Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day! Ross and I had a great day today which started with giving each other our gifts - Peter Alexander PJs for Ross (thanks for your help picking them out Kate!) and Thomas Sabo cherry earrings and necklace for me. We then headed to the gym before 8am.

After the morning workout, we headed to Lake Titiwangsa for a bit of a walk. It was a really nice place to head on the weekend - lots of people out walking, bike riding, picnicking. The track around the lake is about 2.6km so it may become one of my regular walking spots. You also get a good view of the city - KL Tower, Petronus Towers etc.

We did a quick bit of shopping on the way back to prepare for our romantic dinner. The afternoon was spent on the couch with a bottle of Savi Blanc watching Pretty Woman - a pretty good way to kill the afternoon!

I bought back a bottle of Chambord Liqueur (black raspberry flavoured) from Aus so we made up a Chambord Mojito (as seen in the picture). It was beautiful! In case you were wondering how to make it:

• Lime segments
• 8 mint leaves
• 1/2 tsp brown sugar
• Muddle the above ingredients in a tall glass
• Add ice, 45ml of white rum, 15ml of Chambord
• Top with soda and stir

For dinner, Ross and I made crab and potato cakes with pomegranate and feta salad (thanks to Kathy McKinnis' recipe from Kuwait) and sat on the balcony with a bottle of Rose. I made up a bit of a trifle with fresh berries, Chambord, sponge biscuits and cream for dessert - delicious!

What a wonderful day!
