Frankly, we say just eat more watermelon for blood flow, fennel for plant estrogens and Champagne for the hell of it!

According to Nation’s Restaurant News, the leader in reporting trends to the restaurant industry, the old standards are out and for the summer of 2010, its all about exotics. Passion fruit and mango juice are popular flavors as well as elderflower syrups and that naughty spice, ginger. Watermelon, which we know can improve a man’s sex life in a similar fashion to Viagra, is also hot, hot, hot.

If you want to invent your own cocktail for your summer bash, make sure there’s a balance of sweetness and tartness for a truly memorable drink.

            Eating should be a beautiful act.  It is sensual and very telling of a person’s physical awareness.  Everyone should take a moment and consider their decorum when enjoying a meal; cleanliness, noisiness, and what the face and hands are doing.  While the food culture discusses, without end, eating with the use of sexual entendre and parallels so many take the etiquette of dining lightly?  I believe that a person that doesn’t care much about eating habits must have a similar indifference to many aspects of life.  On the contrary, adventurous and involved people make for exciting eaters. 

            How you are about eating you are about love.   It may just be a theory but it has good reasoning.  Have you ever met an unadventurous eater that was exciting between the sheets? A clumsy eater that was coordinated and smooth with his/ her hands? I haven’t nor have I known of any.   

            We enjoy watching the way a strawberry is eaten. Will it be quick and mostly teeth or are the lips going to wrap themselves and cling until the berry is quietly swallowed.  Whereas slurping drinks down and chomping while talking is not polite behavior and doing so can be taken as disrespect.

            I’m not trying to make the dinner date an anxiety-ridden experience but I do believe it is important to emphasize the importance of etiquette.  It is part of the exterior and, being human, we do take what we observe and apply them to our decisions and judgments.  Making a good impression is important but how well are you demonstrating sensuality and thoughtfulness? 

            Maybe I am making too much of this.  Perhaps my interpretation of the act of eating should not be used to predict the intimacy.  But I don’t believe that I’m alone in this opinion whether or not foodies or gourmet mention it in some way they consider the connection. But, let me know what you think?

Think you don’t have a wine mood? The Hopes will show you that you do. (We’ve tried it. We’re the converted.) The one limitation is that you can only select from Hope Family’s Liberty School wines. (Lucky for all of us, Liberty School makes very good wine.) Once you select the wine you feel like drinking, you’ll be given a series of choices about the situation, for example, are you “flying solo or with an entourage”? Based on your answers, the ap provides you with a custom-made playlist from grooveshark.com. (Once you get the hang of it, you will find that you can apply the program to your favorite non-Liberty School wines. Hey, the Hopes still get the glory every time you use the ap even if they don’t get all of your sales!)
