Valentine's Day Update!

V-day was much better than last year. The fondue turned out so well, surprisingly because we really just winged it. It took Brad and I three stops before we could find fondue fuel to melt the chocolate, and then once we got to his house, his mom pointed out that she already had two cans of it! So, that was annoying. Everything else went off without a hitch though.

Brad and I had one miniature fight over what to make for dinner, which resulted in Pizza Pockets for him, and Lean Cuisine for me, but hey, at least it's a funny story.

I can't really give out the recipe, as I said we were very experimental with the measurements and ingredients. We used Nutriwhip low-fat cream, which was my one demand, and five bars of Jersey milk chocolate instead of dark chocolate, which was Brad's one demand. Compromise. We melted the two together over the flame, then added a splash of Vanilla Extract and Grande Marnier. Then we had picked up a whole fruit platter of watermelon, cantaloupe, honeydew, pineapple, grapes and strawberries. It was all so delicious.

We did the cheesy thing and fed each other strawberries just for fun. No sex though. I was really tired by the end of the night after a long day, which worried me. No sex on Valentine's Day!? It was only our second time around celebrating. I don't want to be an old married couple. So, we made up for it twice the next day :)
