Valentines Day Dinner with Heart/"Strawberry shortcake"

I love celebrating Valentines Day both with our kids and as a couple! My sweet hubby and I decided long ago that our favorite way to honor our love is to get a special date/time alone together that day in trade for all the stuffed animals and trinkets we never really know what to do with and the chocolates that we will, of course, simply eat. (and that's no help with the resolutions)  As for the kids we like to do something small but enough that they know we remembered and love them so very very much!  One of the fun things we have been doing for several years is a  Dessert With Heart/Strawberry shortcake and this year it will be expanding to dinner with a heart. I am thinking with some"hearty" mac and cheese and some "blossoming love" (either broccoli or brussel sprouts)  To make the little hearts is way simple.  Just simply cut at a diagonal and reshape to create the heart. To make "Strawberry shortcake " I use 2 Twinkies frozen strawberries on top
