Valentine’s Day is my most favorite holiday. I celebrate by giving chocolate and other sweets to my girlfriends and coworkers. It is the best day ever. It’s been several years since I’ve attempted homemade truffles. I may try it again this year using Ina Garten’s recipe.

The recipe is for Chocolate Mousse Cheesecake at Mangio Dasola’s blog. It’s one of the most elegant and easiest (although there are several steps, so plan ahead) desserts I’ve ever made. It’s to die for!

My husband and I have “Bistro” night. We pick a theme (this year will be Vietnamese) and make appetizers we’ve never made before. The more exotic, the better. We prepare them together and then share them together while practicing our dancing to some wonderful music.
