We decided to DIY this year:
Candlelight steak dinner prepared by him.
Baked mac and cheese side dish prepared by me.
Homemade chocolate covered strawberries prepared by him - SO IMPRESSED!
Some of his favorite cookies prepared by me.
And a few other special surprises for each other.
In one word: wonderful.

The chocolate covered strawberries are quite impressive. Were they a request from you or did he just surprise you with them? Because if they were a surprise, I'm double-impressed. :)
those chocolate covered strawberries are beautiful....maybe he has a hidden career in desserts
stephanie- i was SO surprised. he even bought food coloring to make pink ones. oh but i ate those already ;)
I heart peanut butter kiss cookies. MMMMMM
glad it was as fun as you hoped. here's to new beginnings!
Those are my favorite cookies! And those strawberries look delish! Go Clancy!
i love those cookies too. this made me hungry.
All of that looks delicious! I would kill for one of those cookies right now. :)
Now I'm starving. Thanks. :)
It all looks delish, and I'm so happy for you two! Have a great weekend!
i am very impressed by the chocolate covered strawberries. it sounds like you guys had a really nice night.
It looks like an awesome day!
looks yummy! glad you had a good day!
those strawberries look awesome!
I am totally impressed with his choco covered strawberry skills! I can't make those to save my life!!
And your cookies look delish too. Dammit - I want sweets!
::Wipes Drool off face:: Looks delish, chica!
The photos are gorgeous and I'm glad you had such a good day.
It sounds wonderful!
HE made those strawberries?!? Speechless.
Mac & cheese side dish made me laugh, because hubby and I have an ongoing debate about whether macaroni and cheese can be considered a meal, or if is (as he claims) only a side dish.
DIY anything is definitely more thoughtful :)
I am smiling so big right now, that sounds like the PERFECT Valentine's Day!
Yum...mac and cheese is one of my favorite sides! And those strawberries look wonderful! Glad you had a great day :)
Those are amazing!! Happy V Day Michelle!!
awwwww!
Next year I am totally having chocolate covered strawberries! How impressive.
awwwwww. I'm glad you had a greaty day yesterday!
Okay, who got the whipped cream??
;-)
drool all over the strawberries! YUM
YAY for having a great Valentine's and someone to share it with.
Those are amazing looking cookies! And the strawberries? Yum!
Looks like a great way to celebrate a special Thursday!
Dude. He's got me on the strawberries. VERY nice.
I heart you, and yet I hate you. But mostly heart.
xo
I must confess, I thought it might be Clancy way before your post revealed it, and I was a tad disappointed. I want you to be happy, but how can a man so apparently willing to devastate you and break your heart ever truly make you happy? I hope he proves me wrong. But I was kinda hoping you'd be like the Lucy Liu character on Cashmere Mafia...hooks up with her ex (the one who dumped her and broke her heart), then the next morning gives back the engagement ring, saying, "Here. I hung onto this hoping you'd change your mind. But now I've changed mine."
Mmm.. cookies and strawberries! Your cookies look divine! Recipe?
Wow...that makes the meatloaf I made last night look rather pitiful! Okay, it was pitiful to begin with. Next year, I'll plan something with cookies, Hershey's kisses and dipped fruit :)
Very impressive with the strawberries!!
Glad you had such a beautiful day.
Aw Michelle that sounds like an amazing Valentine's Day! I'm so happy for you :)
Oh my God, yum! I'm sending you my address so you can ship over any leftovers ;)
Wow, definitely impressed! And slightly jealous! Looks and sounds like a wonderfully perfect night!
looks wonderful! glad you had a fabulous evening!! :)
"Wonderful" definitely does sum this up! Chocolate-covered strawberries?! How delicious.
P.S. Baked macaroni & cheese, hm? If you ever have the time, would you mind sending me the recipe you use? I loooove baked mac & cheese (well, really, anything at all with cheese...) and I try every recipe I come across.
GIVE ME CHOCOLATE COVERED STRAWBERRIES OR DIE.
sorry, i've been with two year olds all day and i'm just now getting a break. chocolate would help a LOT right now.
Those strawberries are impressive! Might i request recipes for each of these items so we can do our own?
Wow! He did a great job! Glad you guys had a wonderful day.
Awww yay. Those chocolate covered strawberries are beautiful! And the cookies...ummm, yum. I realllyyy want one of those right about now!
after our facebook messaging, i gave the whole nature of "second chances" a lot of thought. and concluded i'd probably do the exact same thing you are and take it slow, because i'm a hopeless romantic and lets face it, i'd take one (well ONLY one) of my ex's back in a heartbeat, solely because of the intense connection that i suspect from reading past posts that you and c have as well.
Ok, I just woke up and thisis the first picture of food i've seen all day, and I LITERALLY want to jump inot the screen gaaah looks amazing.
Those strawberries look so awesome. I'm even impressed with the three colors drizzled on them... so yummy! I'm glad you had such a romantic Valentine's Day :)
Brandy
WOW, YOUR MAN IS FANCY!
Mmmm! Cookies! Those look awesome. I am quite impressed with his drizzling skills as well.
LOVE it! He made those chocolate covered strawberries?! Does he have a brother? hehe its rare to find a guy willing to hand make things with chocolate. :) Glad you had such a nice vday!
Those cookies look amazing. Send some this way, please. Oh and don't forget those strawberries.
those strawberries! wow! he's a keeper!
I LOVE those cookies. Delish!
Speaking of exchanging recipes, your kiss cookies turned out PERFECT! Can I have your recipe? Mine were slightly small and we forgot to roll them in sugar!
we stayed in too and did the candlelight dinner, but I cooked and we had cupcakes for dessert.
wow to the chocolate covered strawberries, i'm impressed too.
Wow, you're so lucky. I'm glad you had a great Valentine's Day. :)
I love Valentine's Day and the cookies and strawberries look so yummy!
Hey Michelle - I totally have been behind in reading lately - but I JUST caught up. I hope things are going well with the rekindling, take your time and look after yourself.
*squishes*
I heart sweet valentines! and second chances!
