The Aphrodisiac Cookbook
"I invited him over for dinner. I really didn't know what to expect. I wasn't feeling real sexy before he got there. I'm not the best cook in the world, so I was a little frantic trying to get everything to come out right. But I guess the planets were aligned correctly because everything was perfect. The entree didn't burn, he showed up on time, a first, with flowers and bottle of wine in hand, and the white chocolate-strawberry trifle convinced him that he didn't need to leave quite as soon as he had planned."
