Dream Valentine's Dates: Food Network version

bobby flay is hotter than hotAgnostic of your preference for men or women, the hot chefs on the Food Network, well, they know they're hot. They're entirely crush-worthy and would make ideal fantasy Valentine's dates - they're personable, they have great taste in wine, and best of all, they can cook. If marital status weren't an issue, my top Valentine's Day picks would be:

  • Bobby Flay: I've had a crush on Bobby ever since I first wished I was his giggly sidekick on Hot Off the Grill.

On my dream date, he'd grill shrimp and portabello mushrooms with some sort of green garlic sauce and we'd wash it all down with a gigantic pitcher of sangria.
  • Giada de Laurentiis: She's so obvious it almost feels wrong picking her. Giada just drips sex appeal from the camera angles to the cleavage. Boys, she is one hot cookin' mama.

Food Porn: Ginger Coconut Truffles


When I saw these angelic little truffles staring at me during the last day of the Portland Farmer's Market, I knew I'd love them. So first I tasted a bite of the coffee truffle from Hot Chefs, to work up to it. Good. But not explosive. I waited for a customer to finish her purchase and grabbed a chunk. It melted on my tongue so slowly, releasing a powerfully spicy flavor of fresh gingerroot, nutty coconut. I'm savoring it in my memory still and it's been almost a week. It's the ultimate holiday treat.
