Red Dinner has become a HUGE Valentines Day tradition at our house. Kelly began this tradition long ago when the kids were little with just a few red items served as part of the meal. Since that first meal it has progressed to EVERYTHING is red - including the red heart shaped butter, the red heart shaped ice cubes in the glasses, yes even red bread! This meal is a lot of fun. As Kelly admits however - it is a ton of work. Many of the red items need to be prepared in advance - like the butter and ice cubes. In recent years we have shared red dinner with family and friends and it always puts smiles on everyone's faces to see the final product. I am amazed at what this meal has evolved to over the years - and it is just one of the ways my amazing wife has continued to bring joy and laughter to this family. Her hard work and extra effort is our gain - she is truly an amazing lady with so much creative talent - it even comes out in the food she prepares on nights like red dinner night. Last night Kelly capped of the amazing red meal with little heart shaped red velvet cakes with red cream cheese icing - YUM! EVERYTHING is better with cream cheese icing. Hats off to Kelly for another successful and amazing red dinner - can't wait for next year!

Sisney,
That's a lot of red food coloring. But it looks really cool. The Irish with their green have nothing on guys.
That was excellent! I cannot wait for Green Dinner next month! :)
