My Valentine...

I knew today was going to be a busy day, so I made our Valentine's Day dinner last night. We had a colorful meal of chicken marsala (hold the mushrooms!), bright green steamed peas, and sliced red tomatoes. It looked so festive and was most yummy.

For dessert, I made Tiramisu for the very first time. It's the King's favorite dessert. He was duly impressed, and raved about how good it was. I made two pans and put one in the freezer for later.

One of the joys of my life is hearing my hubby talk about how much he enjoyed something I made. I often make cinnamon rolls, using a recipe borrowed from The Pioneer Woman (http://www.thepioneerwoman.com/). Oh my, but they are delicious. He loves to take a few pans to work to share. He volunteered me to make a huge batch of them for our church's CARITAS guests this week. With all the wonderful cooks in our church, he wanted me to make my cinnamon rolls one night. He is so sweet!

We had a basketball game today for Princess E. She plays in the Upward league. This is her third season playing. It's been amazing to watch the improvements in her skills, as well as her teammates, over the season. They had a tough game today, yet they continued to work together as a team to play the best game they could. I'm so proud of the whole team.

Today was also my little cousin's 5th birthday. There was a party at his house, and he had a surpise visitor. *Spiderman* came to help him celebrate his big day. Check out Spidey here.

Until next time...
