Happy Valentine's Day!

For Valentine's Day, my dh and I made a special dinner for ourselves after the children were in bed. We started with a sparkling Cava and baked brie with herbs. Notice the great fire in the fireplace in the background.

My dh making the main course.

Spicy Garlic Shrimp with Arborio Rice. I had also made a roasted pepper salad the day before which takes a day for the flavors to meld. Notice the Periodic Table of the Elements placemat peeking up from Stephen's chair. It is currently his favorite placemat.

Dessert was a Sour Lime and Lemongrass Granita.

Another picture of the great fire. Plus the new candles and candle holder for the mantel piece.
