are you cooking for valentines day or do you plan to dine out?

lipsticknladdles @lipsticknladdles (814) • Philippines 9 Feb 09

i know it would take awhile to be seated when we decide to dine out, unless we made reservations. I know it will save me a little money if I will just cook the meal myself. I love to cook and I think my husband will appreciate it....
