Grab your favorite cuddle buddy and cozy up to a Netflix marathon.

You'll need snacks, a nice chocolate aphrodisiac and some classy condoms for all that "chill"

2. Fancy Cocktail Night

Bonus points if you speak in British accents the entire evening.

Elevate your bartending skills with cool tools like a Mason Jar mixer and Moscow Mule mugs to real-deal sugar cubes and a killer variety of artisan liquors.

3. Ice Cream Social

Even if it's just an ice cream party for one. We won't judge.

Spoon decadent ice cream into an INGENIOUS chilled bowl and drizzle with chocolate sauce. Game over.

4. Apps & Zerts Night

À la Tom Haverford, bust out savory samplers and sweet treats for an evening of culinary globetrotting, all in your living room...or bedroom, whatever works.

5. Date Night For One

Because you deserve to pull out all the stops for a little "me" time.

Start with freshly-made guacamole, tortilla chips and craft beer, and end with super chocolatey Oreos or sprinkled cake balls*

*Yes, these delicious finger-food style treats do exist.

Then move to ultimate relaxation with a good body scrub, a fragrant candle and a beauty treatment or two.

And feel FREE to throw in some wine for good measure.

6. Movie Night

Fresh Caesar salad, pasta, champagne and a slice of chocolatey pie heaven? We're in love with this night already.

Solo cups, beer and balls are all you need (unfortunately "on fire" aim is not yet available for purchase)
