Can you cook, lite candles, play soft music, do the dishes? Need a recipe?

I dunno about the dishes man...that's asking a lot
Sure, got a good recipe?
I tried the razor thing, and after much thought, I decided it wasn't in either of our best interests (though a DE may be in her future).

I've always believed that actions speak louder than gifts, a thoughtful day doing what she wants (or something you've both wanted to do) might be a good starting point.

The natural Japanese hone from OLD_SCHOOL that yo...err...I mean she always wanted!! Some flowers and chocolates with a nice card would be a nice addition to the hone, and quite possibly help to avoid the trip to the emergency room!
