I'm one of those girls who loves Valentine's Day. Even when I was single, I embraced it for what it was: an excuse to dress up and eat amazing food. This year, my boyfriend and I decided to stay in and cook something decadent, so we bought lobster tails at our local seafood market and opened a bottle of champagne. Lobster has always been a special-occasion meal for me, but cooking live lobsters can be messy and labor-intensive. The tails are much easier to eat and were perfect for a romantic meal. We had such a fun time together, and I loved having an excuse to dust off my Limoges plates.
