Mushy, Gushy Meals and Stuff

Tis the season of LOVE and flowers and chocolates and hugs and kisses and all of the mushy, gushy stuff no one seems to like but secretly really loves... :)

Everyone wants to do something for the person you love on Valentine's Day, even if you hate it... and what better way to do something than to make them a meal?! It takes time and consideration and care! So, here are some little ideas to get those brain gears a rollin'!


First off... BREAKFAST

don't go "bacon" my heart...




How about some pancakes?!




Secondly... LUNCH

Maybe you can't be with them... but putting their sandwich in a little baggie is just as great.


Add a little note to their fruit

Or, how about switching hearts in apples? Cause you "hold each others hearts!"
(you can gag now if necessary.. I know it's cheesy)



Last but not least, the most important Valentine's Day meal ever... DINNER

Ok, so you are broke and you can't go out to eat... no problem! Who needs to wait 2 hours for a table for food you could cook yourself? Get all dressed up and have a great dinner at home! 

Not really into the fancy stuff? Pizza is always delicious, as are burgers.




Want to push the limits a little bit? Go for this Filet Steak with Wild Mushrooms and Shallots with some Proscuitto Wrapped Asparagus?! Recipe 




Desserts are the best... especially on Valentine's Day. 
Chocolate covered strawberries? A little cliche, but they are so good.. so, YES!


Or this...


Or these!!!


OR Tiramisu?!



The kitchen is your canvas.. now, paint!.. and have a fantastic day of love, happiness and all that mushy stuff :)


oh, and don't forget the wine.











"eat, drink & be merry"
