<p><em><a href="http://ecosalon.com/9-last-minute-personalized-valentines-gifts-perfect-for-v-day/">Valentine</a>’s Day is full of heartfelt gestures. Although some of those gestures are beautiful, others could damage another thing you love: Planet Earth.</em></p>
<p>So, we’ve come up with three ways you can show your partner you care that won’t sour your relationship with the planet.</p>
<h3>1. Plant blooms</h3>
<p>Red roses are gorgeous. But red roses also are expensive and are typically shipped in from another country. And because red roses are the Valentine&#8217;s Day show stopper, you can multiply those shipping costs by&#8230; a lot.</p>
<p>Instead of buying a dozen red roses, invest in a beautiful pot, some gardening gloves, potting soil, grow lights, and various rose seeds, or a rose start.</p><div id="inContentContiner"><!-- /4450967/ES-In-Content -->
    <div id="div-gpt-ad-1430927735854-0">
    <script type="text/javascript">
    googletag.cmd.push(function() {
      googletag.display("div-gpt-ad-1430927735854-0");
      googletag.pubads().refresh([adslot4]);
    });
    </script>
    </div>

    <!-- ES-In-Content
		<script type="text/javascript">
		GA_googleFillSlot("ES-In-Content");
		</script>--></div>
<p>Although this gift isn’t traditionally beautiful outright, your partner will enjoy more than a dozen blooms in his or her favorite color once the flowers mature.</p>
<p>In addition to getting more bang for your buck, you could also plan a special day in late spring or early summer to plant the roses. Then, once the seeds or start grows and begin to bloom, you can have a relaxing date outside.</p>
<h3>2. Go local</h3>
<p>Sure, those stuffed animals that line your local drugstore shelves are cute, but they’re constructed overseas and made from less than sustainable components.</p>
<p>Get your lover a <a href="http://ecosalon.com/20-of-the-quirkiest-offbeat-quotes-about-love-for-your-valentines-day/">Valentine</a> gift from a local shop, or a sweet treat from a local artisan. Your town most likely is filled with local artists who make intricate, heartfelt Valentine cards, beautiful, handmade jewelry and mouthwatering candies and cakes. After all, who really wants a basic tennis bracelet from a chain jewelry store?</p>
<h3>3. Stay in</h3>
<p>We’re talking no driving, no ordering take out, and no movie out. Keep your carbon footprint low by buying your Valentine’s day dinner and dessert ingredients when you do your weekly grocery shopping.</p>
<p>Then, on Valentine’s day, get a fire going, light some candles, turn off the lights and enjoy your partner’s company. Consider breaking out board games&#8230; or making your own <a href="http://ecosalon.com/valentines-day-recipe-vegan-strawberry-mousse/">Valentine</a>&#8216;s Day-themed game.</p>
<p>Take the time to reconnect with your favorite person sans electronic distractions. After all, time alone with your lover is never a bad thing.</p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Super romantic with plenty of beautiful feminine and frilly details, this tunic-style dress is perfect for day or night. The swing shape is flattering and forgiving, but has just enough curve-hugging fabric to show off your figure. We’d love to see this paired with an over-the-knee boot for a day date, and with a sexy bootie for night. Wear this with a cropped jacket and tights if it’s chilly, or even over ultra-fitted skinny jeans. Priced at $108.</span></p>
<p><b>2. Sheer Pleated </b><a href="http://rstyle.me/n/cd6vdw7zv6" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"><b>Maxi</b></a></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Formal occasions, black tie affairs, and fancy dinners absolutely call for a dress like this one. Sexy, sheer, and opaque in all the right places, this maxi will have your date drooling over how smoking hot you look. Pair it with a platform, ankle bootie, or stiletto shoe. And if you need a little touch of shimmer, then opt for a choker, several dainty layered necklaces, a statement earring, or an armful of bangles. Priced at $98.</span></p>
<p><b>3. Drop Waist </b><a href="http://rstyle.me/n/cd6ves7zv6" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"><b>Mini</b></a></p>
