Valentine’s Day is this Saturday. If you haven’t planned a special day for your loved one, you still have time to come up with something that’s both fun and special — and look as if you’ve been thinking about making plans for months. Here are a few suggestions to add a bit of romance and frivolity to your Valentine’s Day, a day that can be cold and snowy — or warm and fuzzy because you made it the best one you ever had.

• Surprise her or him with a romantic night in a B&B or historic inn. This could be the start of a once-a-year tradition.
