YOU BET!!!! Commercialised.. Why? If she cooked it and it was good.. how can it be pretentious? I say never apoligise for buying great produce and treating yourself, ever.. Life is too short not to.. whenever you can! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThreeDJ16 Posted February 14, 2008 Report Share Posted February 14, 2008 I took my wife out to dinner earlier in the week to her favorite restaurant (tonight would be crowded and probably bad service). Then I cooked her dinner today and bought a couple bottles of her favorite wines and cheese for later this evening. No commercialized Valentines day mess; but after 20 years together, we know each others favorite things pretty well. -=Jasen=- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

primeats Posted February 15, 2008 Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 Have a drink for my Jasen, I gave it up for Lent( hands stopped shaking after two days) made the mistake of giving up caffeine as well one year. Lucky I didn't get divorced! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanny Posted February 15, 2008 Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 I seared some ahi tuna, and served it with sugar snap peas. Excellent! Hope everyone has a loved one to smooch tonight. I'm smooching my Livvy! She's all dressed in her red and white bandana - red with white hearts, like boxer shorts almost! But she's a pointer, not a boxer.

YOU BET!!!! Sounds delicious! I miss the rocket! I spent a few weeks on Lord Howe last year and was so confused when they kept telling me my salad was coming with rocket! Dinner sounded awesome. Me and My Love did an awesome tapas lunch in DC after going to the 1000 Kisses exhibit at the Reynolds Gallery. DMAX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
