valentine's day cooking

today i was browsing through my cookbook collection and found one of my favorite cookbooks for valentine's day menus.  this cookbook features recipes from the northwest's favorite romantic inns, wineries, and restaurants.

included are a variety of offerings for breakfast, brunch, appetizers, salads, main dishes and desserts.  the cookbook also offers suggestions for flowers, perfect pairs of wine and cheese, romantic picnic basket ideas, music selections for both dancing and dining, and selections for romantic movie classics.

an entire chapter is devoted to detailed descriptions of the locations featured in the recipe section.  romantic lodgings, restaurants, inns, and bed and breakfasts are described with suggestions for visiting in the near future.

i think i might just try the champagne waffles, made with champagne to create a bubbly batter !  sounds amazing for breakfast... and maybe the chocolate dip for two for a post dinner treat.
