What happened to Romance? What happened to bringing or sending flowers to that special someone (other than holidays or anniversaries)? What happened to reading poetry to the one you Love, as a means of expressing feelings and emotions? Has society really taken more emphasis on only raising the kids and maintaining their households and forgotten about the things that started it all? My answer... Romance, It never dies. It can keep getting better, If we let it! As a Private Chef for Hire I would like to share some short stories at the beginning of each chapter, from my personal experiences cooking Private intimate dinners in front of couples at their homes. In many cases when I am hired out, one of the partners has know Idea that I am coming. The element of surprise! I am not an expert in the art of love or one on one relationships between two people or couples. My thoughts and ideas are simple. If couples get into the kitchen and Cook, Together, they can bring spice back into their relationships and marriages. I wrote this book with the hope of not just getting people to explore great old and new recipes with some short stories but to help couples in New relationships and strengthen Old romances, that may be falling apart.
