How to Host Valentine's Day Movie Night

You may not be in love--but you can still celebrate the feeling. Since we love many things--including experiences, people and art--why not invite your single friends over for a taste of all three! Here are some tips for making it movie night at your place.

Things You'll Need

• TV and DVD player
• Romantic comedy movies
• Chocolate trivia questions
• Healthy comfort food
• Love Bug cocktail ingredients

Instructions

1. Invite your friends over for some LOVE! Make it an evening of celebrating things you love. Don't make a big deal out of the way you do the inviting; this is a telephone, email, text kind of thing. Just get the invites out there!

2. Cruise Netflix or your local video store for rentals in the Romantic Comedy genre.

   Here are some favorites:

   "My Big Fat Greek Wedding"
   "What Women Want"
   "Hitch"
   "50 First Dates"
   "Knocked Up"
   "Bridget Jones Diary"
   "Four Weddings and a Funeral"
   "Pretty Woman"
   "Sex and the City"
   "Notting Hill"

3. Put together an easy menu that's both comforting and healthy, like paninis (warm sandwiches), salad and super dark chocoalate for your sweet tooth! Google keywords "panini recipes."

4. Print out trivia questions about chocolate and ask your crew during intermissions. Google keywords "chocolate trivia" to find a million questions to ask.

5. Whip up some Love Bug cocktails: rose sparkling wine with a half-shot of Chambord and a half-shot of scotch whiskey (single malt if you have any around).
