Guys - Valentine gift!

Idea to make her feel special tonight, especially if money is tight as it is for many of us. Make her a salad, through in a few rolls on the side, and if you can afford it, a nice bottle of "local" wine. My favorite for the salad is spinach, kale, some beet greens, tomato, and to top it off, some culinary flowers to add color, taste, and the thought that you went to the trouble of getting her flowers you both could enjoy. Yes, you eat the culinary flowers! At this time of year, I would add some bacon, fried and patted dry, crumble over the top as a garnish, with the flowers as well! Share in a large bowl with two forks. For a light dressing, some vinegar and oil with a little water and some favorite fresh herbs finely chopped. You could do a "fancy" meal for you both at home for less than going out, and mean a whole lot more from the effort you put into fixing it for you both.
