The kitchen can be a steamy stage for romance.  Jenny Ferguson helps you set the mood for a perfect dinner.

So you and your honey have decided that eating out every night of the week is biting into your vacation budget and want to cook at home more often.  But cooking and eating dinner in your kitchen is so very ordinary.

Enrich your cooking at home experience by cooking with you sweetheart (instead of cooking for them) and bringing a little adventure to your meal.  One of the best ways to bring the ambience of eating out in is to create mix tapes for your meals.  Enjoy and bon appetit!

Cooking With a Latin American Flair

You need to get music to bring that Latin American flair from your dishes into your kitchen or dining room.  If you want to have a very traditional meal, try looking for a compilation CD of real Latin American music to enjoy.  The sound of traditional Latin American artists is one option, but if you’re more into contemporary music, you can still bring the sounds of South America into your kitchen.

The Buena Vista Social Club is a great alternative to bring a modern Latin American vibe to your meals.  While they do traditional songs such as “Guantanamera,” the Buena Vista Social Club also spices up songs from artists such as the Arctic Monkeys, Dido, the Kaiser Chiefs, Maroon 5 and more!  With the Buena Vista Social Club you can re-mix the familiar with contemporary songs that you and your honey know from the radio to create the perfect dinner at home.
