After breakfast, get some homemade coffee or hot chocolate and snuggle up on the couch with your favorite blankets. Choose a series of movies that you both love or pick a new one you both want to watch, make sure to have some snacks at hand. A simple yet classic date idea, this is the perfect way to reconnect, enjoy each other's company, and have some downtime.

The cooking process can be a fun and intimate experience, and the end result will be a delicious homemade dinner that you both contributed to. After dinner, you can end the night with a board game or continue watching more movies. The point is to take time out to just be with each other without the distractions of the outside world.
Preparation steps:
- The beauty of this date idea is that it requires minimal preparation -- all you really need is a great selection of movies and some snacks. The other highlights are the meals. Decide what breakfast and dinner meals you'd like to cook together and prepare the ingredients beforehand to save time. You might also want to lay out some cozy blankets on the couch and prepare some popcorn to enjoy while watching the movies.
- Apart from that, make sure your home is clean and comfortable, since you'll be spending most of the day there. Double-check that you have all the necessary ingredients for breakfast and dinner before the day, so you don’t need to run out at the last minute.
