Valentine's Day Breakfast in Bed

Serving someone breakfast in bed is a love language unto itself. Make that breakfast French toast and bacon or sausage and you can call yourself fully fluent. This is pretty simple to pull together. You can play around with the ingredients and add or remove some according to your preference. And don't forget to place a flower on the tray.

• 2 tbsp of milk
