Of red roses and macarons - and Valentines

So what do you have planned for Valentine's Day? Champagne, a romantic candlelit dinner, a walk along the beach? Whatever it is, hope it's a good one.

My day began beautifully when I picked up these heart-shaped macarons from Adriano Zumbo (the heart box is my own). We will have them tonight, after our Valentine barbeque.

And this amazing heart cake was in the Zumbo shop today - wonder which lucky person will be having this for dessert?
