Ok ok ok. It's been a minute. I've been otherwise occupied. Being a mom to a toddler is rather consuming, plus we've had several snow days, I've been working on a car and playing domestic diva. Let's see... What to talk about....
I know!
Happy Valentine's Day!
I heart Valentine's day. 11 years ago this evening, my beloved husband asked me if I wanted to be his girlfriend. *sigh* He can be so darn romantic! Years ago, we abandoned going out to eat on this heart-y day- too many people to fight and generally poor service. So instead, we go out another night, but I like to make some nice dinner for the day. Soo.... Here's my proposed meal plan for tonight. I loove cooking, so it makes me happy. And this year we'll have a little bear to enjoy the dinner with us!
Appetizer: I'm drawing a blank. I'll have to revisit this.
Salad: Caesar salad, bagged salad that is. :o) Gotta conserve time when possible, right?
Main course: Shrimp and salmon over couscous with a cream sauce. Rolls (yes premade. sheesh. doughs haven't liked me much lately). Roasted potatoes.
Dessert: Chocolate dipped strawberries and homemade whipped cream.
Sounds yummy, right? Need to decide on the cream sauce. Do I want just a basic cream or do I want more of a buerre blanc? He prefers the buerre blanc, but that means I'll need to pick up wine and butter. And a shallot or two. That's fine. he loves it, and it would be a nice topper for the seafood.
