Will you be my VALENTINE?

My Valentine's day started off quite well when I answered the door to this box..
Beautiful organic long stem roses from T (of course!). These flowers are so beautiful and no chemicals added to harm the fun!
Then after that I got the Gnosis Raw Chocolate special edition Valentine's Day bar I won from yardsnacker and hihorosie! (I am totally on a winning streak, I also won some coconut butter from them in a different contest!)
We went to the flower and garden show, which was really amazing. Sorry, I forgot to take some pictures of the displays. It was so enchanting and beautiful!
For dinner, T and I stayed in and cooked together. We made garlic and herb brown rice with broccolini and fried tofu. These came out so amazing!! I just love adding lemon on top of broccoli (regular, rabe, and broccolini). It's a match made in heaven (just like T and I!)..HA!
After dinner we headed to the city to Lula's Sweet Apothecary. T ordered a Flurry with peanut butter cups (sorry no pic, he inhaled to fast!). I got a classic sundae. I chose 2 flavors (peanut butter chocolate chip cookie and s'mores) with creme filled cookie and hot fudge on top! They also added some soy whip cream, sprinkles, and a cherry on top! WOW! This was the best vegan ice cream we had both ever had (besides Pure Food and Wine of course). Definitely check out Lula's if you are ever in NYC. AMAZING! :)
That was our Valentine's Day, I hope everyone else had a great one! I am off the next couple of days, so expect to hear more from me soon! :)

I hope you bought that lotto ticket with the win streak you're on! I just love gnosis chocolate esp the peppermint. Mmm...but this one (love-choc) has stuff in it I can't have right now so maybe next year. :) And those roses look beautiful!
