Extensive research shows that buying flowers is not what women really want for gifts. Instead, you're supposed to spend time together doing and creating something - an experience to remember.
With this research in hand, Jami and I have been making Truffles on Valentines day for several years. I only buy flowers if I have something to make up for :). Just kidding. I buy flowers just often enough to keep her guessing.
This year's truffles start with ganache:
1. White chocolate with vanilla bean and orange zest.
2. Dark chocolate with peanut butter and vanilla bean.
3. Lavender infused milk chocolate with fresh honey (from Mom's bees in Eureka). http://www.hvmag.com/Hudson-Valley-Magazine/September-2013/Honey-Lavender-Truffles-Recipe/
