Valentine’s day has come and gone… did you all have a good one?
Here’s how we celebrated:
The BEST pancakes in the world.
(Even better when made using heart-shaped pancake rings!)
Gifts!! Wrapped in ultra-posh paper bags from Whole Foods. 
I gave Austin a custom-made shirt, based off the fake corn dog shop in the movie Don’t Tell Mom The Babysitter’s Dead.
(I illustrated that logo myself, while using the paused DVD as reference from our TV screen.)
That’s love.

Rather than going out for an over-priced, fancy dinner on the big night, we opted to stay at home and enjoy some of our favorite comfort foods. I offered to make Austin whatever he wanted for dinner, but he said he wanted a “cheat night.” (a.k.a. Chinese take-out.)
Makes life easy for me!
My comfort food, on the other hand, is almost always in the form of Italian food.
Pizza!!! Topped with caramelized onions, goat cheese and fresh rosemary. Perhaps the best combo ever.

And no Valentine’s Day dinner is complete without dessert!
I made these extra-special treats for Austin:
You all can probably guess his favorite flavor combo by now… but these things are seriously addictive. And way healthier than the original!
I’m excited to share the recipe soon.

The gift/food/evening looks awesome!!!!
Great gift! Austin is a lucky man:) That is a really cool shirt.
Awesome job on the shirt Megan! If I had to choose between your pizza or the Chinese, I’d take the pizza because I’m a big sucker for caramelized anything. Can’t wait for the mystery chocolate ball recipe!
Looks like you had a very happy Valentine’s day! I will officially be celebrating with my boyfriend on Friday since he had class until 9 last night, but I did make a cauliflower pizza crust pizza for us as well! (see here: http://bowsandbrownies.blogspot.com/2012/02/cauliflower-pizza-crust-banana-ice.html) I also made a variation of the banana “ice cream.” A healthy meal that was so delicious!
I just found your blog and I am so happy I did, I love your recipes and can’t wait to try all of them out!
Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead… I totally used to watch that movie (often), but don’t remember anything about it anymore! I need to hunt it down! Looks like a successful Valentine’s Day
