Certain dinnerware is best bought in bulk! Not only is it cheaper but for staple items that tend to break or are necessities, why not stock up? I came across this wonderful deal from Instawares that offers Traditional Japanese Sauce Dishes for a great price.

The reason why this particular deal appealed to me is I am a big proponent of condiments. I love sauces and am a dipping queen. I already own some cute sauce dishes that accompany my plate with every meal. Plus with Thanksgiving just around the corner I figure I could use these dishes to hold votive candles, for sauces, perhaps even as adorable little give aways. The point is a deal is a deal and thinking outside the box offers endless options.

Here is what you would get:

• 48 sauce dishes
• 3 inch in diameter

Was $51.36 NOW $26.67 ( you save $24.69)

What can I say, I have a love jones right now. So I was thinking of some good ideas for Valentine’s Day besides or in addition too, getting your loved one: flowers, chocolate or candy.

So I thought it would be sweet if you maybe made breakfast in bed! Extra love points if you made the pancakes, heart-shaped! Women love details (seriously, we do) and its been my experience that it’s all the “little” attempts at chivalry that we remember best. For example, the pancakes might taste like poop, but the heart details and the effort will brand a memory for eternity.

My second idea was for maybe younger, newer couples. You could cook a homemade dinner and end it with a sloppy but adorable heart-shaped cake in her or his favorite flavor. Plus, feel free to spice up the dinner with flavored heart-shaped Jello shots, maybe by the end of the meal you can wear the chocolate from the heart cake in lieu of eating it! Hey, I’m just saying…

My point is this second plan is not for the faint of heart and these contrived holidays are only as good as you want them to be!
