A Very Happy Valentine's Day

I hope everyone had a beautiful Valentine's Day yesterday. It was a really simple but beautiful day, and I hope that everyone, single or attached, had the chance to be with someone they love!

Heck, Valentine's Day should be everyday shouldn't it? Why should the price of flowers and chocolates be ridiculously high just one day of the year, with frantic looking men scurrying about with a look of sheer panic written all over their faces? xx

Showed up to work, only to receive a surprise delivery...
Beautiful roses from my oh-so-perfect boyfriend! 
It was a very good thing that I had bought him a surprise gift too... a fancy pants Armani Watch. He promptly spent 20 minutes reading the manual and figuring out the dials. Boys!
We went off for dinner and had a lovely degustation at Yoshii, with paired sake - starting off with the avocado tofu topped with caviar...
..an entree of trio (a crappy photo of very interesting food)...
...lightly seared tuna on a bed of chocolate (mm!) and edamame and cherries...
Almost-rare lamb  -so good! 
Spanner crab with shiitake mushroom...
Absolutely delicious sushi platter - fresh and utterly sublime!
Chocolate tempura, rhubarb sorbet and brandy ice cream. Nom.
