When everyone else is dining out might be the best time to cook at home.  Cooking for, or with, your Valentine is a great way to enjoy the evening.  My favorite “special” dinner always has some connection to lobster or other seafood.  So we now have a tradition for Valentine’s Day.  Gary prepares the lobster and I add the accents. 

This Valentine’s Day shows a Baja Twist to our dinner, with a side of Mexican rice, black beans and guacamole.  It’s just as good the traditional way with a salad, a baked potato and corn on the cob. 

Did you know that most seafood stores will actually steam your lobster for you at no additional cost?  Then all you have to do is brush the lobster halves with butter or olive oil and grill until they are heated through. 

Happy Valentine’s Day!
