Not all waiting impatiently for Valentine's Day, but Valentine's Day is always Valentine's Day. All over the world this event is manifested by adopting different symbolic languages.
In Japan February 14th is the day of declaration of love girls to boys. We usually offer two types of chocolates:
* "Tomo choco" real chocolate for Valentine's Day led by girl at her beloved
* "Giri choco" distributed by the girls to men in love are not as colleagues, boss and friends (who reciprocate the gesture of giving white chocolate on March 14 during the "White Day").
In South Korea customs are similar, but who does not receive anything either February 14 or March 14, he went the next month (April 14) in a restaurant to eat spaghetti with cuttlefish ink complaining of his own solitude.
In South America February 14 is celebrated the "Día del Amor y la Amistad." The same day players are lovers and friends.
In Gran Bretagna e in Olanda i messaggi romantici, i biglietti e i fiori vengono inviati in modo del tutto anonimo.
In Spagna si usa recapitare alla persona amata un mazzo di rose rosse, passionali come solo gli spagnoli sanno essere.
E mentre nel Galles gli innamorati si scambiano piccoli cucchiai decorati con lucchetti per confermare l'apertura del cuore verso il proprio partner, nei Paesi dell'Est gli uomini regalano vestiti alle donne. Se queste accettano, dovranno poi contraccambiare sposando il donatore.
E in Italia? Sono anni che i ristoranti propinano agli innamorati menu speciali e atmosfere da favola per l’occasione, ma molti preferiscono trascorrere il giorno più romantico dell’anno at home planning a fine dinner.
But in the evening a special occasion like Valentine's Day should be armed with a little 'fantasy to create the right atmosphere.
To create the right atmosphere
1. Do not spend all your time in front of the stove ... Organize it all before, or better still preparing for dinner with your partner, to make it intriguing evening.
2. For the tablecloth, floral arrangements or dishes using red, pink and cream color - which, according to Feng Shui, stimulate romance. Fresh flowers are fine, but to bring something truly original, sprinkle the cloth with rose petals accompanied by tapes clear to be used to personalize the candle holder.
3. To create an intimate atmosphere and an environment suffused place small lights or turn on some candles
4. The light touch to the table is given by silver cutlery, crystal glasses and silk tablecloths.
5. The perfumed oils ignite the passion and unleashed sensuality. It can range from the scent of rose, jasmine and patchouli.
6. Choosing the right music makes the perfect dinner by candlelight.
