For Christmas one year I bought my boyfriend a telescope. The following Valentine's day he bought me a star. Even though I know it's not official and some think that money for a piece of paper that doesn't mean anything is a waste, I still thought it was a pretty romantic idea.

Since we love to cook, this year we decided to treat ourselves to a cooking class, and we also decided to buy each other aprons since our old ones are in dire need of replacing.
