P.G.
My hubby is eating healthy and I got him middle eastern food. I included a note that said "Happy Valentines Day. I would falafal if I didn't get you something you like!"
I was planning on baking my husband some of his favorite cupcakes to surprise him for Valentine's Day...until I remembered that he gave up sweets for Lent. So now I need a plan B. Any ideas, creative mommies? I will go pick up a bottle of champagne, but what else?
Thanks all! Great advice and we had a very nice evening.

There is really only one thing men want for Valentines day ;)
A porterhouse steak (grilled), a loaded baked potato, and a beer.
Men don't tend to like champagne. That's a chick thing.
you in a flimsy negligee?
Melissa!! True.
Chanpange, strawberries, crackers and a cheese plate. Served in bed with a nightie :)
Hmmmm....gonna have to think about this O....NOT!
(wink, wink)
Seriously, a nice dinner!
bacon wrapped scallops
shrimp cocktail
stuffed mushrooms
fruit and cheese plate
I always do a basket of antipasto favs for my hubby. He doesn't like sweets
Wine
Good cheese (keep cold of course)
Garlic stuffed olives
Good spread
Good crackers
Good sausage
Go the extra and pay for the good stuff.
and then, a BJ
Seriously - do it - I promise that is what he wants.
Got my hubby a new hat from his favorite sports team, some cute boxers, and a stuffed animal that sings a love song. Goofy, but he loved all of it. Why not buy yourself a sexy little something to wear.....a gift for him and you. ( :
Flavored nuts? My DH likes flavored peanuts in the fancy tins.
Make him his favorite meal?
Follow up with as others suggested...
I ordered my hubby a coupon book from Datevitation. I picked out 12 different "activities" we can do together. I included things like breakfast in bed, a hike and lunch, day of fishing together, and something "unmentionable" ;) etc. He is not much of a V-day guy, but he really liked the gift this morning. You could easily make one of these yourself at home on the computer, I only ordered one since I got a groupon deal.
...While he eats a bowl of ice cream. (Is that considered a "sweet"?) In fact, fix him a big bowl, and make him eat the whole thing before he is even allowed to touch you.
Can I just take a moment to publicly laugh out loud at Patricia G's note to her husband? Very funny! I am hearing the rimshot in my head at that one!
smoked salmon, cream cheese, capers, red onions and fancy crackers. Then make a delicious meal that he would love...steak and crab? Scallops, shrimp and halibut? You can still spoil him with yummy food!
