Valentine's Day is named in
honor of Saint Valentine, who lived during the
Roman times. There is a belief that when
Valentine died, he left a note to his jail
keeper's daughter which was signed, "Your
Valentine." People have been sending similar
messages to their loved ones since then.
It's
the time of year to celebrate
romance again.
Actually, it's always the time of year to
celebrate romance, but this is the time that
society, at the prodding of greeting card and
chocolate manufacturers, sets aside especially
for such amorous
festivities.
Every
February, across the country, candy,
flowers, and gifts are
exchanged between loved ones, all in the name of
St. Valentine. But who is this mysterious saint
and why do we celebrate this holiday? The history
of Valentine's
Day --
and its patron saint -- is shrouded in mystery.
But we do know that February has long been a
month of romance. St. Valentine's Day, as we know
it today, contains vestiges of both Christian and
ancient Roman tradition. So, who was Saint
Valentine and
how did he become associated with this ancient
rite.
These
Valentine's Day recipes are
a perfect way to celebrate a special relationship
or just treat yourself and your family on
valentine's day. I myself like valentine's day
because it can be such a cozy
time of year,
with the fireplace
crackling and
the house full of good smells from baking and
cooking.
Here
are some tried and true recipes that will add
some romance to your Valentine's Day. After all,
nothing says
LOVING like something from the oven!
Your
sweetheart won't be able to resist these

According
to one legend, Valentine
actually sent the first 'valentine' greeting
himself. While in prison, it is believed that
Valentine fell in love with a young girl -- who
may have been his jailor's daughter -- who
visited him during his confinement. Before his
death, it is alleged that he wrote her a letter,
which he signed 'From
your Valentine,' an
expression that is still in use today. Although
the truth behind the Valentine legends is murky,
the stories certainly emphasize his appeal as a
sympathetic, heroic, and, most importantly,
romantic figure. It's no surprise that by the
Middle Ages, Valentine was one of the most
popular saints in England and France.
I
feel that Valentine
dinners should be special.
Choose your sweetie's favorite foods and surprise
him or her with a wonderful
romantic meal and
a special table set for two. If you have a
fireplace, set a small table close by, and use
your most delicate china and crystal. A few
candles and a small, low bowl of fresh flowers
will complete
the atmosphere. .

Cooking Directions
Allow both crust pouches to stand at room temperature 15
to 20 minutes. Remove one crust from pouch; unfold. Press out fold
lines. If crust cracks, wet fingers and push edges together. Sprinkle 1
teaspoon flour over crust. Turn crust, floured side down, on ungreased
cookie sheet. Using paper pattern as guide, cut crust into heart shape.*
Generously prick heart crust with fork. Bake in a preheated 450-degree
oven 9 to 11 minutes, or until lightly browned. Let cool. Repeat with
the remaining crust.
Combine cream cheese, confectioners' sugar and almond
extract in a small bowl; beat until smooth. Add whipping cream and beat
until thickened.
To assemble, place one heart-shaped pie crust on serving
plate; spread with 1/3 cup of the hot fudge. Carefully spread half of
cream cheese mixture over hot fudge. Spoon 2/3 of the cherry filling
over cream cheese. Spread second crust with remaining hot fudge and
place over filling. Carefully spread with remaining cream cheese
mixture. Spoon remaining cherry filling about 1 inch from edge.
Refrigerate until serving time. Store any remaining torte in
refrigerator.
Makes 8 to 10 servings.
* To make pattern, cut a piece of paper into a heart
shape about 10 1/2 inches high and 10 inches wide.
