Hey there Reader--- After 22.5 years of marriage and 6 kids, we don't go out for Valentine's Day anymore. We try to get a date night at least once or twice a month, but gave up going out on February 14th years ago. We prefer to stay home, relax, and maybe eat a special dinner and dessert. But we also love to throw a couple's party sometime in February with our closest friends. I created a curated list of my favorite gifts to enjoy together on Valentine's Day. With categories for Breakfast in Bed, a Movie Night at Home, a Romantic Dinner for 2, and a Couples Party, there is something for everyone. You can see my Valentine Gift Guide HERE. These are my top picks for a homemade sweet treat for Valentine's Day: This Chocolate Tart Recipe has only 6 ingredients but looks fancy enough to be in a high-end bakery. With a simple low carb pie crust and a ganache filling, you can have a world class dessert in no time.

He's been working on it diligently for the past three years. Starting my blog has been a big part of our story, so it is relevant to share. This is my favorite episode. And he tells a bit of our story in this one. |

Hi there Reader--- If you are hosting a party or gathering what is something that is a must? Appetizers!
