    mine's not that keen on sweet things either although he does like dark choc. how about a hamper of savoury things instead of sweet - nuts, crisps, etc in red packets. does he like chilli? if he does - some chilli sauce?

    Ooh thanks for this link, Ive just ordered some of these for my hubby for Valentines Day. We've talked about going away, or going for a meal, but to save some money, we have decided to have a meal in at home and my OH is gonna do the cooking!! (Yes, I nearly died of shock!!) :rotfl:

    So, I've ordered some of these saucy little love hearts, and if anyone is looking for a sweet simple idea, Ive ordered him one of these hearts as well - http://www.heartstringshop.co.uk/ I saw these on a little market stall in Covent Garden when I was in London before Xmas, and I made a note of their website to get some of them throughout the year for different occasions. here are some piccies - http://www.heartstringshop.co.uk/inc/pdetaili?pid=114
    You're so very special, I wish I was special :dance:
