I have quite a few Valentine's days behind me, but the one I have the fondest memories of was when I was 10.

February 14, 1999, was a year my parents gave in to peer pressure. They bought us a color TV for Valentine's day. To celebrate this special gift we each picked a favorite movie, mine was There's a Zulu on my stoep. I can still remember the day like it was yesterday.

This day had nothing to do with kisses, plastic flowers or chocolates but was filled with love and brought my family together.

While flowers and chocolates are still the most common gifts of the day, more people are looking for something for the whole family to enjoy.

I know your excitement will be short-lived after unwrapping a beautifully wrapped gift only to find an iron or cleaning appliance even if you know you need it. However, there are plenty of appliances that can be a perfect romantic Valentine's gift.

MHC has plenty of those and you can get them at an affordable price. Not every woman like flowers and chocolates, why not get her something she can use. Here's how appliances can help you spice up things this Valentine's day.

Blender

Is your partner super careful with what goes down their mouth? they won't start a day without a great, blended fruity or vegetable smoothie? Get them a blender with a built-in bottle. It is convenient and easy to use. Have a smoothie on a go!

Toaster

Buying your partner a toaster for V-day won't be such a bad idea. I mean there's nothing like a smell of crispy slices of bread to start a successful day.

If your significant other loves a fresh smell of hot crispy toast in the morning get a modern digital technology toaster. If she is a mother, she probably uses a toaster all day long. Buy her a toaster with a cancel/stop function, adjustable browning control and defrost function for easy usage. You may now enjoy a hot crispy toast with your entire family.

 Coffee Maker

We sometimes get lost in our world and forget to appreciate those that we care about the most. Luckily, all it takes to make it right is a great cup of coffee and quality time together. This is the best gift you get to give to a coffee lover.

Create memories and show them how much they mean to you in a way they may not expect. For more V-day specials visit our website,www.mhcworld.co.za.
