5 ideas for a perfect valentine's day without leaving home

Don't let the pandemic ruin your Valentine's Day plans! Reinvent yourself and do something different with your soulmate ... without leaving home! In & Out Cooking has some activity suggestions for you to enjoy together.

Breakfast in bed

What do you think about surprising your partner with a delicious breakfast in bed? Choose to prepare what he/she likes best and don't have the opportunity to eat every day, for example, yogurt with granola and fruit, croissants, various types of bread, pancakes, a toast with avocado and egg, natural juice, tea, cappuccino, among many other things. You can also prepare one of our 4 recipes, which will make your day more sweet and special.



As you know, it is the details that make the difference, so we suggest that you prepare the hot drink, which you choose, in Alessi's “To” Mug, to give a touch of delicate and discreet romanticism to your surprise. If you choose to prepare herbal tea, you can also complement this item with the Infuser "You" from the same brand.

Leave surprises around the house

The night before, after your soulmate goes to sleep, leave, in the places where she/he least expects around the house, notes with cute or funny phrases, games that have between the 2 of you, flowers, or other symbolic surprises. When you wake up, don't say anything! Let him/her be amazed throughout the day by every surprise. Believe us, such a simple gesture will improve so much his/her day!

Dinner in the garden/balcony

If you have a small garden or balcony and the weather allows it, prepare an outdoor dinner and allow you to get out of the hurried routine and, without smartphones, put into practice one of the pillars of any relationship: communication! Only you, your better half, and the stars, with candles and the romantic playlists from In & Out Cooking, to help create the perfect mood.

If you have children and have someone you trust to leave them for a few hours or even all night, this is a great opportunity to get some time alone together (which is so important!). Otherwise, there is always the possibility to adapt the dinner to include the children.



As notes on your table, we suggest the AYTM collection of “Globe” vases and the “Girotondo” napkin ring by Alessi, to give a final and sophisticated touch to your decoration.

Creative photos

Are you a couple in love with photography? Take advantage of this day to put your creativity to the test and record this date in the various corners of the house, using the elements available in it. Then, use these photos to make an album or even decorate your home, making it even more welcoming.

Thus, whenever you look at the photographs, you will remember the year when, despite the world is turned upside down, your love remained intact, and you celebrated it in the same way. If you have children, you can and should include them in this activity!

Relaxed end of day/night

What do you most enjoy doing together, at home? Cooking, watching movies, playing games, ... you must spend quality time together, without anything external disturbing you, and continue flirting like in early times!

Just watching the stars through the window/balcony / in the garden or doing some activity that you really like (but don't have time). Open a bottle of wine, make some popcorn, create a comfortable mood (don't forget the In & Out Cooking playlists!), flirt a lot and make this a habit and not just on this day.

If you have children, you can always adapt this activity to include them. You can also enjoy it after they go to bed or leave them that night with someone you trust.

Discussions about popcorn are going to end up, with the Joseph Joseph microwave set, where each unit has the perfect capacity for one person! They are ready in a few minutes, and there is no need to add oil or butter.

To help create a more pleasant environment, choose Alessi's “Ahhh” leaf diffuser, made of mahogany wood with notes of cardamom, hyacinth, and vetiver.

Immerse yourself in the romantic atmosphere and have an unforgettable day with your soulmate!
