, the key is to spend some time together remembering your years together and looking forward to the years you have left.
