Love is a Verb

I had a Valentine this year.



Last  year on February 14th, I spent the day at work, picked up some Sushi on my commute back home, picked up a bottle of red, plopped my butt on the floor and enjoyed my fancy dinner for 1 while watching the Red Wings.  But don't get me wrong, I didn't complain.  That's just how you roll when you're single.

But this year was different.

I still worked all day.  But instead of takeout and hockey, Steven had dinner cooked and ready for me when I walked in the door.
(The hockey comes later.. I got us Red Wings vs. Predators tickets for next weekend.)

Red Wings vs. Nashville Predators.


 
Came home to this. :)


Syrus wanted some.



 Dinner was delicious.  But now that I know he can cook, he has no idea what he's in for.
;]

I followed up by making him some V-day desserts.  Cupcakes and chocolate covered strawberries!







 The evening was absolutely perfect.  It was so nice to have a Valentine this year.  I forgot how nice it can be to share days like this with someone special.
And I don't just mean Steven.  Syrus was just as much my Valentine this year. :)






Hope you all had a great L-O-V-E day!


xoxo,

Laura

  3. What an awesome valentine. A man that can cook is the best. My husband is an amazing cook as well (although I can't get him to cook as often as I'd like). Glad to see you had such a fabulous v-day!
