Date Night Playlist

I love a good date night, but almost more than that I love a good romantic song. I’m such a sap. The cheesier the better. Luckily I live in the south and we get romantic country songs in bulk, but I’ll listen to any romantic song over and over again. I’ll limit the country songs for this playlist..
Here are some of my favorites:

Die a Happy Man-Thomas Rhett 
My new favorite. I heard him sing this live on Saturday, and I’m pretty sure my heart exploded.

Latch (Acoustic) -Sam Smith
From his EP not the album. This is the best version.

Wicked Game – Live at Killkenny Arts Festival – James McMorrow
SO good.

Tupelo Honey – Van Morrison
Oldie but goodie.

Hold You in my Arms – Ray LaMontagne
Another excellent song.

Songbird-Fleetwood Mac
I’m sure there is a deeper meaning that I don’t get because you know…Fleetwood. I just love this song though.

Accidentally in Love – Counting Crows
Yeah, they use it in Shrek 2. Judge away.

More Than Anyone -Gavin DeGraw
Gavin. Oh Gavin.

Ok and if you want the most romantic song of all time you have to work for it. There is an awesome band in Atlanta called  Ed Roland & The Sweet Tea Project. They are releasing a song on their new album called Lover’s Lullaby, but it is not out yet. Literally the only place you can get it is on YouTube right now… If you want the good version go here then click play on the first audio “Jeff Proposed to Callie…and she said YES!” and then scroll to 10:17. You WILL NOT regret it. This is my other favorite song and when they release it I will play it non-stop from my speaker and not just this clip, but until then this works… Also check out Ed Roland & The Sweet Tea Project on Spotify and iTunes. They’re awesome.

And if date night doesn’t go well and you want my favorite break up song right now:
Let It Go – James Bay
So pretty…



What are your favorite date night tracks?

    Gavin DeGraw always makes me think of Haley and Nathan from One Tree Hill (that was their wedding song) so it's definitely a good fit for romantic date night.

    I love Gavin DeGraw and honestly think his live hows are 10X better than his albums which makes me love him that much more! Great playlist!

Today we're making jalapeno cheese dip in a bread Today we're making jalapeno cheese dip in a bread bowl. This is a great party snack and would be awesome at an upcoming super bowl party. 

-First, cut the top off a round loaf of bread and remove the middle. 
-Cut all of the pieces removed into cubes and set aside. 
-Then take a jalapeno queso block and cut it into cubes. Place in a pan. 
-Then add two cans of drained green chiles and a splash of milk. 
-Heat over medium high heat on the stove stirring constantly to prevent sticking. Trust me nobody wants that cleanup. 
-Then immediately pour into your bread bowl and serve hot with the cubed bread pieces. Enjoy!

Easy, and tasty! Are you having or going to a Super Bowl party this year? What's on the menu?
