Okay! I am making a romantic dinner for two tonight. Heres the menu:

Grilled steaks
Corn on the cob
Salad
Velveeta Shells and Cheese
Biscuits
And Oreo Cream pie for dessert

Is there anything I am missing?

What are you making for dinner or is he/she cooking or are you going out to eat?

I've got my beef marinating as I type.
I'm doing teriyaki beef and steamed rice.

We are having orange roughy in a lemon cream sauce, fresh broccoli and rice pilaf (just as soon as I get home to make it)


For dessert - Haagen Daas ice cream - strawberry for him, vanilla (with tons of hot fudge sauce) for me.

Everyone's dinner sounds so good! I don't know how quality our steaks will be. I have to stop after work to get them.

Hubby put a bbq beef brisket in the crock pot this morning. I haven't decided if I want to make asparagus or brocolli, but either way it's a tasty recipe from Cooks Illustrated. I will also make some type of potato, I'm thinking mashed. I will probably make tiramisu as well, assuming I can find some lady fingers. DH doesn't get off work for another four hours, so I have time. Now the question, which booze shall I use for the tiramisu? Here are my ideas:

Tuaca (Italian vanilla liqueur),
Frangelico (Hazelnut liqueur), or
light Rum

I'm leaning towards Frangelico because I like it in my coffee, and on the rocks with cream.

We ate out on Sunday - avoiding the real crowds

I had the best whiskey glazed ribeye with baked potato, steamed brocoli and we spit a peanutychocolately dessert. DH as usual, had a huge burger and a good microbrew (and potato skins to start).

Tonight, he just wanted something simple - so tomato soup and grilled ham and cheese for him, chicken for me (probably in lemon juice, garlic and capers), he's picking up something special for a dessert.

Oops forgot, he did ask me to make seafood stuffed mushrooms, so I am
and I have some wonderful fresh asparagus I'll be serving.

Were just having spaghetti. I told him we should eat like the little dinner on Lady and the Tramp where we both take one end of the noodle. He's not playing
Oh well, it's still good. He offered to take me out but I didn't want to fight the crowds.

I am roasting a chicken which I rubbed with herbs, we are having mashed potatoes and cornbread and green beans. We have fresh strawberries and vanilla ice cream for desert. Dinner will be ready in about twenty minutes, all I need to do is mash the potatoes and serve.

Mmm, sounds good! I'd love to join you, but I wouldn't want to kill the romance

I get to spend Valentines dinner alone (well, with my 2 furry boyfriends) while my fiance's at work. *cry* So I'm thinking...salami sandwich and some yogurt...joy!
I hope all the rest of you have a better Valentines then I am!

Yeah, doubtful. I had shrimp flavored Ramen noodles with eggs dropped in (very yummy!) and wine...and whine...lol
My new flame had a crisis last night, his son got chicken pox! So, that cut out any plans for us!
