My fiance is deployed, so this is my first Valentine's day without him. Usually this state of affairs would leave me mascara streaked in front of Titanic with a mammoth box of Cellar Door Chocolates and a box of tissues, but not this Valentine's Day! Hillbilly Tea, one of my favorite local places, is hosting a Valentine's Tea dinner, and I am gathering up my best girlfriend and attending. The menu looks fabulous, the place is fantastic, and the price is reasonable.
The Education Department at the Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft, located at 715 W. Main Street, has planned two upcoming workshops, one for children and one for adults, themed around Valentine's Day.

Wouldn’t it be nice to undress your Valentine without sitting through a crowded dinner that doesn’t provide any real intimacy, let alone a hot meal after the kitchen gets backed-up because everyone in town wanted the day to be special... so they all did the same thing? Cirque Airotic, Louisville’s only aerial burlesque troop, will be showing a little skin without making you pay for it with your sanity.
Asiatique (1767 Bardstown Road) announces a special Sunday Brunch on February 13th and Valentine's Day dinner on February 14th. Reservations are required, so be sure to plan your perfect Valentine's meal soon!

Does the thought of a heart-shaped box of chocolate make your stomach turn? Let’s face it, unless you’re fourteen, Valentine’s Day is just another day. The cards are corny and roses are overpriced and cliche. I’m in one-hundred percent agreement that I don’t need one day a year to express my love, but as parents and lovers we’re obligated nonetheless. This year, send your sappy greeting in an animal-inspired package from the Louisville Zoo (and help some furry friends eat while you’re at it).
I've attended the Valentine’s Day Romantic Retreat (aka the Valentine's Hike) at Jefferson Memorial Forest for several years. Advertised as "Give your sweetie the moon, the stars, and all of Louisville," that's an apt description. It takes place at the Horine Conference Center at the Forest which, being the second highest spot in the county, offers an unrivaled view of Louisville from the back deck.