<p><a href="http://rstyle.me/n/cd6ves7zv6" rel="nofollow"><span style="font-weight: 400;"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-160134" src="http://ecosalon.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/40299364_067_a-767x1024.jpg" alt="5 Sexy Valentine's Day Dresses to Get You in the Mood: Friday Finds" width="767" height="1024" srcset="https://storage.googleapis.com/wpesc/1/2017/02/40299364_067_a-767x1024.jpg 767w, https://storage.googleapis.com/wpesc/1/2017/02/40299364_067_a-468x625.jpg 468w, https://storage.googleapis.com/wpesc/1/2017/02/40299364_067_a-768x1025.jpg 768w, https://storage.googleapis.com/wpesc/1/2017/02/40299364_067_a-600x801.jpg 600w, https://storage.googleapis.com/wpesc/1/2017/02/40299364_067_a.jpg 1200w" sizes="(max-width: 767px) 100vw, 767px" /></span></a></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Sweet and sensual, this powder pink mini has lots of all-over texture and an ethereal lightness that’s totally flirty and perfect for Valentine’s Day. The long sheer sleeves add substance, while the overall look and design are excellent for wearing with tall boots, ankle booties, platforms, and even a strappy heel. This is another piece that would also work well with tights or skinny jeans for a completely transformed look. Priced at $148.</span></p>
<p><b>4. Criss Cross Crop </b><a href="http://rstyle.me/n/cd6vfi7zv6" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"><b>Set</b></a></p>
<p><a href="http://rstyle.me/n/cd6vfi7zv6" rel="nofollow"><span style="font-weight: 400;"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-160131" src="http://ecosalon.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/39527726_001_b-767x1024.jpg" alt="5 Sexy Valentine's Day Dresses to Get You in the Mood: Friday Finds" width="767" height="1024" srcset="https://storage.googleapis.com/wpesc/1/2017/02/39527726_001_b-767x1024.jpg 767w, https://storage.googleapis.com/wpesc/1/2017/02/39527726_001_b-468x625.jpg 468w, https://storage.googleapis.com/wpesc/1/2017/02/39527726_001_b-768x1025.jpg 768w, https://storage.googleapis.com/wpesc/1/2017/02/39527726_001_b-600x801.jpg 600w, https://storage.googleapis.com/wpesc/1/2017/02/39527726_001_b.jpg 1200w" sizes="(max-width: 767px) 100vw, 767px" /></span></a></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you’re looking to turn up the heat, then this is one of the sexiest dresses you could possibly put on. With a thigh-high slit, peek-a-boo lace, and a slice of midriff showing off your midsection, there’s certainly plenty of skin to be seen, despite the long sleeves and pencil length. This also happens to be two pieces, allowing you to get even more miles out of this skin-tight set. Wear the pieces together to create the illusion of a dress this Valentine’s Day, or mix and match as you please. A sexy heel or bootie would look best. Priced at $308.</span></p>
<p><b>5. Lavender V-Neck </b><a href="http://rstyle.me/n/cd6vge7zv6" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"><b>Romper</b></a></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Delicate and soft, you’d never know from first glance that this scalloped lavender romper isn’t actually a dress. Perfect for those of you who prefer the modesty of shorts, but like the look of a flirty skirt, this is a piece you’ll definitely want to check out for your upcoming date. Great for day or night, it would pair well with a jacket, booties, and lots of trending jewelry looks. The fit and flare silhouette is flattering, making it a look you’ll want to wear again and again. Priced at $54.</span></p>

<h3>1. Toasted Garlic-Butter Ravioli with Spinach via <a href="http://www.delish.com/cooking/recipe-ideas/recipes/a49016/toasted-garlic-butter-ravioli-with-spinach-recipe/" target="_blank">Delish</a></h3>
<p><em>Seasonal food spotlight: Spinach</em></p>
<p>If you live in some areas of the midwest—Kansas— or on the west coast—San Francisco—you could buy fresh, local spinach.</p><div id="inContentContiner"><!-- /4450967/ES-In-Content -->

<p>The following recipe is simple and flavor-rich. A perfect meal to make for your lover after work.</p>
