That special someone is coming over for your first hot date. You want to impress them BUT, you only have an hour. Luckily you have all of your ingredients at your disposal. What would you make?

Kinda depends on the season for me. In the warmer months I like grilling so maybe some chicken sandwiches, or brats. In the colder months something like chicken and dumplings stew. I don't like fussing around - I don't cook to impress, I have other things to worry about on a first date 😄

I'd turn on the hot chocolate fountain meanwhile I get the other food ready.

Sure, it'll cost about around $ 55 but it's very useful once you get it; and memorable to guests aesthetics-wise.

Then, we get delicious food out of every tier.

I'm talking fruit (to dip in the chocolate), steak, pasta, etc.

I have sweet tea ready.

And....personally, I really love pure carrot juice. My companion doesn't have to drink it but he can try it if he wants.

As each food is being finished, it'll be placed on different large plates on the table.

Then, I'd throw board games, and video games on another table.

The big screen TV can be in front of both the food and game tables. (BECAUSE WE FEAST TONIGHT)

BUT...if I am not finished with the food,

Me and my bae could have fun finishing it while I feed him.♥

But um....if it's just a cute date then something simple like pasta..

But if it's a sexy one as well,

then I'll get the whip cream. x

I would make my bacon wrapped cream cheese stuffed jalapeños. I’m not a big cook so it’s one of the only dishes that impress but is easy af to make.
