Valentine treats galore!
On Thursday morning on the Today show, I brought a very nice assortment of Valentine treats and I demonstrated how to make rich chocolate ganache tartlets decorated with pretty meringue hearts. Those recipes can be found in the February issue of Martha Stewart Living and also on my Web site. In fact, in our Valentine's Day center there, creative ideas abound. With our handcrafted gifts and romantic menus for two, you'll find plenty of ways to celebrate. There are galleries for pretty card designs, projects for kids, and sweets galore - more than 50 of our best Valentine recipes. I hope you will all be inspired to make this Valentine's Day extra special. Enjoy!
