The few days before V-day, Franco spent in bed with a 102° fever. I let him rest and went solo to a birthday/V-day dinner the Friday before V-day at D'Amores with a bunch of friends. It was our friend Yenelli's birthday, and she and her husband Josh set up a long red-covered table complete with red roses at a quaint Italian restaurant here in Camarillo. The pizza there is authentic--we know because Yenelli's been to Italy and has had real Italian pizza. I enjoyed a delicious spinach and apple salad that I tried to recreate a couple times over the last week because it was just that good. I'll share the recipe here soon.
The cakes were amazing--chocolate cake with cream cheese frosting made by Natasha and a sinful red velvet cake with strawberries made by Yenelli herself. I wish I'd gotten better pictures of all our friends, but there's only so much you can do with a phone.
I heart friends.
