Dean's Top Ten for Valentine's Day

Valentine’s Day is for anyone who loves life. Whether you are celebrating with someone special or celebrating your “joie de vie” (French for joy of life), it’s a fun day to treat yourself.

The top three Valentine’s gifts, according to the National Retail Foundation, are greeting cards, flowers, and candy. We’ve got you covered at Dean’s- from roses to bouquets, chocolate, candy hearts, and cards.

But let’s not stop there. A special meal makes the holiday really special. Sure, you could go out and enjoy one of Osseo’s great restaurants. But if you’re staying in, we have some suggestions that are sure to please.

Valentine’s Top Ten at Home, by Dean’s:

Steak please. Our butcher is featuring steak and cutting fresh steaks daily. Angus pride meat is the best and what we feature.
Fondue. A fun dessert involves melting chocolate and presenting a fun mix of things to dip, including fruit, pretzels, marshmallows, cookies.
Heart Shape Pizza. Easy to make with frozen bread dough. We recently added a specialty item, Enrico’s Pizza Sauce. Vary toppings by individual preferences.
Fruit. Who wouldn’t want that special someone to feed you grapes!
Candy and Flowers. Something sweet and something pretty brightens the holiday.
Charcuterie and Cheese. A platter of sliced meat and cheese, paired with wine, is special and makes a great light meal. Find sausages, Kretschmar sliced cheeses and meats in the deli department.
Shrimp Cocktail. Pairs great with champagne! You’ll find them in the frozen meat section.
Spaghetti and Meatballs. Who can forget the Disney movie scene of eating noodles together!
Movie Night. Dean’s has new releases, classic movies, and family favorites. Our DVD’s are only $1.99 to rent! Pair with popcorn and candy, curl up on the couch together.
Cheesecake! The most decadent delicious dessert is made for Valentines. We have several options, including single cheesecake slices in our Grab & Go case, and whole frozen cheesecakes in our frozen food section.
