There are plenty of ways to celebrate the special day at home, and with the LG ThinQ[1] taking role as a lifestyle platform, it can help make your Valentine\u2019s more memorable without sacrificing safety. It can help you express love in a variety of ways from the perfect meal to fun-filled activities with your loved ones \u2013 whether it be a special someone or friends and family.<\/p>\n<p>1. Turn Your Home into Cupid\u2019s Safe Bubble<\/p>\n<p>Lucky for us, Valentine\u2019s Day falls on a Sunday this year, so we can be home with our loved ones for the entire day.<\/p>\n<p>Create the perfect environment for the special day by using the Routine feature on the LG ThinQ app[2]. It remembers all the settings you want on different appliances and sets everything up once you select the mode you want. You can customize your own modes; for today, may we suggest your very own Fresh Air Mode? With one push of a button, the robot vacuum can be quietly getting all the cleaning done, while the LG air purifier freshens the air you and your loved ones breathe. You can even monitor air quality in real time from any corner of the house with the app for freshness that lasts all through the day.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re feeling fancy for Valentine\u2019s even at home, the LG Styler can not only eliminate the germs on your everyday clothes, but also freshen up the flattering dress or elegant suit[3] from the back of the closet full of dust. You can also always put your clothes in the laundry to have LG\u2019s latest front-loader washer featuring TurboWash\u2122 360 to spray jets of water and detergent in four direction at once for a thorough clean. Both appliances can easily be controlled from the palm of your hand with the LG ThinQ app, where you can use cycles with steam such as \u201cAllergy Care[4]\u201d for sanitization[5], leaving you to focus on spending time with your loved ones.<\/p>\n<p>2. Give Love and Gifts Safely Hand-Picked from Home<\/p>\n<p>Gift-giving can be a great way to please your loved ones, but there\u2019s no need to visit department stores or shops, as many brands present comprehensive gift guides and options online that can be ordered to your or their homes.<\/p>\n<p>Without having to go outside, get the perfect gift from the LG Store on the ThinQ app which has a variety of thoughtful gift options available. For music lovers, the LG TONE Free Ear Buds or LG XBOOM GO Bluetooth speakers are always a great choice, and the portable LG PuriCareTM Mini Air Purifier is useful especially given the current circumstances.<\/p>\n<p>3. Transform Your Home into a Safe-Haven Bistro<\/p>\n<p>Valentine\u2019s Day wouldn\u2019t be complete without a romantic candlelit dinner. While the idea of preparing and cleaning up after a four-course meal at home may not seem appealing, the household apps available to help us can make that idea so much more doable. Re-create scrumptious meals from the safety of your home!<br \/>If you\u2019re coming up short on food options, LG ThinQ offers services compatible with recipe management apps like Drop, Innit, and SideChef that provides access to thousands of recipes to find an appropriate dish. Find the perfect recipe, click it, and it\u2019ll send the recipe to your LG oven, preheating it to the right temperature and setting it on adequate functions whilst you focus on preparing the ingredients. You can check on the cooking progress from time to time on your smartphone as well[6]. Don\u2019t worry if you\u2019re not an expert, since the apps will provide you with step-by-step instructions to help you on your way to a deliciously easy cooking experience.<\/p>\n<p>Clean-up is also not an issue, as the ThinQ app lets you control and monitor your dishwasher and robot vacuum for a convenient and pleasant meal from start to finish.<\/p>\n<p>4. Romance the Evening with Safe and Sound Entertainment<\/p>\n<p>The day is not over yet; enjoy a safe evening of entertainment with your loved ones. To wind down the perfect day, cuddle together for a movie and search classic romance films or rom coms starring your favorite actors. Using the ThinQ AI in LG\u2019s AI TVs and the platform-wide LG universal search function[7], simply ask the LG Magic Remote to \u201cfind a romantic comedy film\u201d and it will track down something you\u2019ll enjoy with incredible ease.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re in the mood for a dance, your own living room can become a dance floor or ballroom to let loose with your loved ones. \u201cPlay love-themed ballads\u201d could be a way to set the mood. Whether it be romantic, party, or maybe just some lo-fi beats, or ask the LG XBOOM GO Bluetooth speaker to find music that fits the atmosphere or play your favorite playlist with a simple voice command.<\/p>\n<p>While it may not all be easy being stuck together more often than not these days, our loved ones have looked out for us, put up with us, and cared for us in the most trying of times. We love them, and this Valentine\u2019s Day, add your own twist to create an unforgettable experience safely in your homes.<br \/>Learn more about LG\u2019s smart appliances that share love from the safety of the home at www.LGThinQ.com.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mypr.co.za\/contact\/featured\/\">CLICK HERE to submit your press release to MyPR.co.za<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-pagination pagination\">Pages: <span class=\"post-page-numbers current\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Page <\/span>1<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/mypr.co.za\/pandemic-blues-eating-tips-to-help-get-you-back-on-track\/2\/\" class=\"post-page-numbers\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Page <\/span>2<\/a><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mypr.co.za\">Source: MyPR.co.za<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Your Guide to a Safe, New Normal Valentine\u2019s DayHere\u2019s a list of how you can celebrate the day of love safely in the pandemic era Valentine\u2019s Day is just around the corner, and fanfare and frivolities aside, the essence of Valentine\u2019s Day is to express true love, which can be done without going out to [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":180605,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[9021,1],"tags":[3257],"class_list":{"0":"post-180604","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-mypr","8":"category-south-africa","9":"tag-mypr","10":"entry"},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/pandemic-blues-eating-tips-to-help-get-you-back-on-track.png","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/180604","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=180604"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/180604\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/180605"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=180604"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=180604"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=180604"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
