Oh, don't you absolutely love decorating for Valentine's Day?
It's such a great holiday to celebrate! Love!
How can anyone go wrong decorating for such a special occasion?
Used Bavarian dishes with sweet little roses that my daughter and son-in-law gifted me with on my last birthday. I LOVE this china and wanted it for a long, long time.
Napkins with great big pink roses covered each dish. You can see what one looked like in the photo at the top of this post.
A rose wreath sat in the middle of the table with a red (of course) candle holder and candle.
Menu: Huevos rancheros (eggs in salsa)
Warm tortillas (big flour ones)
Frijoles (small red beans, smooshed and fried in oil and onions. Served
with sour cream.)
Crisp bacon
Chunks of cantaloupe
Orange juice
Water in
Fresh coffee with half and half
Two pink satiny stuffed hearts served as fork holders.
Tah dah! It turned out to be a "love"ly breakfast celebration for the start of Valentine's week.

Very special and very beautiful! A wonderful way to spend time with your daughter and son in law!
I love your beautiful Valentine's breakfast table. What a special breakfast to make for your daughter and her hubby.
I am ashamed to say I rarely decorate for Valentines day. I just am too exhausted after getting all the Christmas stuff put away. I just can't stand the thought of doing it again in February.
I enjoy everyone's decorations though! Happy Valentines day!
We have a nice dinner at home and exchange cards and usually chocolate! That's enough for me. This year I have some goodies for Tiger also. Hugs, Linda
Looks and sounds so good...wish I had been there too!!
Winter is threatening to really come here tonight! Will see....
How lovely. We don't celebrate it, but I still like to see others decorations.
