Romantic Tips for the Holiday Season

1. Serve your man a steaming cup of hot chocolate -- with extra marshmallows -- when he comes in from shoveling the snow. Or better yet, join him outside to play in the snow.

2. Arrange for a romantic sleigh ride through the streets of your city or a nearby field. Cuddle up under the blanket to keep warm.

3. Celebrate crossing items off your holiday shopping list by stopping for a steaming cup of flavored coffee and some conversation.

4. Fill each other's stockings with sexy gifts like massage lotion and lingerie. Carve out some time to actually use them!

5. Share a hot bubble bath on a cold winter night. For extra bubbles, sip champagne while you soak.

6. Start planning a trip somewhere warm. Whether you actually go or not, it's fun to fantasize about escaping the cold and lying on the beach.

7. Hang mistletoe in a spot you have to pass frequently -- and don't go by without a smooch!

8. Rent classic movies, build a fire in the fireplace, and share a cozy evening at home.

9. Volunteer at a soup kitchen or homeless shelter. You'll get to spend quality time together, plus you'll realize how fortunate you really are.

10. Bake your husband's favorite holiday cookies -- and ask him to be the "chief cookie-tester."

11. Mark the end of the old year and the beginning of the new by opening a bottle of wine and reminiscing about the events of the past year and sharing what you hope for in the coming year.

12. Leave each other little gifts (movie tickets, candy, a CD) in unexpected places like a briefcase, the car, or on his pillow.
