Again with the Associated Press thing. I've missed this blog for the past few months and finally decided there's no time like the present to return to it. Especially for a blog dedicated to the best of home-cooked food and sex, because today is all about both.
My husband is coming home after over a month away. He travels for work a lot, and whenever he comes home he gets whatever he wants to eat. This time he asked for a steak, and I'm really proud of the menu I've assembled. London broil has been marinating for five days in a mix of balsamic vinegar and A-1 with toasted sesame oil and various spices; tonight I'll spread it with a paste I made last night out of freshly roasted garlic and olive oil before I broil it to medium-rare. I'm also mashing sweet potatoes with hazelnut milk and toasted sesame oil, and a baby spinach salad with toasted hazelnuts and dried cranberries. Glass of shiraz will round it out - at least for me, he may want Jameson's on the rocks with his, whatever he wants.
For dessert I whipped up a maple pumpkin pie with a from-scratch whole wheat butter crust. The top cracked; I think I cooked it about five minutes longer than I should have, but it should still taste good. I also made maple whipped cream to go on top, and I have a lovely chilled 1997 port to enjoy with dessert. I think for dessert we should make a fire in the fireplace and kick back in our jammies. I have a new long satin black nightgown with a matching robe and it makes me feel like Rita Hayworth.
I think after dessert we'll break out a Lush massage bar and see where that goes.
Before dinner though, there's a bit of catching up to do. I sense BDSM in my immediate future. He's taking a very Dominant role of late, which I love since I tend toward the very submissive in my relationships with him. I used to be a professional Dominatrix myself but I feel so much more content in the submissive role with my husband. And I can tell I'm definitely in for some punishment. Hopefully the promise of dinner will keep it from being too bad.
