Today was Valentine's Day and it didn't happen without some organisation. While some like to focus on the commercialisation of the day as a reason not to make an effort, I like to think it is a great excuse to do something special with Dani and go out for a romantic dinner. The venue was the Inside Out Restaurant at Parramatta. When I got home, Dani gave me a Valentine gift of Darrelle Lea chocolates and I was glad to see the roses I gave her made it home in one piece. The menu was three courses, I chose an entree of figs and Dani selected the crispy soft shell crab. The mains were vegetable strudel for Dani and a lamb rack for me. While waiting for desert, the need for a photo for today required a bit of fashioning of the petals on the table in an appropriate shape for the day. After desert we finished with some tea and coffee and headed home. The food, evening and company were all amazing - the organisation had paid off.
Beautiful photo Dave, which perfectly reflects the day and night, and of course, you! :) xo
