Ideas to celebrate Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day Breakfast

Pancakes with sausage or bacon - when pancakes are done use heart shaped cookie-cutter to make an impression in the center - added bonus syrup doesn't drip all over plate.

French toast - can do the same as with the pancakes

Eggs with heart shaped toast

Beverages

Cranberry juice
Strawberry milk
Cappuccino - dip small heart shaped cookie-cutter in cinnamon, instant coffee or colored sugar and dip on top of foamy milk
Strawberry tea (or some other pink/red tea)

Hostess a Valentine Tea

You can have a romantic tea for two, or a tea for your special friends.

Here are just some of the essentials for a Valentine tea: lace tablecloth, silver or china teapot, china teacups, flowers baby's breath, white linen napkins, and candles.

These are just a few of my suggestions on what tea to serve at a Valentine Tea:

Black tea with Rose Petals, Raspberry tea, Strawberry tea, Passion fruit,  or your own favorite blend.

Scones, (heart shaped please) click here for my basic recipe

Tea sandwiches (which can include some or all of the following) Cucumber Sandwiches, Chicken Salad, Egg Salad, or even Ham sandwiches (usually a big hit with the men) Cut into hearts in keeping with the theme.
