Valentine's Day

I love Valentine's Day! I am definitely a sucker for any chance to be romantic and sentimental. We decided that instead of gifts, we would go out to a really nice dinner. So, over the weekend we went out to a local restaurant whose Executive Chef had participated in my Signature Chefs event for the March of Dimes in December. I had crab-stuffed steak with garlic mashed potatoes and a big glass of wine. It was great!

On Valentine's day, Joey woke up and made us breakfast before we headed off to work and school. Then, he came home with a movie and big movie theatre boxes of my favorite candy. I have a thoughtful hubby!

Last year Joey started a tradition and cooked the meal we had at our wedding for me on Valentine's day. He did that again this year and it was yummy! Steak, au gratin potatoes, and green beans... He looks cute cooking, right? :)

And of course we used the china we got for our wedding. Love it!

Romantic dinner for two.

I made dessert, but was too full to eat it after Joey's great meal. We have enjoyed it this week though.

So, as you may have gathered, Valentine's day was full of lots of eating for us this year. We enjoyed making memories of our second Valentine's day as a married couple together. I am a pretty lucky lady!
