Happy Valentine's Day!

On Valentine's Day when we were little, my Dad always came home with a big box of chocolates for Mom and a mini one for each of us kids. It was the best!

In my own family, one of our Valentine's traditions is to have a dinner of french toast by candlelight. I don't know how it started, but it's one of our favorite meals of the year. And doesn't everything taste better by candlelight?

Hope you have a very sweet Valentine's Day!
