Valentine's Day

[thesidulus]

My mom passed away a few years ago and my dad still deals with the depression. I really don't think he's moved on yet (I still get major downer days too). Thus, I always feel guilty about going out on special occasions such as Valentine's Day and such with my DH while dad's all by himself. SO... This year, I'm bringing Valentine's to our house! (

For appetizers, I think a salad would be great, esp for people who are health conscious/want something light but filling, also could be a vegetarian option. You can make some creative ones like soba salad... teriyaki chicken salad... etc!

hmm, mini somen salads would be good! I could "plate" them in the tinfoil cupcake liners I have. A little noodles, a some salad, a little fish cake, light dressing... mmm

I wanted to try a thai steak salad, but I think I'll keep that for another get together. Thanks!
