Did you know that limousines can actually be cheaper to rent than
using a taxi sometimes? Athena and I have used them before as
transportation to the airport. What a way to start a romantic getaway!

Have an enchanted week. — Michael

I’m glad to see that you had as difficult a time as I did picking the
best entry for last week’s contest. Almost all the stories received
several votes. Winning by one vote was *Wooing from Afar* by Sheryl
Renshaw of Boise, Idaho. Jennifer Love of Parker, Colorado was the
person chosen at random for voting in the contest. Both will have
their prizes mailed out this week.

This week’s contest is ROMANTIC AT WORK. How have you used your
sweetheart’s profession or workplace to creatively express your love?
Winning idea gets some free Glass Chalk — great for writing love
notes on glass and mirrors.

TWO FORKS, TWO KNIVES, ONE PLATE
by Michael Webb

Have you ever watched Lady and the Tramp? If I ask you what is the
first thing that comes to mind, you probably would say the scene where
they are sharing a plate of spaghetti.

There is no doubt about it, food is romantic. It amplifies the senses
and fulfills one of our deepest needs. There are certain types of
food that are romantic by nature: chocolate, strawberries and small
pastries for example. Then there are foods that are romantic because
of the atmosphere: surrounded by candles, elegant music playing in the
background, or served on a linen covered table with a vase of fresh
flowers.

Who would have thought that a plate of spaghetti could be so romantic?
But Lady and the Tramp showed us that sharing one plate is a perfect
way to be united with one another. Have you ever eaten off the same
plate as your love? How often do you feed each other? When was the
last time you shared a strand of spaghetti or a baby corn and ended in
a kiss?

Everyone has to eat. But not everyone has to have their own plate.
