Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day - Yay!!

Tony gave me a heart-shaped box of Godiva chocolates and a bag of French Vanilla Godiva chocolate. Perfect gift! I was worried he would get me something over the tope, but chocolates are perfect! They are all pretty good, but I gave Tony the raspberry and cherry ones. He also gave me a sweet card.





I gave Tony a card too, and a short cookbook of marinades. He likes to marinate meat in crazy things before he grills it. Once he bought a restaurant cook book in order to get the recipe for a cajun marinade. So I thought he might like a book of just that kind of thing. He liked it...I want to pick out some recipes to cook.

Here is a picture of Tony and I at his house before dinner. We had trouble taking a picture of ourselves so it isn't very good. I wore a black dress and Tony wore a black suit.



This was the Valentine's special entree. It is fillet with lobster, mashed potatoes, and mixed veggies. It was a lot of food - neither of us could finish it.


This was the dessert we ordered. There was a full dessert menu, bue we ordered chocolate moose pie. It was pretty good.


The only reservation Stella's had left when we called was either 4 PM or 9 PM. We didn't know when Tony would be back, so we took the 9 PM reservation and of course I couldn't sleep because I had a feast really late at night. I normally like to eat at 5!
There were lots of cute couples at the restaurant. Mostly young couples. One couple looked college age, and half way through the meal the guy got up and took the girl's hand. I thought he was going to propose!! But he didn't....bummer. He just left (I assume to go to the bathroom) and came back later.
