Happy Valentine’s Day!!!

When I was getting married, I had a friend tell me to eat lots of fruit before the honeymoon because it makes your skin taste sweet. I don’t know about that, but it is for sure healthy for you nonetheless. Here is a festive way to serve fruit that is so fun to eat, it’s sure to sweeten up your Valentine’s Day, or to bring a little romance to bridal shower hors d’oeuvres.

Here is all you need: Strawberries, Grapes, (you want the oblong ones, round grapes don’t work as well) and some skewers.

Cut the top off of the strawberries at two 45 degree angles, to create a “V” shape.

Slice your grapes crossways, also at a 45 degree angle.

Spin one half of each grape upside-down so it makes a heart, like this.

Alternate fruits until each skewer is filled.

I have always found Valentine’s Day a little commercial, but it is a good reminder to be thankful for all of the loves in our lives that God has blessed us with, not just the romantic ones but family and friends as well.
