Diane had put out wine and chocolate dipped strawberry&#8217;s and chocolate dipped ginger that she&#8217;d made. We had a really relaxing class all to love music of all genres .. reggae to ragas.. After an hour of Diane&#8217;s guided meditation, gentle stretching, music, wine and low lighting we were all totally blissed out.Diane is a wonderful girl to have as my Valentine<\/p>\n<p>We went inside to a feast of red food .. eggplant parmigiana, pasta puttenesca.. then cake..I can hardly move.<\/p>\n<p>I have to admit that i wasn&#8217;t that creative with valentine prep this year. I did get Diane a small pretty azalea which is nice in bright in contrast to the grey ice outdoors these days. For Gabe.. I was at a loss.. ..so I went to Ambrosia.. our favorite candy store at lunch. I asked them if they had any weird shaped chocolate .. The only thing they had was lollipops shaped like a horses head. I got that and some other sheet chocolate.. and made a sweet valentine rendition of that scene from the godfather where the guy wakes up to find the horses head in his bead. (I&#8217;ll spare you the picture from the movie.. but in case you don&#8217;t remember it, you can find it on youtube.. .. it&#8217;s so disturbing, I&#8217;m not even including a link) .
