Valentine's Day Love Songs 1

Add caption

Whether you are single or in a relationship, you are in love or heartbroken, music can always uplift and comfort you.
If you are like me you must have different favorite musical genres you like listening depending on your current mood or emotional state.

Love is the base and the source of inspiration for most musical pieces. It's hard to imagine a couple or a romantic date without music.

A year ago I wrote a post about my favorite playlist of Valentine's Day Love Songs. This year I decided to recreate my post but this time I asked my followers to send me their favorite Love Songs of all times and what I received was beyond my expectations.

Valentine's Day Love Songs

Love is...

You may have never heard or tried this chewing gum, but Love is... is a chewing gum that takes me back to my childhood. This chewing gum was especially popular in the 1990s when I was a kid. We were so excited to open and find a new liner inside and would collect them and have competition games with those papers.

But today's post is about my favorite playlist of beautiful love songs that you can play on Valentine's Day and not only. 
A romantic date, a wedding anniversary can just be fine too.
I have included a song in Spanish, Portuguese and even Armenian as I think that music is a universal language and may touch your feelings and bring the right emotions without you even understanding the language.

So, here's My Playlist of Beautiful Valentine's Day Love Songs that I would like to share with you

1. Paul Mccartney - My Valentine




2. La La Land - City of Stars



3. Salvador Sobral - Amor Pelos Dois



4. Amaia y Alfred - Tu Cancion



5. Katie Melua - The Closest Thing to Crazy



6. Elton John - Something About The Way You Look Tonight



7. Aladdin - A Whole New World



8. Bratsch - Armenian Waltz

3 - An Adventure is Calling

Leah from An Adventure is Calling is a travel blogger who loves to explore the world (near and far) together with her husband and her little daughter and shares with her adventures and travel tips and tricks.

4 - Big Family Blessings

I came across Amanda's blog on Pinterest and her story immediately caught my eye. She is a single homeschooling, blogging and adventuring mom of 6 blessings. She blogs about her adventures and chaos through life's joys and challenges and shows how one can live life to the fullest embracing the gift of each new day. 

What I love about her mindset is that still heart-broken, she decided to turn her energy towards raising her children to rebuild their trust in people and promises so that one day they can again believe that not everyone they love will leave them.

Valentine's Day Romance Movie - Me Before You

If you are looking for a romantic movie to watch together with your partner on Valentine's Day, "Me Before You" can be the best choice. It is the most powerful romantic drama I can recall having ever watched. 
It is a sad, touching, but light, even a funny movie with a non-cliche ending. Watching only the trailer is enough to make you emotional and make you burst into tears.

"Me Before You" is the last romantic movie I went to the cinema to watch and undoubtedly the best romantic movie I have ever watched. It is not a standard romantic movie as it goes against the most romantic movie stereotypes of happy endings. I remember myself leaving the cinema heartbroken and kind of devastated at the sad ending carrying with me a handful of tissues. 

Based on the popular novel by Jojo Moyes with the same name, the movie depicts a bittersweet romance between Lou (starring Emilia Clarke from "Game of Thrones") and Will Trainor (starring Sam Claflin from "The Hunger Games" saga).

 Lou is a funny and chatty young woman moving from one job to another helping her family make both ends meet until she comes across with a job to take care of a paraplegic.

Will Trainor, formerly a wealthy young banker and sportsman, was left paralyzed from an accident and can't accept his life now.

The polar opposite personalities, especially Will's arrogance and sarcastic outlook on life, makes them dislike each other at the beginning, but then they become friends and finally fall in love with each other. And what starts out as a rocky relationship, blossoms into something special.

What I like most about this movie is that unlike most romantic movies it doesn't use physical intimacy as a clutch but rather goes deep and focuses more on the personal and emotional connection between Lou and Will. He encourages her to try new things and break out of her shell, she encourages him to try to love life again.

Another highlight of the film is the outstanding acting and charming characters. Lou, with her infectious smile and slight awkwardness, Will, with his facial expressions and attractive eyebrow cock.

And when everything seems very romantic with Will treating Lou to exotic holidays and glamorous nights out, the viewers feel a certain unease and learn about Will's determination to live on his own terms or not at all.

Have you read the book "Me Before You" and its sequel "After You"?

Have you watched the movie? How do you like it?

February 3 - Quick Valentine's Day Meal Plan

Valentine's Day is around the corner and though you don't need to wait for that day to express your love and affection to your partner and lover, it is just another opportunity to do it.

Celebrating Valentine's Day at home has lots of benefits. 
Firstly, you don't have to pay for babysitting and an expensive meal at the restaurant. Secondly, you can enjoy a quiet time at home together with your partner.

But what if you are a working wife and mom? It means you hardly catch up with the house chores and cleaning and cooking. You are already exhausted, physically and mentally, weekend days never seem enough to manage your to-do lists.

If you are looking for some easy and quick Valentine's Day meal plan ideas that are not time-consuming and require minimum efforts, here I present you my all-time favorite Valentine's Day Meal Plan to enjoy for a night in.

BREAKFAST

Smoothie -select red fruits and berries like strawberries, raspberries, cherries, pomegranates

Coffee -served in heart-shaped decorated cups or mugs

Pancakes - sprinkled with red sauce, decorated with whipped cream and berries

milkshake/smoothie

coffee

pancakes

LUNCH

Sushi - Order some sushi/maki, sushi salad or even a sushi boat.
 If you are not a sushi lover, opt for an exotic dish from your favorite cuisine. Replace the dish on your favorite china and enjoy it under the candlelight with some soft music in the background.

sushi cake

DINNER

Cheese and Wine - Cheese with cranberries, cheese with walnuts, smoked cheese, blue cheese, cheese with almonds, cheese with chocolate...the list doesn't end. 
Pick up your favorite cheese, serve it with dried and fresh fruits, nuts, crackers, grapes, olives, whatever your imagination craves for.

Chocolate Fondue - For the dessert, slice or chop your favorite fruits, you can use the heart-shaped cutter or you can place the fruits on a wooden stick. Enjoy your fondue next to a fireplace.
