Going out for Valentine’s Day is for suckers.  I usually cook at home for that holiday.  I’ll be bachloring  it solo as my wife is at a sewing retreat.   Probably will make something she doesn’t like 

 

Valentine's Day in general is for suckers, but when one is in a relationship with a person much less cynical than oneself, one makes a nice dinner, at the very least. In her benevolence and understanding, Ms. Alex granted me permission to play pickleball on Friday night, so Saturday will probably be a seafood melange (lobster tail meat, Gulf shrimp, scallop) in a tarragon-butter sauce, pan-roasted Brussels sprouts, and oven-roasted potatoes.

 

ETA: Sprouts will be finished with dill and Maldon salt. Potatoes will be seasoned with kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, Hungarian paprika, and piment d'Espelette. Wine will be a new-to-me chardonnay from Argentina..
