Planning
a romantic dinner isn't just about
the food (although it does help
if you can at least boil an egg)
but about how you bring the whole
thing together.
Start
early to get everything just right.
Make a menu of what you will be
preparing.
A starter - could be soup,
prawn salad, bread, etc.. (If you
are not very good in the kitchen
you can pick up soups and other
great appetizers in your local supermarket.)
The main course - again the
main course doesn`t have to be fancy
as long as it is something that
you will both enjoy. Curry perhaps,
or pasta
For dessert - if your baking
skills aren't up to scratch the
desserts on the market are endless
you will have no problem picking
one up.
Prepare
for cooking
Now you have prepared your menu
go out and buy the ingredients (don`t
forget the wine.) Start cooking
early so that it is ready in plenty
of time then all you have to do
is heat it up. This is a great way
to enjoy your meal without having
to jump up half way through your
appetizer to make sure the main
course isn't burning.
Have
a tidy around
Make sure that all toys, books,
clutter are stowed away and that
the house is generally tidy (you
don`t want the down stairs to be
presentable then have him go to
the toilet where he will find your
dirty laundry all over the floor.)
Make
yourself presentable
Have a long bubble bath and take
the time to pamper yourself. Paint
your nails, do your hair, put on
some make up, and wear your sexiest
dress and heals.
Set
the mood
It is no good preparing a romantic
meal if the setting isn't right.
Cover the table with a fancy table
cloth, put out your best dishes
and cutlery, napkins, place a centre
piece in the middle of the table,
light some candles and play some
soft music in the background. Chill
the wine and get out the crystal
glasses.
Now
all you have to do is serve him
dinner.
Although
it isn't as easy as you might have
thought it to be it is definitely
worth all the effort and he will
really appreciate it. Not to mention
he will definitely be feeling frisky
tonight.
