Happy Valentine's Day! AKA The Day All Husbands Should Cook You Dinner!

Joe this morning surprised me with two dozen roses and my favorite flower of all the stargazer lily; and while I LOVE flowers the thing that I love most is the thought and excitement I had when he told me that HE would be cooking ME dinner tonight.

It's amazing how cooking for someone really shows a person that you care for them. There is something magical about someone setting a plate before you and saying, "I made this just for you" that even if it isn't gourmet it somehow makes everything about it a specialty dish.

Joe cooking for me on Valentine's day has been a tradition since our first V-day and each year he seems to exceed himself(Not that I am surprised, he is my sous chef on many occasions). Not only because when he cooks for me I feel blessed to have such a caring and considerate husband who can cook me yummy food, but because he does it with love.

Tonight Joe is making for me who knows what! But whatever it is I know it will be good and from the heart! (It does smell good though as I am sitting here hidden away from the kitchen where I am not allowed!)
