Due to aromas I think a warm, pumpkin soup with cinnamon sour cream would be the first step, creating warmth and comfort, which we can build from

Then for appeteazers oysters are great with a little bit of lemon, littleneck clams, or artichokes.

Fresh fish seared with chilis and some grilled veggies would be nice

And for dessert some tempting juicy fruits, like blackberries, orange segments, strawberries..

Mmmm sounds yummy- you know I'll be back with more ideas later. I would love to hear more- and your Aphrodite, after hearing about your pierogies, I know you've got some tricks up your sleeve

Wine can put me in an amorous mood, although red wine, because of the color, has a certain sexier appeal.

A lovely Virgo with Cancer Moon/Gemini Ascendant/Mars and Venus in Libra used to make steamed milk with amaretto for me and we'd drink it on very cold nights outside on his terrace. Honey is a good substitute for amaretto for those people who do not like liquor. The smell is amazing.

Seafood has always been a favorite of mine when it comes to the romance arena. Sushi is perfect!

Pancakes as breakfast in bed are always nice too...

And i love fruit altogether. So fruit or exotic desserts are definitely good.

A Scorpio I once dated (with a Scorpio moon, Venus in Sag, Mars in Virgo) would actually wake up before me and brew coffee and make breakfast for me. We dated during the winter, so after my shower, we'd sit in his living room with the smell of the wood stove...that was nice. I guess it wasn't the food so much as the ambiance...

Oh, and, in honor of an Aries (moon in Sag/Venus in Taurus/Mars in Libra) I once knew, let's not forget whipped cream....

My Moon is in Leo in the 3rd House, 4 degrees away from Jupiter and Square Chiron. Otherwise, it's unaspected.

My Venus is in grumpy ol' Cappy in the 7th House with no aspect to it (right, Aphrodite :-) ?) Well, it does Trine Chiron.

My Mars is 16 degrees Aquarius in the 9th House, Trine Pluto, Trine my Ascendant and Conjunct the MC.

I love fish tacos with sour cream & salsa mixed to put on top and a drizzle of lime

Mmmm how about lobster with lemon? OK maybe I am thinking about a love affair with food, not someone else

Soon I will be more inspired in that area of life