<p>If you don’t live in an area that has fresh spinach, consider going to your local co-op and subbing another local green for spinach. Still no luck? Buy spinach delivered from the shortest distance.</p>
<p><em>Serves 2</em></p>
<p><strong>Ingredients</strong></p>
<p>16–18 oz. cheese ravioli<br />
kosher salt<br />
2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil<br />
2 tbsp. unsalted butter<br />
2 garlic cloves, minced<br />
1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes<br />
Freshly ground black pepper<br />
5 oz. baby spinach<br />
1/4 c. chopped parsley<br />
1/2 c. grated Parmesan</p>
<p><strong>Directions</strong></p>
<p>Bring a 12&#8243; sauté pan of water to a boil. Season with salt and prepare a rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper. Cook pasta to al dente, remove ravioli.</p>
<p>Place pasta on a sheet pan, set to medium heat. Add olive oil, butter and garlic; sauté until butter begins to bubble—about one minute. Add red pepper flakes, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper—stir with a rubber spatula.</p>
<p>Add half the ravioli and stir gently until well coated; continue. Flip ravioli gently to prevent sticking, cook until golden brown—about five minutes. Toss in spinach and garnish with parsley and grated cheese. Serve immediately.</p>

<h3>2. Tofu and Broccoli Quiche via <a href="http://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/recipe/tofu-and-broccoli-quiche" target="_blank">Whole Foods Market</a></h3>
<p><em>Seasonal food spotlight: Broccoli, onion and mushroom</em></p>
<p>If you’re lucky enough to live in Florida, the produce in this meal is in season. Don&#8217;t live in Florida? Mushrooms are available in Kansas and San Francisco; broccoli is in season in San Francisco; and New York state typically has local onion available via storage.</p>
<p>Although quiche doesn’t sound like a romantic meal, we like it because it’s light—<em>hint</em>—and flavorful.</p>
<p><em>Serves 6—perfect for morning-after leftovers</em></p>
<p><strong>Ingredients</strong></p>
<p>1/2 cup bulgur wheat<br />
pinch fine sea salt<br />
1 tablespoon light sesame oil, plus more for the pan<br />
1 yellow onion, chopped<br />
1 large broccoli crown, trimmed and cut into bite-size florets (about 3 cups total)<br />
1/4 pound crimini mushrooms, sliced (about 1 3/4 cups)<br />
1 1/2 (16-ounce) container firm tofu, drained<br />
2 tablespoons tahini<br />
1 tablespoon white miso or umeboshi paste<br />
1 1/2 tablespoon tamari</p>
<p><strong>Directions</strong></p>
<p>Preheat oven to 350°F. Oil an 9-inch pie plate. Bring one cup water to boil in a small saucepan—stir in bulgur and salt. Cover, lower heat and simmer until water is absorbed and bulgur is tender—12 to 15 minutes. Let cool slightly, then press onto bottom and partway up sides of the prepared pie plate.</p>
<p>Bake until slightly dried—about 12 minutes.   Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add broccoli, onion and mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are just tender—about 10 minutes.</p>
<p>Combine tofu, tahini, tamari and miso in a blender and purée until smooth. Pour into a large bowl, add vegetables and toss to combine.</p>

<h3>3. Dark Chocolate Orange Cake, <a href="http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/dark-chocolate-orange-cake" target="_blank">My Recipes</a></h3>
<p><em>Seasonal food spotlight: Orange</em></p>
<p>Sorry, strawberries. Although strawberries are in season in Florida, we included a fruit that’s available in at least two areas (San Francisco and Florida) this time of year: the orange.</p>
<p>We like this <a href="http://ecosalon.com/valentines-day-recipe-vegan-strawberry-mousse/">recipe</a> because it’s somewhat easy—emphasis on somewhat—and looks like it <a href="http://ecosalon.com/4-single-ladies-valentines-day-party-ideas/">tastes</a> amazing. A perfect, sweet end to an evening of great food.</p>
<p><em>Serves 6</em></p>
<p><strong>Ingredients </strong></p>
<p>Cooking spray<br />
3/4 cup powdered sugar<br />
3 large eggs<br />
2 tablespoons cornstarch<br />
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa<br />
2 tablespoons fresh orange juice<br />
1 tablespoon Triple Sec (orange-flavored liqueur)<br />
1 tablespoon hot water<br />
Dash of salt<br />
