Things That Are Currently Making Me Happy:

1. Hilarious girls night out last night that included people watching at the W (some seriously freaky people go there), chips, guac and margs at Barrio and the cops pulling us over because they thought the friend we were picking up on the corner where she lives was a prostitute.

2. Taking a Valentine's cooking class with El Jefe at Cooks of Crocus Hill in Edina tonight. We will learn how to make and enjoy with some bubbly: Baked Herbed Mussels on the Half Shell; Arugula, Avocado and Pistachio Salad with Champagne Dressing; Artichoke Risotto with Truffle Oil; Truffled Buckwheat Polenta Hearts with Oysters and Champagne Beurre Blanc and Crystallized Ginger Truffles.

3. Snacking on fresh blueberries all day. They're SO good.

4. Action packed Valentine's Day that involves baking cupcakes for my Valentine, cocktails at the Graves, Annie at The Orpheum and a late dinner at Mission with close friends..then meeting up with even more friends at the W for drinks and house music by Big Mama J and Patrick James.

5. A week from today at this time I will be enjoying a Mexican breakfast outdoors with my husby, overlooking the Sea of Cortez, whale spotting and prepping to ride ATVs on the beach and in the mountains. We're going totally off the grid - no cell phones or laptops for 5 days, and I cannot wait.
