I have to tell you about my Valentine's Day.  It was such a sweet evening.  Last year my bf surprised me, so this year was my turn. 

I had the table set with maroon & white, and candles all over.  I took out silver cutlery, which looked stunning with the maroon & white.  I created a special "Romantic Playlist" on my ipod beforehand, and had it transmitted onto the radio which gave us the best background music.  Songs that we've listened to together, with so many good memories.

The night before I already wrapped his gift, and made him a card, so on Valentine's day I left work early to prepare the food & set the table.  We had watermelon cut into heart shapes, fruit skewers (grapes & raspberries on toothpicks), and for the main course we had pancakes ( my bf's favorite) with various fillings. 

Dessert was marshmallow & chocolate fondue, which was so yummy - but way too sweet.   Still terribly romantic though ;)

The evening was absolutely stunning.  So relaxed, and much more personal than a restaurant.  I wish I could have evenings like this more often :)  Suppose I'll have to wait for next year :P

So what did you do for Valentine's?

    That sounds wonderful, Danette, and you really dont have to wait for next year before you do it again. . .I'm sure your boyfriend will always appreciate it.
     
    We are not big on Valentine's day, but that's just us.
