Valentine's Day is coming up, and so are planned hangouts. That means there could be a big chance that you and your friends are wondering what movie to watch. One great movie to watch for Valentine's Day is “The Notebook.” This movie is highly recommended for its intricate details and amazing acting. It involves a great love between two characters. There are many iconic scenes and voice lines that you may have heard or seen before. If you have not seen any spoilers, then I deeply recommend watching “The Notebook” with your friends or significant other for Valentine's Day.

Valentines Day is a super fun day you can spend with friends who you truly care about. Some activities you can do are going to the beach, enjoying the view, and painting something that reminds you of your friendship. You will make memories together. You can also do an indoor picnic. Cut up fruit and make something tasty to eat. What makes it fun is that you are enjoying time together. Valentines is not just for couples, you can have a day for you and your friends who you really love.

Valentine’s Day is the perfect time for a dessert that feels extra special, and red velvet lava cake is a perfect way to match the vibes. Its rich red color gives off a fun, romantic vibe, and when you cut into the warm cake, gooey chocolate “lava” flows out. The mix of chocolate and tangy red velvet tastes amazing, especially with ice cream or whipped cream. Whether you share it or enjoy it on your own, red velvet lava cake makes Valentine’s Day feel extra sweet and memorable.

Since Valentine's Day is coming up, there are many places to go, such as the park and fancy restaurants. But my favorite spot to hang out at is Starbucks. Starbucks is very popular and many people love its drinks and food. One specific drink I recommend is the pink drink with vanilla cold foam, which gives the satisfaction of strawberries. To top it off, there is a Valentine’s Day cakepop currently in season.

Valentine's day is more than just love. It is a day to spend with any of your loved ones. You can do many activities with them, like watching movies. A great recommendation is “La La Land.” It is a musical that portrays a romantic love story while pursuing their dream careers. The soundtrack consists of Jazz and is really good.

A chocolate cake is a classic dessert for Valentine’s Day because it tastes rich and sweet. The smell of chocolate fills the room and helps create a warm feeling. People often decorate the cake with hearts or fresh berries to make it look festive. Some bakers like to add extra layers or fillings to make the cake even more delicious. It also makes a thoughtful homemade gift for someone you care about.

Valentine's Day is the time of the year you get to go out and spend time with your loved ones! One idea that I have is that you should go to Hudson Cookies at Irvine Spectrum. Their cookies are delicious! However, one specific cookie that I recommend eating is the chocolate chip cookie sandwich with vanilla buttercream. The crunchy texture of the chocolate chip cookie, the slight saltiness, the soft and creamy texture of the buttercream, and the rich and sweet flavor are absolutely delicious.

"How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days" is a hilarious romantic comedy. It is filled with funny moments. This movie is a perfect pick for Valentine's Day because it balances great humor with a sweet and classic romance. I highly recommend this movie. Watch it and enjoy a sweet treat with your loved ones.

Baking is a great idea for a Valentine’s day activity because it is more than just making treats, but it is a way to share a meaningful experience. It is a very thoughtful and creative way to express love while creating stronger bonds through teamwork.

There are many great cafes and diners you could go to on this special day. Steel Craft is the perfect place to hangout with your friends and loved ones on Valentines Day. At Steel Craft you can do many things like play games, walk around, talk, or just grab a bite to eat.

Porto’s Bakery is one of the most popular places in Southern California to get treats for Valentine’s Day. mhey offer special seasonal items like red velvet cakes and raspberry almond heart cookies. People also love to pick up their famous potato balls to share with friends and families. My favorite is their mango mousse cake with a taste of sweet mixed with a little bit of sour. It is a good idea to arrive early in the morning before the best desserts sell out!

A fun dessert to make is chocolate-covered strawberries. They take less than 30 minutes to make. All you have to do is wash the strawberries thoroughly and dry them off with a paper towel. Then dip them in milk or dark chocolate using skewers or by holding them by the stem. After allowing them in harden in the cold fridge, you get a creamy chocolate shell. To make them more appealing to the eye, you can drizzle white chocolate on top. This dessert is simple yet delicious.

If you are looking for a dessert for Valentines Day, strawberry shortcake is a great choice. Its classic red and white layers look pretty without requiring professional decorating skills. You get the crunch of the sugary biscuit exterior, followed by the soft, buttery middle. The taste is a mix of fresh, tart berries and a rich, airy whipped cream. Since it is light and easy to assemble, it's a great way to end the meal on the sweet side.

The movie 27 Dresses 27 is one of my favorite rom-coms to watch during this time. This movie can make you laugh and feel happy unlike any other rom-coms. It was directed by Anne Fletcher who has directed many other rom-coms. This movie is about a girl named Jane, who has been a bridesmaid many times but never a bride.

An extraordinary place that you can go to on this special day is Disneyland. Disneyland is a wonderful place filled with magic and excitement, featuring Disney characters and fun music. There are rides, food, and even shows to attend or participate in. The scenery is beautiful, and the food there is scrumptious, which makes it an amazing place to go with your loved ones. The vibe and overall experience make it a great place to attend.

Creating a dessert charcuterie board is a total game-changer because it takes the pressure off of being a perfect baker. Instead of being stuck with just one flavor, you get to pile a tray with a mix of everything from fudgy brownies to tart strawberries. It looks like a work of art on the table, and your friends will definitely want to take pictures of it before they start snacking. The best part is that there is no "real" cooking involved, just pick out the best treats at the store. You can also add salty stuff like pretzels or nuts to balance out all the sugar. It is the ultimate low-stress way to look like a pro host while making sure there is something for everyone to enjoy.

"10 Things I Hate About You" is a fun movie that retells an old William Shakespeare story in modern day high school. The movie is full of funny moments. Many people still love this film today because it shows that it is okay to be yourself..
-Ava Montes (8th)
Something you can do with friends or loved ones on this day, is to try to bake or cook something with them. It could be fun. Cooking and baking can also be chaotic when you are doing it for the first time and this can bring on the laughs! After it is done, you can just eat the final result.

A great place to take your valentine is a sushi bar called nova kitchen & bar. They are rated 4.7 stars and are a perfect restaurant to take your date to. This restaurant has the perfect options that are unique and memorable. I've been to this restaurant and I say that it is quite memorable
And hard to forget. This restaurant has great scenery as well as good food. I suggest you go to this restaurant, but it is pricey.

“To All the Boys: P.S. I Still Love You,” is a great movie to watch with friends on Valentine's day because it is a fun and sweet story about figuring out your feelings. The movie is about a girl named Lara Jean who has to choose between two boys, which makes it exciting for you and your friends to pick which guys are better and figure out who Lara Jean should be with. It also shows that being honest with your friends and family is just as important as falling in love. The movie also has a really cool and colorful style that makes it feel like a party just by turning it on. You will love seeing all the cute outfits Lara Jean wears and the funny things her younger sister Kitty says. It is the best way to spend the holiday laughing and talking with your best friends.With pretty colors, upbeat music, and a happy ending, it is the perfect movie to enjoy together while eating Valentine's snacks.
