***
A lover who taught her many things before he left. Pasta, garlic and olive oil in the night. Provolone and Parmesan. Crusty bread and Cabernet Sauvignon. Candlelight and classical music. Laughter. Appetites whetted by lovemaking. Garlic and sex linked forever in her mind.

  11. Very sexy indeed! Aren't Italians the best?!! Your post did make it to my blog-sometimes it just takes a while for me to get around to reading and posting them under the comments. Mea culpa!
