Recipe: Start Valentine’s Day Right and Treat Your Sweetie to a Plate of My Favorite Orange-Heart Waffles!

My homemade favorite Orange-Heart Waffles

Show your Valentine a little extra love this morning with a plate of delicious, heart-shaped homemade orange waffles for breakfast.  They are light and bursting with orange flavor that can help give Valentine an energizing start to this special day.

Can you imagine your Valentine’s pleased face when the yummy smell starts filtering through the house? He will be rushing to find out what possibly be possibly so scrumptious that you are making.  

Then once he finally digs in, he won’t be able to stop complimenting you for this thoughtful little way to show him how caring you are.  He will be beaming at you for this simple, but romantic gesture to make for a beautiful day.

For those that prefer a plain waffle, I have another incredible recipe to share.  You can top it with a decadent strawberry sauce.  Check out the photo.  I warn you that it will make you hungry.

My Favorite Orange Waffles

2 cups of sifted flour
2-1/2 tablespoons of sugar
3 teaspoons of baking powder, leveled
½ teaspoon of salt
4 eggs, slightly beaten
4 tablespoons of melted butter
1-1/3 cups of milk
1 tablespoon of vanilla extract
3 tablespoons of grated orange rind 
1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon

Sift the dry ingredients together in your mixing bowl.

In a separate mixing bowl, combine the eggs, milk, melted butter, and orange rind until mixed through.

Now take half of the dry ingredients and mix with an equal amount of the moistened ingredients from your second mixing bowl.

Beat well after combining until incorporating all the ingredients for a smooth batter.  

Preheat and grease your waffle iron until the ready light comes on.

Pour about 3/4 cup of batter into your iron at a time.  (If the batter gets too thick, you can add a bit more milk and beat through).  Bake your waffles until golden brown or that iron light change colors.

ENJOY!

This Valentine's Day turning up the heat in your relationship and making it one to remember can come true with Fling Eau de Parfum Spray.  One whiff and he'll be hooked on you like a sweet addiction from the jasmine, lavender, and notes of pumpkin pie to seduce followed by black current, plum, raspberry, apple, jasmine, nutmeg, cinnamon, musk and rare woods.  Trust me, Fling will ignite his passion as it sets his senses aflame.  

Other Harvey Prince Natural Perfumes to help your heart soar and welcome in romance can be found in the "Love Potion" Trio of Mini Perfumes of Eau Flirt, Eau Fling, and Coupling.

Eau Fling, Eau Flit and Coupling Mini Perfumes

For those looking for a new love, I highly recommend Eau Flirt.  Ladies, there is science behind this formula that I coined a "man magnet" with pumpkin pie and lavender notes, known to stimulate a passionate response from men  and the perfect blend of sweet lavender, citrus, jasmine, freesia, ylang ylang and delicately spiced with nutmeg, cinnamon, and ambers for subtle warmth.   Be prepared for more male attention than you ever thought possible.  

Taking the next step, the Eau Fling mini perfume in this trio will set your guy on fire with desire for YOU with a seductive onslaught of floral, fruits, and earthy musk and exotic woods.  This is heart-pounding, and raw passion that will make his resistance futile.  

For those prepared for the next step to happily ever after, Harvey Prince has added Coupling in this "Love Potion" trio with pumpkin, wild gardenia, fresh cucumber, nutmeg, jasmine, marigold, patchouli, and vanilla to help keep that bliss alive!

Keep Romance Alive--Start on Valentine's Day!

There are countless ways to show your love to keep romance burning.

Sometimes, we get too involved with work, chores, kids, and a million other things that crossover and distract us.  However, Valentine's Day is the perfect time to show your partner some true appreciation. 

Leave little love notes around the house where your husband will be sure to find them.  Try slipping one under his pillow or in the pocket of his coat jacket.  Tell him you miss him and can't wait to see him later.

Be sure to get up first before the family.  Get dressed and groomed because taking care of being a woman is just as important as a being a mommy!  Husbands notice when you're doing your best to always look attractive for them. 

Despite the kids arguing over the television or something else, it always pays to never let a  husband leave the house without you walking him to the door.  Always send him off with a kiss--not a criticism.  This ritual is important and just another small way to show him you care.

As silly as you may think, husbands will remember to call you from the office just to hear your voice, if possible.  Appreciating your partner will be returned. 

Valentine's Day is the perfect time to start.  You don't have to go overboard on fancy expensive gifts.  However, a small box of chocolates or his favorite meal can mean the difference in your relationship.  

Remember, keeping romance burning takes work.  To be sure, your efforts won't go unnoticed.  The passion brewing between you and your partner can only get stronger!
