Writer Audrey McClelland has been married for 15 years. With sad feelings, she admits that the majority of evenings (well, all of them!) she and her husband spend on the couch watching TV. In order to somehow change the situation, Audrey sketched out a long list of ideas what to do with your loved one if you have free time. Geniusbeauty.com hopes that for someone this list will be useful.
