My love has been out of town for weeks and weeks, And I want to make a romantic dinner for two; Something really special and sexy and delicious, So, I spent days planning the menu and setting the mood. ~ The Menu ~ Appetizers Krug Clos du Mesnil, 2000, Champagne Raw Wellfleet Oysters on the half shell Arugla Salad with Olive Oil and Vinegar dressing Main Course Chateau Ducru-Beaucaillou Saint-Julian, Red Wine Truffles Fettuccine sprinkled with Basil and Red Peppers Steamed Asparagus - Eggplant and Chives Dessert Cacao Chocolate Ice Cream with Almonds Cafe Now, I researched all these foods for one quality, One thing they all have in common, all are aphrodisiacs; Primal, sexy food, believed to enhance love making, It is going to be an evening of passion and romance. I decorated our outdoor deck with strung lights and lanterns, Arranged the table for the best view of the lake; Then, I took a bath with saffron leaves like Cleopatra, And when my love arrived we kissed, and with soulful looks, We went outside to dine. __________________________ October 4, 2015 Poetry/Free Verse/A Romantic Dinner For Two Copyright Protected, ID 15-714-420-0 All Rights Reserved.

Exhausting research to find those aphrodisiac appetizers. Love your theme and how you put everything together. Excellent entry Broken Wings.
