Few things can measure the value of a relationship to a woman like the gift that you decide to give her for her birthday. Either way, it's a great way to show the woman in your life that you put time, thought and effort into her gift. Gifts For Under $20It could be hard to impress some women with a birthday gift under $20, so your best bet is to go hyper-personal with a gift that truly shows how you feel about her. If you've got the budget to combine this with a heartfelt card and letter, it could be a really effective gift. However, making a significant effort to spend time with your woman for her birthday could be a gift goldmine.

When you are ready to make the bonbons, heat water until simmering in the bottom pan of a double boiler over high heat (see Tip). Remove one plate of cheese balls from the freezer. Using a candy-dipping tool or a spoon, immerse one ball in the chocolate; gently roll to coat it. Dip the remaining cheese balls. (Work quickly because it is important the the cheese balls remain frozen during this step.)

This year, as the holiday approached, I realized my idea of romance has changed drastically over the years. With marriage, romance is harder to come by.

As long as I sneak a few to my husband, I think romance lives on in our house.
