You don’t have to spend your hard-earned cash on expensive flowers and gifts in order to show your love. Here are a few special ways you can spread your love this Valentine’s Day.
1. Heart healthy strawberry smoothie
Have a heart-healthy Valentine’s Day by making a delicious, antioxidant rich smoothie with a cup of frozen strawberries, a cup of Greek yogurt, and a tablespoon of flaxseed or chia seeds. This smoothie is plentiful in fiber, antioxidants, protein and calcium, which will help you look and feel great on Valentine’s Day. If you have kids, consider making some kid-friendly smoothies to show them that Valentine’s Day is not for adults only.
2. Flaxseed pancakes
On February 14, surprise your sweetheart or family with some tasty heart shaped pancakes. Add some flaxseed to your pancake batter to make your pancakes healthier. You can use a heart shaped cookie cutter to make your pancakes more romantic and decorate them with some strawberries. This is a delicious way to spread your love this Valentine’s Day.
3. Make someone’s day
If your close friend is sad for the holiday of love as she has no partner or family to be with, why not open up your home to her to join you? If she doesn’t want to join you, it will be a nice idea to pack a meal and bring it to her. Simple but nice acts can make her day. On Valentine’s Day, you usually think about your sweetheart, but you shouldn’t forget about other people in your life.
4. Send flowers
We all love to receive a bouquet of beautiful flowers every now and then, right? It’s always great to know and feel someone is thinking of you. This Valentine’s Day, send some flowers to a mom, friend or relative to spread your love. This little act of kindness will certainly brighten their day and make you feel great as well!
5. Bring gifts to a homeless shelter
Bringing some simple gifts to a homeless shelter is one of the best ways to spread your love this Valentine’s Day. Contact a local homeless shelter and find out the most important needs of people that are staying there. You can wrap up some practical things like clothes and shoes and add a Valentine’s Day card and chocolates. Remember, these people deserve love too.
If you like to help others and want to make this world a better place, then spread your love on February 14 by helping a local charity or at a local food bank and packing some care packages to send overseas. Perhaps, it’s the most unusual and budget-friendly way to show your love on Valentine’s Day.
