You can find these delicious Ghirardelli chocolates at any Walmart near you, just like I found these here. I mean who can go wrong with dark chocolate and strawberry?!

And I can’t think of a better way to show “I love you” than a plate of warm, chocolate pancakes with these adorable little chocolates on the side.

Of course, this being a very special day, you can’t forget the wine to go with the chocolate! I recommend a rich red Cabernet Sauvignon from Josh Cellars.

  1. I recently made chocolate pancakes for the first time and they were great! I don’t have a valentine, I make little gift bags with homemade treats for a few shut ins who live near me. Making them feel special makes me happy and it isn’t hard to do.

  2. Ordinarily I’d say my boyfriend, but since my 86yo Dad is currently living with us recovering from surgery — I guess I have two valentines this year.
