The tradition continued. We got the china, crystal and silver out to enjoy our Valentine's dinner.
This year I had to work resulting in a very simple menu. I found some heart shaped ravioli from Costco and added a meat sauce to it. I steamed asparagus, the Valentine vegetable, as coined by the Big Guy. Peanut made a pull apart sesame seed/basil bread and we added a salad. We broke out a bottle of wine and did not have a problem polishing it off. I think the aerator makes the wine taste even better!
Our gifts for Valentines are very simple. The boys got DVDs and puzzles. The Big Guy gave me a book. I gave him one too. I found this little knick knack for him. It is just 3X4, if that. It will be a perfect little addition to his desk. Anyone who knows me, know that ice cream is pretty important. I always joke that it is in my genes!
We finished off the meal with a brownie raspberry triffle. It looks better than it tasted. My boys still gobbled it up. We even got all the dishes done. I am very grateful for all the LOVE in my life!
