Notes from the
highly cynical Cheri:
It's getting on that time of the year again.
February, Valentine's Day. A time for you
and your loved one to sit down for a romantic
dinner, followed by some romantic...you know.
We've got just the fare, too, as you'll see
by the recipe links below.

If you plan to go the full Monty and include the chocolate truffles
with your coffee or tea, be sure to make them a day or two head
of time, as they are time consuming. While the truffles are an elegant
touch, you can easily skip them, as the warm dark chocolate cakes
are more than enough dessert for most people. On the other hand,
chocolate could be fun later on...
Now, if by chance you're not currently involved, don't let this
great dinner go to waste. Fix it for a platonic friend and have
a great night co-miserating about your lack of love lives. Don't
despair, love may be right around the corner (yeah, right). In any
event, you'll know how to cook for it, when it happens. Let me,
however, put in the disclaimer that knowing how to cook well will
not necessarily help you in the "amour" department. Contrary to
what we've been told, the way to a man's heart is not through his
stomach. If that old adage were true, there would be no way a gorgeous,
talented woman like myself, who can cook up a storm, would be single.
I am and I rest my case.
Have a wonderful dinner, with whoever you decide to share it.
P.S. If either and/or both of you are vegetarians, be sure to

Dinner For Two."
