Positively the last word (for this year) on Valentine’s Day
After all your careful planning for tonight’s romantic dinner don’t overlook tomorrow’s breakfast!
Ok, it’s a weekday morning but there’s no reason to send your beloved off to work with a cup of instant coffee and a slice of toast.
Find time today to buy a few oranges (to juice), a pack of freshly roasted coffee and a couple of croissants you can briefly warm through in the oven.
More time? Well, how about a few fresh berries served in a pretty glass bowl topped with some fromage frais or rich, creamy Greek yoghurt with a sprinkle of granola on top. There are plenty of strawberries around but at this time of year you’re likely to have to sweeten them. (Simply cut out any unripe white flesh around the stalk, slice them, sprinkle lightly with caster sugar and leave them for 10 minutes). You could scatter in a few blueberries and raspberries too.
Some smoked salmon and scrambled egg always goes down well with - hell why not, especially if you don’t get up till midday - another glass of champagne. Then back to bed for another snooze, I think . . .
