my bloody valentine

So, this post isn't related to crafty stuff, but I was so excited about the Valentine's Day dinner Andrew and I made last Sunday night, that I wanted to share. We had an all-red dinner with a raspberry and feta salad with raspberry vinagrette...

Grilled Red Shrimp with Roasted Red Pepper Coulis and Orzo...


...and Ruby Red Poached Pears with Vanilla Ice Cream.

The pears were cooked in red wine and cinnamon and sugar, which looked like blood, but was delicious. I think we might make this dessert again for Halloween. It was a nice Valentine's Day dinner. We did it the night after because Andrew had to play a show with Elvis on Sat. And we were housesitting for my brother so we had to take advantage of their fancy kitchen and hot tub.

some actual knitting... and some crocheted hats

i've knitted about a million scarves, but these are some of my favorites...
