Charcuterie Board Date Lunch

Today Jesse and I are celebrating Valentine’s Day. Or just another special day that we can spend alone together. We have decided to go for supper at Hermano’s up the street, maybe make a quick visit to Leo’s and perhaps eventually visit the cemetery. Sounds like my kind of night! Jesse earlier suggested that we go for lunch too, but I didn’t want to overdo it in the food department and have 2 heavy meals so instead he suggested we have charcuterie for lunch.

We chose charcuterie because of the sharing concept of it. We went to the store and picked out stuff together from La Grotta based on both of our preferences. He likes certain things and I like other things and we both came together to enjoy a beautiful charcuterie. We also picked charcuterie because it is really delicious and it can be a bit lighter (depending on what ingredients you have chosen and how much you eat). Afterwards when you are eating everything together you discuss all the ingredients and come together as one to agree and disagree on what you like. Sharing is caring. I couldn’t think of a better way to spend the afternoon with, child-less, with my husband.

We then had a long afternoon nap. Again, child-less. And now we are polishing off some cheese with a glass of wine before we head out to Hermano’s. All in all it’s been a perfect, relaxing day so far and I can’t wait to enjoy the night.

These cheese rolls are to die for. The most buttery, flaky, cheesy delight. You need to try them.
