So hungover this morning I accidently wore two different shoes (1 Viewer)

Also, for the future - when you have an inexpensive bottle of wine and don't want to bother with a decanter - get an aerator.  They're cheap, easy to use, and do as much for a $12 bottle of wine as decanting it will.

 
During the heat of summer you might also go with a blood orange and red onion salad. 
Very easy.  Seems different, but very easy.  Some recipes for it encourage blue cheese , the cheese not the salad dressing.  You might try that or Feta cheese instead.  Go light on the cheese regardless. Can be made up a few hours ahead of time, covered in saran wrap, and refrigerated.

You do not want to be juggling several dishes at the same time. Not while entertaining a date.  Making the salad and dessert well ahead of time is smart. You have a cleaner kitchen, presuming you cleaned up after, and all of your attention is on a main dish you have mastered, and of course on her.

 
If you are going to go for the Bananas Foster or  Cherries Jubilee have all of the prep work done.  Ingredients premeasured and in any containers, even Dixie cups it that's all you have.  Have the cups lined up in order of putting ingredients in the pan and you can even successfully make the dessert with your pants around your ankles, if you get that lucky.

I'll be decanting it in a glass juice pitcher. I have a sense of humor about it for sure.

The point is not that you eat it, the point is that you made it for her.  It makes the dinner more of an event, a memorable event, and that is what you go for. You want to communicate that she is worth the effort.  Ideally if you have any dessert at all it is off of each other's person.  Nothing like a dessert interrupting passion shtoink in the kitchen, against the fridge, up on the sink with the spray nozzle, near the drawer which holds the rolling pin and melon baller, not to mention the ice cream scoop.

Watermelon (you heard me haters) arugula salad with feta is pretty solid too.  An easy vinaigrette made with OJ and white wine vinegar is easy to make and delicious.

DW providing pure gold in his last few posts. but their being ignored bc he's been labeled a hater by rNr. his loss.

 
DW I'm not crapping on your suggestions. I'm going to keep them in mind for the future. I just don't have the time. I've got to cook and clean and deodorize this place before a woman can set foot in it.

I did not think you were. 

Also, I understand that free advice is often not worth the charge, so even if you were I would take no offense.

Food Truck Rodeo at my building tomorrow.  Some Mac and cheese truck coming.  Do I go to them, or Panera for my cheese bowl.  Your call.

BTW, I have not had Mac and cheese in 40 years.

He's alright, just in need of a bit of seasoning is all.  Sometimes a bit testy with me when I rank on him as guys will, but I never have malice in my heart when I do, and under the tutelage of Bone In he is learning that to be so.  Also, what is a fella to do, treat him differently, like a hot house flower. No, I do him the honor and give him the respect of treating him like a man and then I leave it to Evilgrin to explain that.  He is coming around to understanding that I want to laugh with him, not at him and he does not have to be defensive.  As for my advice, when I give it it is usually sincere and well intentioned.

Right now it is more important that he concentrate on the task at hand than on me.  I believe the Code says take no offense when another guy is "working".  The man punched in a while ago.  He is on the job.

I bet if you try hard, you can probably fill in for the typo.  Thanks for highlighting my flaws.  I will be forever grateful.

Sorry if it came across that way. I didn't get it and still don't, but wanted to. No biggie.

ETA: Doh. "many". Ok.
