Valentine's day keto 😐

(Cassandra Higdon) #1

So what do you do for Valentine’s day… ???
I had hoped to go to a nice restaurant - but not a whole lot of keto options here… And it’s not exactly like I can buy my guy chocolates as he’s keto too. I guess giving him a nice bottle of bourbon would work - but that’s not exactly keto either :laughing::laughing::laughing:

Lmao

You can’t go wrong with a big asssteak and a nice salad.

I asked for flowers, and a reservation at a fancy steak house! I hope he’ll buy me a card too, I just love this stupid holiday :smile: Do I still miss the candy 15 years out? You bet I do! Oh well :woman_shrugging:t2:

Bourbon is absolutely Keto! Or you can be like my wife and make bacon roses with meat stick stems :heart_eyes:

Wow!!! That lady is one heck of an amazing human!!! :heart:

I was also thinking heart-shaped fat bombs.

And steak placed on top of sauteed spinach that has been fashioned into a heart!

You can go to pretty much any restaurant and order a piece of meat with some veggies.

I don’t really celebrate Valentine’s Day myself. I think it’s a dumb made up holiday.

(Mike W.) #11

I agree. She’s an awesome, thoughtful lady.

It’s a tough time I think, since the holiday is focused on stupid carbs. I used to give flowers, but switched to cheesecakes and strawberries, which as been the tradition for 10 years now. However, since we are both keto now, I can’t really give much. She will be traveling back form San Francisco on Valentines day, so I doubt she would want much anyway. We’ll go out to Bonefish Grill (parents’ night out from PTA) the Friday after–and that should be good. I got her a card also, which actually out son picked out.

TL;DR: Just show you care!

Hey Ethan, thought you might like something like this, if you’re missing out on cheesecakes since you both started Keto:

There are tons of other simple cheesecake themed Keto snacks online if a nutty one isn’t your preference.

I just could stand the thought of cheesecake lovers missing out if they didn’t have to, after I read your post! :laughing:

They look awesome! Sadly, she won’t eat almond butter or stevia, but I will!

“Olive you!” So sweet!! :two_hearts: and the heart-shaped cheese!! :heart_eyes:

(Mike W.) #16

And heart shaped chocolate fat bombs! She’s the best.

(Cassandra Higdon) #17

How’d everyone’s Valentine’s day go??? Lol I ended up doing just a card. Sigh. But he liked it so yay!
