Valentine's Day Dishes ----- The longest Celebration (pic heavy!!)

Nice stuff, very artistic.and imaganative

 

Very pretty.

 

Nice dishes and clever work with the Valentine theme. You're indeed very creative.

 

I wish I could be plate as pretty and creatively.  Our valentine's dinner was straight up meat and potatoes.

The prime rib I made was small just for the two of us so it was difficult to carve nicely.  My hollandaise came out a bit too runny and the potatoes overcooked a little.  But the flavor was there eventhough it lacked in good looks.

 

Don't be too hard on yourself Koukou. I'm sure your Valentine dinner was made with a lot of love, the main ingredient. I'd love to eat your dish any time.

 

Great work! Puts a whole new slant on the phrase "eat yer heart out." /img/vbsmilies/smilies/tongue.gif

 

Excellent pics Dcarch,I really liked the the "hearts" salad and that bottom pic of Shrimp and Salmon is just beautiful

KK, That is a fine looking piece of of Med- rare Prime..And whats in those red potatoes they look good.

 

I agree, those shrimp hearts are to die for, very clever.  How did you get them to stick together?

Yes lots of love went into my dish, I say I love you with meat lol.  It was just hard to get a good carve on the roast because it was rather small and hubby is no expert.  I think I could've carved it better myself but he was my valentine and he wants to be the carver so I let him. 

The potatoes, just plain boiled potatoes, then tossed in a little olive oil and fresh dill.  And I didn't show it in the picture but I smother them in hollandaise too haha!

Sorry for the link, can't get my photobucket pic to appear on the reply.

 

Nice work!

The only criticism I would have... and it's meant constructively. so please don't take it wrong.. next time pipe your whipped cream, don't use an aerosol can.
