Because It's Valentines.....

We decided to use this day to our advantage. No, not to kowtow to tradition by wearing red, going on a really schmaltzy date, and indulging in overt public displays of affection enough to cause projectile vomiting everywhere.



I've decided to make chocolate covered strawberries.

I took out the leaves of some luscious strawberries that Nards brought home from Baguio. Then I found the large bar of semisweet chocolate I bought last month.

I figured since I was preparing the strawberries, I might as well take photos. (Nuks, uma-artistic.)

Where's the chocolate? There it is. (All these "artistic" shots were making my mouth water.) So I shaved off about half a cup of the chocolate, melted it, mixed it with some cream and vanilla extract.



With the chocolate done, let the dipping begin! Yum.



Happy Valentine's Day!
