Valentine's Day is right around the corner, so if you're tired of doing the same old thing every year, look no further! These recipes are not only fun but easy to make! As everyone does Valentine's Day differently, I thought I would include recipes for everything. Going in order, breakfast comes first and dessert comes last, so if you want to skip ahead to find the after dinner munches, skip to the end!

Breakfast:

Valentine's Day Overnight Oats with Raspberry Chia Jam

This one looks amazing and I'm not even a fan of oats. The colors in the glass are also aesthetically pleasing.

Sweet and Simple Valentine's Day Breakfasts

This one has 6 different recipes, I couldn't just pick my one favorite! This one drew my attention because of the "simple" in the title!

Easy Valentine's Day Breakfast

Okay, so I'll be honest. This one looks pretty self explanatory but I chose it simply because it is a heart shaped arrow with bacon and eggs.

Lunch:

Heart Shaped Pizzas (with heart shaped pepperoni!!!)

This one is the cutest dish of all, simply because those little pepperoni is in heart shapes too.

Heart Shaped Four Cheese Ravioli

How cute it is that these are arranged to make a four leaf clover!

Heart Shaped Chicken Hand Pies

These are make ahead meals, but because they are hand pies, I considered them more of an easy, to go lunch option.

Dinner:

Heart Meatloaf Muffins

Thanks to my boyfriend, I am extremely found of meatloaf. These little muffin sized ones are adorable!http://b-inspiredmama.com/kids-in-kitchen-meatloaf...

Heart Shaped Hamburgers

This one is stretching it, but for that meat lover in your life it's a perfect idea!http://happylittleart.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_arch...

XOXO salad

This one is pretty self explanatory as well. Use cookie cutters to cute the shapes of the cheese and of the cucumbers.http://spaceshipsandlaserbeams.com/blog/party-food...

Dessert:

Deep Fried Chocolate Covered Strawberries

Holy wow. This looks like heaven. Can I deep fry everything?

After Party:

Love Martini

I love the iridescent red liquid in the glass. it's mesmerizing.

Homemade Wine Gummies

I don't know about you, but these look like something I would do all the time, not just Valentine's Day!

Hugs and Kisses Martini

Wow, this kind of makes my tongue feel too sweet and syrupy just from looking at the picture, but hey to each his own.https://homeiswheretheboatis.net/2014/02/12/hugs-k...

Miscellaneous:

Mozzarella Cheese Filled Hearts – with Roasted Red Pepper Pesto

This one is in this category because it's more of a snack or appetizer than anything. But still a cool idea! I looooove me some cheese sticks!

Top Pinned Valentine's Day Ideas

While this one includes more than just recipes, this little fortune cookie out of fruit roll ups was my favorite! Use the link to explore the other ideas, though!

Heart Shaped Quesadillas

This one is in the snack category because it was made with cheese, but I think this would make a good lunch or dinner if you added meat and other sides!

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
