Valentine's Day Dinner

[LostinVA]

Should I make dinner (seafood) or buy dinner & bring home? We have no desire to eat at a madhouse restaurant tonight.

If I buy dinner, I'll be picking it up from a decent restaurant. Not fast food or anything. Both are about an equal drive out of my way.

1. Make it!

I'm making shrimp ettouffe over basmati rice.

[LostinVA]

2. That sounds good

We love shrimp!

4. Cooking together is one of the most sweetly romantic things you can do.

That's what we're doing (though not until tomorrow night--we have to wait a day to celebrate together).

I'm (we're) making lobster poached in butter and vanilla bean, roasted asparagus (w/homemade bearnaise sauce), snacking on Cambozola cheese & baguette while we cook. A French walnut tart for dessert, because it's one of his favorite desserts (I'm making that ahead of time to surprise him).

:loveya: :hi: :loveya:

6. I thought about doing lobster, too

Your dinner sounds absolutely delicous, but we're not going to get that fancy.

:loveya:

10. Believe it or not, it's an EXTREMELY easy recipe.

And the poaching liquid is basically the start of a bernaise, so that'll be a cinch to throw together.

5. if you are going to cook it together and do the bumpbutt in the kitchen

then cook

if not, bring takeout...

[LostinVA]

7. Our kitchen is usually too cold to do that

:cry:

Damn crappy uninsulated addition!

9. silly pev!!!!

I meant literally to bump butts while cooking, laughing, chatting and kissing

not *the* BUMPBUTT!!!

:spank:

:rofl:

:loveya:

8. Once my ex and I were throwing Mrs. Pauls fishsticks onto a baking pan

And he turned to me and said, "I love it when we cook together"

The question is, which feels the most romantic to you?

[LostinVA]

13. We usually eat different dinners, so cooking together would be nice

[soleft]

15. Ok, don't do fish sticks tho!

Have fun!

[LostinVA]

16. Ick no!

It's easy to get good seafood around here. I also think it would be physically impossible to get Haruka to eat a fishstick. She's picky.

[Parche]

14. Make Haruka Cook!!

:rofl:
:hi:

17. I don't want to burn the house down

Actually, she can make some things.
