Help needed for romantic dinner! ( Archived) (82)

I agree, I wouldn't want to share this with a man either.

Lets hope not

One of the biggest hits I ever made for a date (besides homemade pizza) was a delightful Polynesian appetizer. You take fresh chicken livers, attach a water chesnut to each, wrap in a piece of bacon, hold it together with a toothpick, and deep fry...doesn't take long. Be sure to soak up the excess grease. They are delicious....of course, it does necessitate that one likes chicken livers.

Good luck with your dinner.

A woman after my own heart!

Hi other Karen....I recommend a visit to M&S foods dept! This allows you to concentrate on your self before the date, and THE date during the date, - without the worry of having spoiled something.

Besides, if you own up to having help from Marky Spark, in order to focus your attention on the 'company', I bet he'd be flattered. Just this once.

The important thing is NOT to put yourself out too much to impress if this is a first 'occassion'. If you realise through the evening that he's not what you hoped, then you haven't wasted too much sweat over it.

AND, if you're delighted with what you find - "because he's not JUST a man" (said in deep sultry M&S TV advert voice! haha!), then there's no time wasted on the pots and pans!!

Myself, I'd opt for a 'man' meal - something with mashed spuds!

Enjoy!
