Saint Valentines eleven

Saint Valentines eleven

Dan n I have always hated crowds, so since we got our jelebu homie, I've decided to cook him a special valentines' dinner, instead of going out there, fight for parking, cramp with other couples' tables , subject to fixed menus, n have ur food delayed

Dan got to do the menu selection, So I decided to get a lil creative n emulated the SATC moment when Big n Carrie dined at home. (cos Laos asked me "ey why u dining at home still wear so nice, & I went "cannot wear nice at home meh!" , defensive n everything



Glam-ed up the moment in 5 mins using google search m Microsoft word

This was the main course after the shrooms n brats

This round the meatsauce was, I dare say, my personal best



Not easy ok
First time I tried in the past, I thought all pasta sauce worked right out of the jars == sour!

The last time I tried was ok after adding brown sugar.

This time I experimented adding brown sugar and, wait for it...
Beef & herb gravy
The type u buy in powder sachets to pour over steak
It was a leap of faith n instinctive move too




Dan loved it n I thought it was good too
We even had it again today as i made a large pot n fridged what we couldn't finish


As usual it made me happy to see Dan slurping away n looking so contented

There u go, a simple valentine! It's enough for us.



Presents?

We buy each other stuff all the time