2 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped<br />
Powdered sugar (optional)<br />
Orange rind strips (optional)</p>
<p><strong>Directions</strong></p>
<p>Preheat oven to 350° F and coat an 8-inch springform pan with cooking spray. Line the bottom of the pan with parchment or wax paper. Wrap outside of pan with aluminum foil.</p>
<p>Place 3/4 cup sugar and eggs in a bowl and beat with a mixer at high speed—seven minutes.</p>
<p>Combine cornstarch and cocoa in a small bowl.</p>
<p>Place juice, liqueur, water, salt, and chocolate in a small glass bowl—microwave at high for one minute or until almost melted—stir every 20 seconds until smooth. Add cornstarch mixture and whisk until smooth.</p>
<p>Gently stir one-fourth of egg mixture into chocolate mixture and gently fold it into the remaining egg mixture. Scrape batter into prepared pan and place pan in a 13 x 9-inch baking pan—add hot water to larger pan to a depth of one inch.</p>
<p>Bake at 350º F for 20 minutes or until top is set. Remove cake pan from water and cool five minutes on a wire rack.</p>
<p>Loosen cake from sides of the pan using a narrow metal spatula—cool to room temperature.</p>
<p>Cover and chill at least four hours or overnight. Garnish with powdered sugar and rind just before serving, if desired.</p>

<p><i>Whether you plan on celebrating </i><a href="http://ecosalon.com/9-last-minute-personalized-valentines-gifts-perfect-for-v-day/"><i>Valentine’s Day</i></a><i> with your sweetheart, or just want keep the romance alive, we have some </i><a href="http://ecosalon.com/the-simplest-advice-to-rekindle-your-relationship-importance-of-date-night-dissected/"><i>cheap date ideas</i></a><i> to help you frugal couples out there.<br />
</i></p>
<p>Some folks think having a good time means spending bucketloads of money; other folks are less convinced. We know that it’s possible to have a romantic evening without breaking open your piggy bank. Whether you have only been dating for 3 months or have been shacked up for 3 years, we have got some cheap date ideas for those already frugal couples and those couples looking to bring a little more frugality into their lives.</p>
<h2>Outside the Box Cheap Date Ideas</h2>
<ol>
<li><b>Restaurant School Dinner </b>&#8211; If you are lucky enough to live near a University with a restaurant management program, or even a culinary school, look into whether they offer public dining facilities or not. Many do, as it’s often a critical component in their programs. You might be surprised at the quality of experience many of these programs can offer.</li>
<li><b>Back to Nature </b>&#8211; The dinner and a movie date concept is dead. Or at least it should be. Getting out into nature is the perfect way to spend time with your significant other. Whether you prefer a leisurely stroll along the water’s edge or a high-intensity hike, communing with nature is a great way to commune with each other. It&#8217;s also a mainstay among cheap date ideas.</li>
<li><b>BYOB Venues</b> &#8211; Depending on the liquor laws where you live, it may be possible (or necessary) for you to bring your own bottle of wine to dinner. This is a great way to save money on a nice meal. It’s not uncommon for the markup on a glass of wine to be 70 to 80 percent.</li>
<li><b>Make a Meal Together</b> &#8211; There’s nothing sexier than cooking together in the kitchen. Cooking at home is way cheaper than eating out, and the hands-on nature of cooking just might lead to some hands-on action in the kitchen.</li>
<li><b>Enrich Together </b>&#8211; Taking an art class, joining a book group, learning a language, taking up an instrument, or visiting a museum might all seem like solitary pursuits, but think again. There’s nothing sexier than someone who is smart, are we right? So, get smart and accomplished together!</li>
<li><b>Volunteer Together </b>&#8211; Dating doesn’t just have to be all about you as a couple. Couples who give back together might just be happier together. Studies show that volunteering increases happiness and can decrease depression. So, pick a cause like volunteering at the local animal shelter, nature preserve, or for Habitat for Humanity and make the most of your quality time together.</li>
