  • A Romantic Dinner for….4

    No you read that right…and NO it wasn’t me & my hubby with another couple. It was me, my hubby, daughter and son. Now don’t get me wrong I did enjoy being with my family but one tends to think Valentine’s Day was made for lovers. Since business kept my hubby from being able to do the usual Valentiney ( yes I created a word) things I thought it would be nice to prepare a wonderful dinner at home for the family.

    We started off with an appetizer of Spicy Garlic-Lemon Shrimp and a loaf of Sweet Italian Bread. IMAG0902

    For our entree I prepared my signature dish….Pan-Seared Salmon with Sauteed Spinach & Mushrooms in an Herb Cream Sauce served atop Sour Cream & Chives Mashed Potatoes

    The grown-ups at the table had Tequila Sunrises and the youngsters sipped on sparkling Cider.

    All in all it turned out to be a rather lovely dinner for 4….Oh yeah my daughter even made dessert a Butter Cream Pound Cake served a la mode.  Who could have wanted a better meal? Hope your Valentine’s Day was filled with LOVE because mine was : )
