There are so many wonderful, inspiring, informative, and humorous books on cooking, the art of seduction, entertaining, and practically any “how-to” book you can imagine. I’ve assembled a few, many of which are in my collection. These books will help you get through your first home-cooked meal together, help you select seductive dishes for any occasion and provide tips on entertaining and how to plate your dish. There is also a selection of books on the art and magic of using spices and aphrodisiacs in your dishes. Hey, a little gastronomical alchemy never hurt anyone!
