A Simple Valentine's Day Supper & A Few Ideas

I’ve been mulling over what to do special for Valentine’s Day, which will be on Friday for us, and I think I’ve finally figured out what we’re doing.

I usually only do something special in the morning time at breakfast. We’ll still do that. I have some gifts I bought at one of the big wholesale warehouses after Christmas. They were on clearance and I snatched them up. For hubby he gets chocolate covered nuts. For the children, mugs filled with a variety of candy (we do NOT need any more candy – this has really got to stop!), wrapped in cellophane and tied with a bow. They were so cute and cheap that I couldn’t resist.

The little ones have made valentine’s bags and the rest of us will write notes to them and place them inside.

But I’m going to try something new for us too at supper time. I have always thought those parties where you go from house to house for the different courses sounded fun. So I thought I would incorporate that idea into our Valentine’s Day supper just for fun.

First, let me tell you the menu. Simple. Simple is the key word for me these days so I knew I didn’t want a lot of fussing. I came up with…

We’ll have a blanket spread on the floor where we eat our salad. I want to play a quick game – perhaps Round 1 & 2 of Phase 10 and then it will be time for the next course.
