Good grief, I've got a million of them. Where do I start? My wife and I write these ideas down whenever we think of one, and then randomly draw one out whenever we're stuck for something to do.
Some of our more recent ones (not in any particular order) include:
1) If it's during the day, go to a local grove to pick fruit and then go home and cook something with it together.
2) Pick a topic that interests you at that moment, make a list of every song you can think of that even remotely fits that topic, gather those songs (private collection or p2p), and burn a CD to commemorate the day.
3) Attend a golf tournament. This was my wife's idea, and although we both hate golf, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves in the gallery at the tournament.
4) Wax her car together.
5) Go to Wal-Mart and buy one of those cheapo stained-glass window kits and make one together.
6) Bake a homemade cake or homemade cookies together.
7) Dress completely formally and eat at Burger King. This is a lot more fun than you might imagine, and everyone there treats you like absolute royalty (including employees and other customers).
8) Dress like tourists and ask strangers to take pictures of you all over town.
9) Play a complete game of Monopoly. While playing, call a local radio station to request songs for dedication. Each time they finally play it, keep calling back with another song for as long as the Monopoly game lasts.
10) Crash somebody's wedding reception.
11) Offer to cook a romantic meal for another couple (friends, I would hope) at their house.
