Pretty Camellias on the table.
Big as saucers, from my yard.
It was a nice Valentine's dinner even if the cook did get bombed before she made the meal. (The Cosmopolitans and Shiraz did me in - never got to the champagne.)
Underneath that glob of fruit and cream and balsamic berry reduction is a little round cake saturated in Amaretto. By the time I assembled the desserts, I was having trouble focusing so it became fruit blobs. Whatever. It tasted good.
And then...
There was basketball.

basketball?....do tell.....
The 11th Commandment:
Valentine's Day shall not interfere with GATOR Basketball when we are #1 and Defending National Champs.
(MY rule, not W4D's!)
What a beautiful table setting!
BTW, what's a Cosmopolitan (and, no, I don't mean Helen Gurley Brown's rag)?
Thanks for the compliment. Not bad for the island in the kitchen.
I make a Cosmo with vodka, a little triple sec or Cointreau, a squeeze of fresh lime and a little cranberry juice. It should be mostly vodka, not mostly cranberry juice and I like mine with Cran-raspberry juice. Shake, strain and serve up and icy cold with a slice of lime garnish.
oh THAT basketball! STAY WARM tonight!
