Ignite the Flame - Something Hot In the Kitchen...Besides You

The age old adage remains: The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. There are a few sure fire ways to put a smile on your guy’s face: feeding him is one of them.

Whether you are naturally gifted or have to work at it a little, the end result is the same. Your thoughtfulness and love will show through in whatever you prepare. So maybe you don’t feel so much like a Martha Stewart. Don’t fret!

• Try something like a simple pasta dish followed by ice cream with homemade cookies (buy pre-made dough if you have to).
• If you’re thinking you could give Martha a run for her money, whip up a hearty beef stew and serve with crusty bread. Finish dinner with a warm fruit crisp and your man will be putty in your hands!
• Remember to pair his favorite beverage as well; a nice Spanish Rioja or perhaps a pint of Guinness.

Men love to feel taken care of (remember girls: it’s primal for them) and a little home cooking from his lady love will be sure to light a spark between the two of you. So don the apron (and apron only if you wish) and inspire a scorching hot evening!
