Have you ever wanted to stay home on Valentines Day and do something romantic for your sweetie? One of the things my husband loves is my cooking. It is the way to his heart and I know how much he loves it when I make that effort for him. This gave me the idea a few years ago to do a romantic dinner at home and create a romantic tablescape for two! Its fun to go out to dinner somewhere fancy but it's also fun changing it up and doing something different. I created this romantic tablescape to inspire you to change it up a bit and celebrate at home with your sweetheart. You can keep it simple or you can go all out. It's up to you! I'm also including some of the recipes that you can make that are not too complicated and are sure to make your significant other very happy!

Chicken and Noodles over Mashed Potatoes

Main Course, Recipes, Uncategorized · November 28, 2018

This homemade chicken and noodles recipe served over mashed potatoes is a cherished family recipe. I know you're wondering how can you have double starches? Potatoes and noodles? Trust me, this is a delicious combination! Anyone who has ever had this meal loves it. We would have this often when I was growing up and this was one of the first recipes I learned to make when I was young. It has been passed down four generations and originated, as far as I know, from my Great Grandma Stone. This was the first meal I ever made for my husband not long after we met. We were in college at the time, and he and his roommates had helped me move to a different apartment. I wanted to make them dinner as a thank you to them for helping me. I made them this recipe and they loved it. Especially my husband! After he had eaten two giant helpings, he decided he liked me a lot more. I jokingly tell everyone that I didn't have him at hello, I had him at homemade chicken and noodles over

I envisioned a rustic table for Thanksgiving with a green garland and some velvet pumpkins throughout. I started with a tan linen table runner and layered faux green leafed stems, eucalyptus, and some smaller faux sage bunches. I added in a few small white flower stems and some tan colored pinecone picks. I used some rustic candlestick holders with white candles and some turkey shaped salt shakers. I also found some matching turkey place card holders that I'll put place cards in when I have finalized the guest list for Thanksgiving. For the places setting, I used light, neutral colors to create a rustic feel to the table. I used a pretty napkin to add some color and texture and rustic flatware. I used my silver rimmed stemware that meshed perfectly with the other things on the table. I filled the
