8 Things We’d Really (Truly) Love This Valentine’s Day

It's that time of year again and whether you celebrate Valentine's Day with your other half or not, it's still a good time to drop a hint or two if you're feeling under appreciated.  Here are seven things that are super indulgent in one way or another. Let the winking and nudging commence... 1. A stroll somewhere meaningful You know in movies when the lovers are walking hand-in-hand beside a moonlit river or sipping Prosecco on a blanket in a sunny meadow? Yeah, that. We'd give our right arm for a man to take the initiative and plan a thoughtful ramble that doesn't necessarily end in a proposal (although we're totally fine with that too).  2. A quick fix for frown lines No time for a facial? This gorgeous Décleor mask gives you salon-worthy effects at home. Our advice? Run a bath, pour a glass of vino and relax under a Aurabsolu Hydrogel Mask for 30 minutes. Step out feeling like you've had a spa break... and all for €16. 3. A Monart mini break The five-star spa's new Monart Life Mini break is packed with rejuvenating and detox focused treats, all within a 48-hour time frame. Start with an Indian Head Massage followed by a nap in the unique 360 degree dark room. Then head for the Sauna Ritual before a thermal suite journey and dinner at the Garden Lounge. Day two begins with a 9am Rise and Shine Meditation before breakfast, an aqua class and a light lunch at the Spa Café. The afternoon is all about rejuvenation with a Thermal Suite Journey, Sauna Ritual and a Voya Massage before dinner at the renowned Monart restaurant. Prior to departure enjoy brekkie and a 30-minute Dry Flotation. Prices from €479 pps. 4. Breakfast in bed This one is very achievable. Simply send him the link to these French Toast Bites, or mention these Banana Pancakes in conversation. On a health kick? Try these Avocado Eggs or this yummy smoothie. With any luck, your Valentine will enlist the kids to help whip you up a feast while you nab a sleep-in. 5. An hour in a 'Deep Sleep' room  If a toxin-blasting scrub, followed by a detoxing wrap sounds like your cup of green tea, send Himself the link to The Thai Spa at the Lough Erne Resort in the stunning Lakeland district of Enniskillen, Co. Fermanagh. Just 90 minutes from Dublin or Belfast, the Thai Spa Detox Getaway awaits, with an overnight stay, ESPA Body scrub and Algae Wrap, full body brushing and gentle exfoliation and a full scalp massage included. Afterwards retreat to the Lap Sabai (meaning 'Deep Sleep') Room for a long snooze. Sunday – Thursday, €234 per person sharing. 6. A clean house Is there anything more thrilling than opening the front door of your home to find every surface gleaming, the laundry done and put away and the air lemon scented? We'd happy enjoy a romantic Valentine's Day dinner of cheese toasties on the sofa if the house was so clean it looked like Kim and Aggie had been 'round. In related news, scientists have discovered that couples who share the majority of the household chores have the most rewarding sex lives - might be worth mentioning if somebody hasn't been pulling their weight. 7. A Butlers Pink Marc de Champagne Truffle Puff Firstly; who doesn't want something called a Truffle Puff? Not only is the pretty package divine to look at, it's also filled with sumptuous pink champagne truffles in a crisp white chocolate shell, lightly dusted with icing sugar with a pink pearlescent hue. To die for. And not for sharing. €9.99 from Butlers and Easons.  8. Some thoughtful bedroom action There isn't a woman alive who wouldn't appreciate a little more titillation before rolling in the hay. Whatever happened to kissing buddy, remember that? Slap an intercourse ban on the 30 minutes after bedtime and bring back the romance. What would you like to receive on Valentine's Day? Let us know on Twitter @HerFamilydotie.
