Valentine's Day

This year, we had more of a Valentine's weekend than just a day.  On Friday, we hired a baby-sitter to come watch Anna while Steve and I headed to the Murray Arts Center.  They were having their annual Valentine's Dance.  I got a pretty red carnation at the door and we found a table in the back. We started off by learning a few moves to the East Coast or Triple Swing.  The teacher was hilarious.  A little old man from Brooklyn.  Then we had a wonderful time dancing to the live 'band' (really only one guy with a sound system and a guitar, but he was good).  We really enjoyed ourselves.
Saturday was pretty low key, but Sunday was nice.  I prepared a candle-lit chocolate fondue dessert for the two of us.  Strawberries, marshmallows, cake and shortbread.  White chocolate for Steve and milk chocolate for me.  And, of course, sparkling cider to wash it all down.  It was very romantic.
