Only in America
If only I’d thought of this when I was single.
Babe is a single New Yorker who has figured out a way to “live a champagne lifestyle on a Budweiser budget”. Her blog Take Me Out For Lunch documents her quest to find the perfect man and the perfect meal. She believes that she can tell a lot about a man on a culinary rendezvous, so her blog invites potential suitors to take her out to lunch in some of New York’s finest restaurants. So far she seems to be doing quite well. (At the dining that is - the dating doesn’t seem to be bearing much fruit.)
In Babe’s words, “if your man can’t whet your appetite then it is better to wave him goodbye and move on to the next dish until you find one that truly satisfies your tastebuds.”
I can vouch for that. On my first date with O he told me that he was a construction manager and mentioned that had always wanted to build a house around its kitchen. And that was before he even knew that I cooked! Naturally, he had me then and there.

Congratulations, may you have many years of health, good food and great wine, may your children be big and healthy and all good things that you deserve come to you and your husband.
May you cook for your friends and have your friends cook for you and most of all may you smile, not stress and revel in it all.
Congratulations MRS Lunchalot…..
