Happy Valentines to everyone! I really liked this Valentines, it was more like a Valentines weekend instead of a valentines day! First of all I came home from a really busy day Friday from being the only loan officer... and still feeling inexperienced mind you, to a house that smelled so clean! Eric had done some deep cleaning and washed all the dishes and it was the best gift anyone could give/get! On Saturday Eric woke up to go shooting with a friend from work so I took the advantage to sleep in since I've gotten sick. When I woke up was just about the same time that he was come home to bring me these...
So pretty! Eric knows me so well. I mean roses are pretty, but just not my style. He told the florist to come up with something purple and it's perfect! It has lasted so long and beautiful and has been drinking so much water! After getting ready for the day on Saturday we went to mall and Eric got some new pants and I got a new sweater that I have been eyeing for our Valentine gifts. It was really fun to spend the day together, then we went to Eric's parents and watched Australia, a really good, but really long movie!
mmm Don't those look delicious? On Sunday morning I woke up earlier to make Eric a Valentine breakfast. I made him bacon (he never gets it because I don't really like it and it also stinks, our house smelled like bacon all weekend!) and these chocolate waffles! I had never made them before but I saw the recipe and thought it would be a fun occasion to try them!

We put strawberries and cool whip on them...what else? I called it strawberry short-breakfast.
On Monday, since I work at a credit union, suckers, I had presidents day off and Eric had no school! We went to the matinee of Valentines Day (how appropriate) I loved it! After we took a wild and crazy search for pickling/canning salt (don't ask) and returned home to catch the bachelor making a huge mistake and, thanks to Andrea, made a delicious candied chicken dinnerChocolate Waffles
1 1/2 C flour
3 tsp Baking Powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 C white sugar
3 Tbs unsweetened cocoa powder
1 C milk
2 eggs
4 Tbs butter, melted
and mix!
Everyone should try these at least once!
It also came with a recipe for a sauce for the top. I didn't try the sauce but if you do let me know!
1 Tbs butter, softened
3/4 C confectioners sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp milk
sauce should be stiff.
