TWO FORKS, TWO KNIVES, ONE PLATE

TWO FORKS, TWO KNIVES, ONE PLATE
by Michael Webb

Have you ever watched Lady and the Tramp? If I ask you what is the
first thing that comes to mind, you probably would say the scene
where they are sharing a plate of spaghetti.

There is no doubt about it, food is romantic. It amplifies the senses
and fulfills one of our deepest needs. There are certain types of
food that are romantic by nature: chocolate, strawberries and small
pastries for example. Then there are foods that are romantic because
of the atmosphere: surrounded by candles, elegant music playing in
the background, or served on a linen covered table with a vase of
fresh flowers.

Who would have thought that a plate of spaghetti could be so
romantic? But Lady and the Tramp showed us that sharing one plate is
a perfect way to be united with one another. Have you ever eaten off
the same plate as your love? How often do you feed each other? When
was the last time you shared a strand of spaghetti or a baby corn
and ended in a kiss?

Everyone has to eat. But not everyone has to have their own plate.

And here are some more great romantic tips...
