Well, okay, here is what I thought. I talked to him last night, and I think he has a plan on WHAT we're doing, so that's all good. But I am going to give him homemade tortillas. He never gets them b/c when he goes to see his mom, she always has to work, so she never really has time to cook for him. And also, he has been asking me snce last summer to learn how to make tortillas for him b/c it is something he loves. He hates store bought ones, and they aren't as good when he makes them he says b/c he had to make them. So I found a good recipe, and I am going to make him a batch of homemade tortillas. I also want to get him something else, but I haven't decided what else to get him..maybe some boxers or something to wear that night..I dunno..

What other small item would be good?

This is my first VDay with a b/f. I am looking forward to it very much. I've already bought silk boxers with Pepe L'Pew on them. Still thinking of a way to them... A nice Mexican dinner and salsa dancing that evening. We haven't been dancing in a few months and I know he would love it.

Sara - you're b/f wouldn't happen to be hispanic would he? Mine is from Mexico and I'm trying to learn to cook some Mexican meals but so far I am clueless. If you don't mind sharing your tortilla recipe...I would love to try that for him.

I'm with you Shawna!

DH and I have been together for 9 years, too, and Valentine's Day just isn't quite the thing it used to be. We'll exchange cards and go out somewhere nice for dinner. If I'm really lucky, I'll get some flowers (DH thinks flowers are a waste of money--they just die in a few days!).

All this talk about lingerie; you mean, there's actually something different to wear to bed besides my flannel PJ's?!

Hey Jessica,

Yeah he's MexicanAmerican. Here's the link to that recipe--

http://bread.allrecipes.com/az/AuthenticMexicanTortilla.asp

I hope he enjoys it. Roger has been bugging me since forever to have his mom teach me, but she never has the chance to when I go to see her, so I took it upon myself.

Can you Salsa?? I always trip over my feet..I just can't do it! I am a really good dancer except for salsa...and we used to go out to salsa dances all the time, I would just let him dance with his female friends.
