Today I’m sharing just 8 of your submissions that have caught my eye, and have me planning the perfect meal for my Valentine! Let’s take a peek!

 All I can say is, if my husband surprised me with THIS dessert – he would be in VERY good standing with moi! How amazing does this look? And, hey, if I have to make it – he will think I’m so amazing that he’ll offer to do the dishes. Either way – I’ll be having a fantastic Valentine’s Day!

 

2. PB&J Cupcakes

Comfort food at it’s finest, for sure.  Impress your sweetheart by your mad skillz in the kitchen when you prepare these Peanut Butter and Jam cupcakes with…get this…homemade jam. Yeah, I went there! And YES you can do it! Fabulous tutorial and photos from “The Candid Appetite”. Besides, your loved one is worth it!

Don’t the title and photo say it all? I want this. The end.

It’s true what they say – that a way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. I would amend it to say that the way to ANYONE’S heart is through their stomachs. I know that is true for me. It’s not just the amazing flavors that you get to experience (though that really helps), it is also the knowledge that someone loved you enough to spend the time to make you something special to eat. Doesn’t it feel amazing?
