‘Tis the season to be jolly - and nothing screams cozy winters than enjoying a cup of coffee while cuddling with your significant other. With the winter air and glistening Christmas lights already setting the mood for the best time of the year, why not make it extra special and plan an indoor date?

Although you might find that a lot of your favorite outdoor destinations are closed during the holiday season, that doesn’t mean you can’t have a good time with your partner! Winter vibes call for an indoor date and lucky for you, here are some great ideas to spend some quality time with that special someone.

1. Order In

Rather than eating out, why not order in? Most eateries are always open for takeaways or delivery when it comes to the holiday season. Browse through their menu online to order something special that is both to you and your partner’s taste. And while you’re at it, set the table and play some soft music—it’s a time for a Festivus for the rest of us, after all.

2. An Indoor Picnic

Picnics are a great way to escape the hustle and bustle of the city for some peace and nature, but did you know that you can enjoy an indoor picnic as well? Simply clear out the living area and place a blanket and some cushions on the floor before putting up some fairy lights, and voila! Both you and your loved one will be snacking on fruits and dinner treats with an indoor picnic and no one will ever be the wiser.

3. Host a Candlelight Dinner

Show off your cooking skills by hosting a romantic dinner. They say food is the way to the heart and indeed it is. When you cook for your loved one, the effort, resources, and most of all the love you put into the cooking do end up paying dividends and make it a night to remember. So, call your partner up and invite them to come in their best dress while you prepare a fancy meal for the both of you to enjoy.
