Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day is a busy day for anyone who works in the food industry.  We have to work and usually work late. 

Make cookies and give them away.  Gluten free cookies can be good.  My favorite cookie happens to be peanut butter with chocolate chips.  Have you tried the peanut butter cookies made of only peanut butter, sugar, and eggs?  There are tons of recipes out there.  I like THIS one.

So what does the significant other of a Chef get for the celebration?

Well, in my case, I have to admit, I'm not very creative with gifts any more.  My wife and I have been together for 12 years.  She says she doesn't need anything.  I'm usually too tired to think about it, so I'm thankful she's not needy in that way.  She'd probably think I did something wrong if I went out of my way for Valentine's Day, at this point.  I probably should do it anyway.

Maybe next year.

I hope you've had a great day!  Happy Valentine's Day.

Eat Well,
J.G.
