But you (after you’ve made it) and I know different right?. It is quick, easy and packs a great flavor punch. So, I kinda have this Valentines routine going. Most times. One week before the day I start getting a little grumpy. Because I know that we are not going to go out as all the babysitters themselves are going out to celebrate. As Valentine’s day gets closer, my grumpiness increases exponentially as my Instagram feed get completely overwhelmed with Valentine’s cakes, decorations and very happy people sharing their VERY nice sounding plans. One year there was even someone who surprised their partner with a trip to the Caribbean for Valentine’s Day. Totally over the top right? My grumpiness continues after the day as I then get to see all the loved up couples then posting their amazing experiences for the entire week after that. I mean stop it already peeps, stop it. Jealousy, what jealousy?
This year I decided that since I can’t beat them I will join them and I will join them hard. I can’t go out, but I am bringing valentines home. Yes, I will go OTT with the decorations. Yes, I will cook Freddy some fab meals the entire day. Since I can’t go abroad for Valentine ’s Day I will bring abroad to me in the recipes. Yes, I will bribe the kiddoes with tv programmes so they stay upstairs and let mama and daddy eat in peace. Oh and wait for it, yes you guessed it. I WILL share ALL these recipes on Instagram. Roll on Valentine’s week and day. I am soooooo ready for you. For my Valentine’s day dessert, I figured I would bring a little bit of Africa to my kitchen with a lime, mango and pineapple loaf cake with added shredded coconut all topped with a coconut flavored whipped cream. The best bit is that I can make this the night before so that on Valentine’s Day, I can spend a little less time in the kitchen and a lot more time hanging out a deux.
