Thinking in the Shower?

Like a lot of people, I get some of my best ideas in the shower, when it isn't exactly convenient to write them down.

So I was quite pleased to come across Aqua Notes, a waterproof notepad that attaches to the shower wall, making it easy to jot down those flashes of inspiration before they are forgotten.

If you're like me, you've already figured out that these can be used to exchange friendly messages with your significant other. In fact, the same company makes a slightly more expensive version, Aqua Love Notes. The difference is that the love notes version comes with colored pencils.

Whether you use this to take notes on the next Great American Novel, or to invite your sweetie to a romantic rendezvous, I can see this item becoming an indispensable bath time accessory.
 

Cute Little Things

There are so many little ways to be affectionate and romantic on a daily basis. And if you can be cute at the same time -- go for it!

The heart shape is a classic symbol of love. Even a grocery list will seem friendly when it's written on something like this. These are sticky on the back, so you can leave friendly comments just about anywhere.

If all hearts all the time is just too much, mixing it up with flowers and speech balloons adds an extra element of surprise.

Making heart-shaped pancakes and eggs doesn't take any extra time, and is a great way to start the morning. The kids will love these. I tried a pan with heart-shaped depressions, but it was impossible to flip the pancakes. This is easier because you can just lift the forms up.

I haven't yet bought any duct tape roses for my husband. But I think this is a hilarious idea, and perfect for the manly do-it-yourselfer in your life.
