Valentine Joys

Happy Valentine Day everyone!

Today, Mark went to the doctor and was told....surprise, surprise....he has the FLU! Yes, the FLU! Who would'a thunk it? LOL He did get some awesome meds and is feeling some relief from the chills and fevers. The kids stayed home due to fevers and coughs all night and we had a quite day of rest.

Since we both are sick, it wasn't a very "romantic" day. However, Marissa and Jessica were awesome and made us dinner. They made, from scratch, heart shaped chicken, zuchini, and tomato pizzas with a wonderful Romano cheese and garlic sauce. They made the dough and sauce from scratch and it tasted sooooo yummy! They also served a Ceasar salad and made a Tiramisu for desert. The tiramisu was made with a wine cake (secret family recipe) and layered with pineapple, strawberries, and french vanilla whip cream!! Delicioso!!! They decorated the table and had Mark and I sit next to each other (we normally sit on opposite ends of the table.) I wish I had taken a picture, especially of the heart shaped individual pizzas, but I didn't.

I hope all of you had a nice day and were blessed to be surrounded by those who love and cherish you. God bless and keep you until we "meet" again.
