Ooohhh...but you're thinking "Oh Head Chef and Recipe Maven Extraordinaire, you never gave us a theme!!". You're right. This makes it even more challenging now doesn't it.
Or, I've just been busy between filling orders, being sick, and dealing with our Tristan situation and I came up with this by the seat of my pants.
Post a romantic meal! V-Day is Monday and a lot of us will be celebrating this weekend so this is the perfect time!
I'm still taking sign ups for Featured Cookie. If you want in, let me know. I hope to have enough signed up by the end of the week so I can post a new schedule.

Re: Let's open the club shall we?
I died laughing reading the intro to these recipes, but the menu they present sounds appealing to me! http://www.divinedinnerparty.com/easy-romantic-dinner-recipe.html
Included in that menu (geared towards guys making dinner for their special someone) were recipes for:
White Sangria
Caesar Salad
Creamy Linguini with Shrimp
Strawberry Tiramisu
Although, all of these recipes were given romantic/sexy names.
These are a few of the dessert recipes that arrived in my email today. Thank you Betty Crocker!
