Dinner for Two!

Hope you all had a great Valentine's day! I did! It actually was a VERY long day for me, starting with a busy day at work, followed with a quick run "workout" at the gym that went a little something like this:

Distance: 4.0 miles
Duration: 35 minutes
Warm up: (.5 miles) 6.3mph
Work out: 6 x 400s 8.0mph
(with a 400 rest inbetween)
Cool Down: (.5 miles) 6.3mph

Great workout! Short and sweet. But man, those 400s were SO hard! After my run, I showered and went to class and then a meeting (I told you it was a LONG day!)

I quickly got back home and was greeted with this AMAZING scene:




Evan was busy at work making this INCREDIBLE meal!

Cioppino with clams, mussels, shrimp, tilapia, and scallops!
Arugula salad
Baguette
Evan and I enjoyed a lovely dinner, complete with relaxing background music and good conversation. We drank a couple glasses of wine (from the Newport winery we visited in September) and some delicious food!



But no Valentine's evening could be complete without some dessert: Angel food cake with strawberries and whip cream! YUM!



PERFECT DAY!

How was your Valentine's Day??

Off to eat another piece of cake, g'night!

    What a great guy! That's sweet that you he had it all ready for you after such a long day! I don't know how you fit it all in!

    We stayed in last night, but I made dinner (like usual). Very low key and just how we like it.

    Oh my goodness! Your Valentine's Day dinner looked just gorgeous! Evan definitely hit a home run on that one.

    We stayed in on Sunday and Monday and cooked. It was calm and peaceful and Soothing.
