Family Valentine Dinner

It’s that time of year and I have a fabulous meal planned for the children and grandchildren. They may have their own plans on Valentine’s night so I may hold this over until Saturday. But one night belongs to Mom.

 

I could not decide between pink or red for the holiday so I chose both. Start with my new Pier One chargers, finally on sale. Red frilly plates and my little Valentine plates with red flatware.

.

Mikasa French Country glasses for water or wine.

I added a little cupcake cup filled with sweets.

Red and Pink roses in this beat up silver ice bucket, I bought at a yard sale and was planning on painting but I still like the patina of the bucket as it is.

A tiny Potter Barn cake plate for a pretty dessert. 

We have had terribly cloudy weather and I have been trying to increase my light exposure on my camera so my pictures are a little wonky…. Is that a camera adjective?

So here is the menu:

Steak au Poivre

Twice Baked Potatoes

Cesar Salad

Valentine over the Moon Pies… (recipe coming tomorrow)

I am joining Susan at Between Naps on the Porch, Cuisine Kathleen and the Style Sisters.
