Food Is My Weakness
You know how the saying goes… The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach.
That’s definitely true for me! If you cook for me, I’m at your mercy.
This weekend, I was treated to a wonderful dinner by Graham. You’re going to get hungry just hearing about it.
He started with a tasty salad that had Green Goddess dressing, feta cheese that was seasoned with tomato and basil, walnuts and chickpeas. The main course was whole wheat fettucine with homemade tomato alfredo sauce. He served it with freshly baked garlic cheese bread and Pinot Grigio. Needless to say, I was in heaven.
I lit candles all over my living room and then started a fire in the fireplace for us to eat by. Of course, there had to be music too. We listened to the soulful sounds of Amy Winehouse, Adele, John Legend, Etta James, courtesy of Pandora Radio on my iPhone. One of my all-time favorite songs came on too…
- You’re just too good to be true
Can’t take my eyes off of you
You’d be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
It was Lauryn Hill’s rendition of “Can’t Take My Eyes Off of You.”
After a romantic meal, we went to see Paranormal Activity. It freaked me out, but neither of us liked it as much as it had been hyped. I did jump at the very end, and he laughed about that later. Ha! What can I say? It surprised me. 
I had a very nice weekend. The food was delicious and there were a lot of special moments… but I think the most important element is talking. Graham and I can talk for hours, and that means a lot to me. If a man doesn’t have ideas, opinions, and insights to discuss, there’s just no future. Thankfully he and I have plenty to share with each other.
