DIY Date Night | Gimme A Taste

Getting bored of your typical takeout and a night in? Check out this date night, a spin on a more classic evening. This date night will get you safely out of the house, enjoying each other’s company, and growing deeper with every moment. And all you need is a car (and even that’s optional) and a bandana!

Supplies:

• A car
• A blindfold/bandana

Instructions:

• Both partners pick three menu items from a favorite restaurant. Don’t tell your honey! (If you need to order ahead from this restaurant, do so before you leave and do a curbside pickup order) [NOTE: Want to spend the full night in? Order delivery instead!]
• Pick one person to drive first. The other person gets in the car blindfolded!
• Go and pick up your food! Then drive to a different location so your spouse can’t see where the food is from. (Pro-tip, bring a blanket along to cover the food so they can’t see the bags/branding!)
• Now, switch roles and pick up the other order!
• Once both orders are picked up (and neither spouse knows where the other person went), you can finish this date night either in the car or back at home.
• One spouse, put the blindfold back on.
• The non-blindfolded person then has to feed their partner the three menu items! Keep the blindfold on until they’ve guessed what they’re eating.
• Switch roles again!
• Once you’ve both guessed all three correctly, put the blindfold down and answer the questions below to take the date night deeper.

Questions To Take It Deeper:

• On a scale of 1-10, how well would you say I know you?
• What’s one thing I can do to be a better listener?
• How can I better express my feelings and emotions to you?
• How have you seen me change since the first time we met?
• What would you say is my biggest strength and weakness?
• Would you say you’re more in love with me now than when we first got together?
• What can we regularly do together to help grow our relationship?
• How have you seen our relationship change since we first got together?
• What’s one thing I might not know about you? (Think abstract & get creative! Fears, weird thoughts, childhood memories, etc.)
• If you and I could go anywhere in the world together for a month (all expenses paid) where would you want to go?
• What’s one thing you’ve missed a lot because of the pandemic?
• How can we keep each other accountable to adapting to our ever-changing world?
