Oh, today is the day. Valentine’s Day is one of those days where you can either acknowledge it’s existence (with embrace or hatred) or just completely ignore it altogether. Personally, I only enjoy it for the food, as a day devoted to candy and baked goods is completely fine in my book. And whether or not you have a special someone to share it with, who’s to say you can’t enjoy a little R&R? So tonight, my fellow foodies, kick back with one of the following films. If we can’t be endlessly romantic on this greeting card holiday, at least we can be in love with food:

 

My Big Fat Greek Wedding + Greek Style Braised Lamb Shanks

 

Chocolat + Homemade Chocolate Truffles


Julie & Julia + Julia Child’s Beef Bourguignon


No Reservations + Spaghetti Oreganata with Tomato Sauce


Ratatouille + … Ratatouille (duh)

Really, though. Valentine’s Day is just another day to self-indulge in the things you love most — sweets, treats, fattening foods and cocktails. And what could be better, really? Nothing I can think of.

If you don’t believe me, I’ve laid out what I think is a successful Valentines Day “menu.” Really. I wish I had all of these things:

BREAKFAST:

Chocolate Crepes with Raspberry Sauce

LUNCH:

Be-My-Valentine Pizza

MID-AFTERNOON SNACK:

Heartfelt Cookies

APPETIZER:

Blue Cheese Heart Tarts

DINNER:

Apple-Stuffed Pork Roast

COCKTAIL:

Pomegranate-Champagne Punch

DESSERT:

Be-My-Valentine Strawberry Tart

NIGHT CAP:

Raspberry Chocolate Kiss Cocktail
