What's for Dinner, Mon., Febr. 14, 2022

I'm having a birthday party for my friend. Her birthday is on Valentine's Day, which makes it extra fun.

I went to the Polish deli and bought full dinners, which are stuffed cabbage rolls, breaded flounder, pork meatballs, mashed potatoes, and numerous salads, including carrot, cole slaw, and cucumber.

I also made heart shaped pretzels dipped in white chocolate and dried strawberry bits. Heart-shaped cookies.

She'll be having wine, and I'll be having trilogy kombucha.

and there is a pan of bodacious brownies cooling in the kitchen.

Not much for Valentine's Day, but at least it's Italian food and chocolate!!!

with a shrimp skewer on the side, garlic smashed potatoes and almond green beans. I made mini tart cherry galettes for dessert...they're so CUTE! We're not much of a dessert eating family but I'm looking forward to that part of the meal.

A vegan recipe with mushrooms in place of pork. Way too much spice—my mouth is both on fire from chiles and numb from Szechuan peppercorns.
