Happy Valentine's Day!


Yesterday, Sean and I celebrated our first Valentine's Day with a big feast! We had exchanged gifts early, he gave me a beautiful necklace and a very sweet, handmade card. I made him a couple homemade gifts along with a Slinky and "fancy" calculator watch. We ooze love!

Instead of going out, we decided to stay in getting cozy with some delicious food. We had stuffed mushrooms, Caesar salads, fondue, and red velvet cupcakes. All of it was divine! It was my first time making/eating cheese fondue, and I was surprised how easy it is to make (once all the cheese is grated!) and how it sneakily fills you up. We were stuffed!

We're saving the creme brulee for another day and the red velvet cupcakes were simply amazing. Sean says they were the best cupcakes he's ever had! He was afraid they weren't really gluten-free because they were spongy and delicious, so he told me not to eat them. That's the best review for gluten-free food imaginable! I did eat them... three so far. Divine.

Hope you all had a great Valentine's day! Next up... St. Patrick's Day!
