The vacation of love is upon us just as before, and also as you prepare this season’s plan of seduction, keep in mind that food performs as essential a part in stirring interests being a schmaltzy card, eloquent love page, or a romantic present. Strong cheese might appear a turn-off for some, but I may never have ended up with a last name that half my family has trouble pronouncing without it, an assortment of dense, sticky dried fruit, and a chilled flute glass brimming with pale golden champagne. Call me personally a sucker (or an overenthusiastic food-o-phile), but we effortlessly surrendered before these primitive, riverside picnics packed by a determined Frenchman. As well as in protection of strong cheese, Casanova supposedly swore by Roquefort’s capabilities of stimulation.
