Strawberry and Banana Smoothies!

On the bike ride home from dropping the girls at school today
my little man and I decided that we were going to make a
'Banana and Strawberry Smoothie' for our morning tea. 

We added frozen bananas, fresh strawberries, ice cubes and milk and whizzed it all up together.

 

Very simple and delicious.....

Do you have a favourite Smoothie flavour?

 

Valentine's Day!

This morning I baked some cupcakes for afternoon tea for the kids and also a simple chocolate cake with fresh cream for our dessert tonight.

 

We haven't planned anything extra special. An exchange of cards and chocolates is about as fancy as it will get this year. Maybe a 'childfree' date night in the near future might be on the cards.

Hopefully we will be celebrating a little more next year as we've been together 20 years.

It's lovely to have a day dedicated to showing someone how much you love them, but I think showing how much you love someone each and everyday is more meaningful. Not to say that giving and receiving cards, flowers, chocolates and small gifts isn't nice too!

How do you celebrate Valentine's Day?
