A month or two ago, I came across a company on social media that was posting videos of hot cocoa bombs. I love hot chocolate, and the bombs looked so fun, I immediately wanted some of my own. So I was really excited when a local bakery, that I follow on Instagram, posted that they were making hot cocoa bombs and would be selling them soon!

Date night is a great way for couples to connect and make their relationship a priority throughout every stage of life so we hope to provide great ideas for date night that are less expensive and still just as fun.

Read moreOur Favorite Davis County Chinese - Joy Luck
In our house, we consider Joy Luck to have the best Chinese food in Davis County. When we lived in Bountiful, we ate there on a regular basis.

(We're still looking for a comparable restaurant up north and if you have any suggestions, we're open to trying them out.) But if we're going on a date and are craving Chinese food, you'll often find us at Joy Luck.
