Boston Food Photography: Open Your Heart With the Key

Yay for food! The Mr. and I celebrated Valentine's Day together this past Saturday. We had dinner with three other couples. The men cooked and the women got to kick back, relax, and enjoy the meal! Knowing how decadent it was going to get, I brought my camera along so I could photograph our feast!

We also got chocolate covered strawberries and vanilla milkshakes with kahlua. Talk about being pampered! Everything was so yummy! In our past lives in Los Angeles, the Mr. was a pretty darn good chef, so I knew what he was capable of! However, these days, after a long day at work, neither one us gets very creative with dinner (unless you count figuring out ways to only use one pan creative). It was the perfect Valentine's Day present! Thank you to the men for putting in a hard day's work and really getting creative! Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

XOXOXOXOXO

Are you kidding??? That meal would rival that of anything served up in a high end Boston restaurant! Job well done to ALL of the men and I know them all personally. If they ever lose their jobs...just saying, they could have a bright future elsewhere!
