Early on Saturday, Mike had mentioned that he already had an idea about dinner - HE was going to cook it! He began asking me questions like "If you could pick any meat what would you want?" or "What vegetables would go with that?" or "What kind of dessert are you in the mood for?" So, I gave him a few different ideas and he hit the internet for recipes.
He told me that he was heading to the grocery and that I needed to leave the house around 4:30 and if I did come back early, not to go in the kitchen. Well, I couldn't complain with that so I ran an errand and got a pedicure and then came back and read in our room. Mike brought a "sample" (batter from thedessert on a spatula) to hold me a little bit longer.
Finally, he came to tell me that dinner was ready. He had set the table (with tablecloth, candles, and flowers) and had a beautiful plate of food! Mike had fixed ribeye steaks with sauteed onions and roasted tomatoes, baked potatoes, sauteed green beans with garlic and seseme seeds, kale chips (FANTASTIC recipe!), and rolls.
THEN, for dessert, Mike made a Chocolate Chess Pie with REAL whipped cream! What a guy!
All in all, GREAT Valentine's Day!
