With Valentine’s Day coming up this weekend, why not make a day of it? Maybe a morning hike. Take in a great movie, followed by a light lunch. Then a beautiful dinner followed by a dessert nightcap. A raspberry white chocolate martini is one of my favorites to share with my handsome husband.

We plan on staying home for dinner this year, and the menu includes Luxurious Crab Bisque, Surf and Turf, and Lemon Parmesan Roasted Asparagus. The meal is way easier than it sounds. Finish the night with a white chocolate raspberry martini and maybe a piece of dark chocolate.
