made a Valentine’s Day dinner for my daughter and grandsons… son-in-law was working so he missed out, although he doesn’t love lobster the way the rest of us do…

when the kids arrived, my daughter took me over to the store to pick up the steak for our dinner…

then she went out and barbecued the steak and lobster… it was delicious…

one of the giggles we always have around lobster has to do with the butter warmers… 

we’ve had ours for around forty years…

no matter which one she has my daughter’s is never hot enough… our current joke is that dad keeps blowing on it and cooling it down… 

here she is trying to get hers burning stronger as we sat down to our delicious dinner… everyone else had very hot bubbling butter, lol…

was fun to set the table with a Valentine theme… spent some time at Dollarama picking up a few items, including some little plastic hearts filled with tiny heart candies, which were very popular…

I’d made some heart shaped red berry muffins which were also a hit…

little things like the warmers make me feel my beloved is at the dinner table with us… if he had been here, there would have been flowers on the table as well…
