Chuck and I have been trying to really save some $$, so when we talked about Valentine's Day we decided to cancel our reservations at the fancy restaurant and just have V-day at home and cook up some Greek-style food at home. So, we made chicken kabobs, lamb & beef patties as well as some rice-spinach dish that is Greek and I forget the name of and am too lazy to google so as to seem cultured. I really just got on Allrecipes.com and found the recipes, they sounded good, and we could say we were having a Greek-love infused V-day dinner. Anywho, here are some pics of our grub...it ended up being 9:30pm before we ate b/c, well honestly, I was enjoying the wine-part of dinner alot and then got lazy about actually making any food. :) We didn't get around to making the Baked Fudge dessert either. oh well. It was awesome food...especially the chicken! Ohhhh...AND we made Naan from scratch! I was a little nervous b/c I'm not a real good baker person b/c I really hate measuring out stuff and it having to be just the right conditions for a dough to work, etc, so before I even started I made sure to make a comment about how I'm sure the humidity in FL was somehow going to have an ill-effect on my Naan. :) I'm just a pessimist like that sometimes. But it turned out awesome and I had to exhibit some serious self-control so as to not just chow down on the Naan w/ hummus.
