Ideas for Valentine's Day in Catonsville

Valentine's Day is only a few days away and if you haven't thought of what to do or buy yet, there is still time. We spent some time checking with some local businesses about what they have going on for Valentine's Day.

• This is the first Valentine's Day for Ken's , which opened this fall. The store is filled with affordable and high quality Valentine's Day gift ideas, including small rose-shaped chocolates complete with stems, as well as little stuffed animal keepsakes. The chocolate room in the back of the store features tons of chocolate, which you can put in one of the many heart-shaped boxes for purchase. The store is still accepting orders for chocolate-covered strawberries, which can be picked up starting Saturday. Boxes and candies can be purchased for less than $5.
• has the traditional array of roses and traditional arrangements that can still be ordered. The store is also stocking cards and stuffed animals so you can purchase all you need in one place. What is new this year are beautiful orchids in different colors, which the store is selling for under $40. Store owner Allison Glascock said the orchids are selling well, but many people are ordering traditional things, such as a dozen roses.
• is open on Monday, Feb. 13 for those who can't go out on Valentine's Day. According to the restaurant's Facebook page, there are still a few reservations available for Valentine's Day, as well as Monday, Feb. 13.
