Remember When Madonna & Michael Jackson Dated?

Red Carpet Confidential: How Will New Mom Kristin Cavallari Spend Valentine’s Day With Fiancé Jay Cutler?
No glitzy date night needed!
Kristin Cavallari can’t wait to celebrate her first Valentine’s Day as a new mom at home with her Chicago Bears quarterback fiancé Jay Cutler and their six-month-old son Camden.
“I like cooking better, so I’ll probably make dinner, and we’ll have a really romantic evening once the baby goes to bed,” the reality star, 26, tells me during Gillette’s Kiss and Tell National Experiment at Pioneer Court in Chicago. “I don’t think we’re going to do anything that exciting. It’s just about easy and simple and being in our own bed. [laughs]”
Making the most of their alone time together has become a priority since their son was born.
“Now you have to make time for the relationship,” she says. “Before, it was all about the two of us, so that was easy. But now, the time we spend together is more meaningful because we don’t have as much time together, so when you make time, you want to make the most of it.”
OK! GALLERY: KRISTIN CAVALLARI SHOWS OFF HER SLIM POST-BABY BODY IN WHITE SKINNY JEANS
Their favorite date night tradition?
“Well, we’re a little bit late to the party, but we’ve been watching Homeland season two — we’re in the middle of season two. That’s what we’ve been doing together lately is watching that.”
The only thing Kristin requests is that her man shave.
“I prefer a clean-shaven face,” she says. “When you kiss a guy and they have stubble, my chin always ends up really red and kind of raw. [laughs]”
Are you like Kristin, and prefer to stay home, or do you insist your man take you out? What are your Valentine’s Day plans? Tell us in the comments section below, or tweet @okmagazine.

How to make chocolate ?
For a long time I do not eat store-bought chocolate because hardly eat sugar and do not know what they contain chocolates that are sold. If there is one thing that will greatly affect the way you look - it's sugar. Stop it for one month and appreciate the difference. Note that you need to read food labels because sugar is where you might expect - in crayfishes (not crab, and of cod and other ingredients), soy sauce, mustard, ketchup ...
Chocolate Products
250 g cocoa butter
80 g coconut oil
100 g cocoa
50 g of honey (2.5 tablespoons) becomes as black, not sweet chocolate, try before you put cocoa and if you add honey
* at the bottom will give you links to stores, which buy products
Preparation of chocolate
Cocoa butter is solid as soap and must be melted.

Galley (kitchen)
The galley is the compartment of a ship, train or aircraft where food is cooked and prepared. It can also refer to a land based kitchen on a naval base or a particular formed household kitchen.
Ship's kitchen
A galley is the kitchen aboard a vessel, usually laid out in an efficient typical style with longitudinal units and overhead cabinets. This makes the best use of the usually limited space aboard ships. It also caters for the rolling and heaving nature of ships, making them more resistant to the effects of the movement of the ship. For this reason galley stoves are often gimballed, so that the liquid in pans does not spill out. They are also commonly equipped with bars, preventing the cook from falling against the hot stove.
A small kitchen on deck was called a caboose or camboose, originating from the Dutch: kombuis which is still in use today. In English it is a defunct term used only for a cooking area that is abovedecks.
Household kitchen
The term Galley kitchen is also used to refer to the design of household kitchen wherein the units are fitted into a continuous array with no kitchen table, allowing maximum use of a restricted space, and work with the minimum of required movement between units. Such kitchens increase storage space by working vertically, with hanging pots, dish racks, and ceiling-hung cabinets common. Strictly, the term refers to a kitchen with the units in two facing lines, but is often used to refer to U-shaped kitchens as well.
The first mass-produced galley kitchen design was known as the Frankfurt kitchen, designed by Margarete Schütte-Lihotzky, working under the direction of Ernst May in 1926 for a Frankfurt housing estate. 10,000 units were installed in Frankfurt, and it was the most successful and influential kitchen of the period.
Aviation kitchen
The Douglas Aircraft DC-3 was the first airplane with a planned galley for food service.[2] Galleys on commercial airlines typically include not only facilities to serve and store food and beverages, but also contain flight attendant jumpseats, emergency equipment storage, as well as anything else flight attendants may need during the flight.Aircraft in operation today mainly use the familiar trolley system. This system was introduced in the late 1960s at the same time as a new generation of large "widebody" aircraft were entering into service with the airlines. The significantly larger number of passengers on these aircraft meant that meals could no longer be efficiently delivered by hand, as they had been up until that point.
There are two main sizes of trolley in use with the airlines around the world, called the "ATLAS" and "KSSU" sizes. ATLAS is by far the most common size with approximately 80% of airlines using it. Remaining users of KSSU include KLM and Cathay Pacific.
Airbus has developed a new galley concept called SPICE - presented 2010, which they publicise as a potential new worldwide standard with significant advantages over the current 40 year old trolley technology.
Werner Sell
The first airplane kitchen was invented (patent) by Werner Sell (Georg Robert Werner Sell) of Germany in 1930; the first fitted kitchens were delivered 1954, by 1955 Lufthansa had all their commercial planes fitted with a Sell galley.[citation needed] In 1955 Sell also began fitting train coaches with kitchens, from 1960 on with the newly developed convection oven. The Frankfurt kitchen needed an exact space, whereas the Sell kitchen could be fitted anywhere.
