Valentine’s day is now only a few days away but it’s our first Valentine during quarantine so there won’t be any fancy dates like other years. It really is a disappointment that there are still so many coronavirus cases in America but even if people can’t go to fancy restaurants there are still things to enjoy with your significant other on this lovely holiday.
Ever since quarantine started many small friend groups have been going on picnic dates which is a very good idea for Valentine’s day for couple’s. Many people usually go to an open area far from other’s and everyone pitches in for goodies. This is actually a really relaxing thing to do with your lover that shouldn’t really cost much since you can either bake goodies or get some stuff from the convenience store. It’s also a good thing to just get some fresh air after being home for months as long as you take precaution and keep distance from other people.
So even though many of us were hoping that this pandemic would already come to an end we could still enjoy this lovely holiday. Even though many people do prefer expensive dinner dates it’s always fun to just appreciate the time you have with your significant other and just make good memories in these bad times. Besides, a picnic date is way better than some expensive dinner. Meanwhile a picnic can have anything you want since you picked out some food and it’s not that expensive.
