Holidays, Valentine’s Day The Easy Way

It’s all about Valentine’s Day this week with

a Valentine Tablescape Blog Hop,

a buffet of ideas for beautiful, romantic, sweet or fun ways

to set your table for Valentine’s Day

❤️

 

You can enjoy a lot of Valentine fun without working too hard…

 

 

 

 

You know the old saying,

“The way to a man’s heart is through is stomach?”

Well let’s update this saying for 2019 and amend it to

“The way to melt anyone’s heart is with wonderful food!”

 

 

 

 

And what about the saying “We eat with our eyes”

What we initially see is going to impact our taste buds,

so presentation is everything!

 

 

 

Simple food in a pretty setting becomes a gourmet dining experience!

 

Petite Cheesecake Boules are made with frozen cheesecake

Fancied up a bit

with a drizzle, a sprinkle, and berries

 

 

 

Since so many people opt to stay home for Valentine’s Day,

Here are a few more party worthy bites to make your day extra special!

Not only will these recipes melt hearts,

they are super easy!

Add a sprinkle of sesame seeds to make them look festive

and grill or broil until done
