Sex and Food - A Recipe for Love & Life

 
My initial idea for this article was to come up with some recipes that included some of the well-known aphrodisiacs such as oysters.  But the more I thought about it the more I realized that beyond the commonplace theory that things such as oysters enhance your sexual drive there are many more reasons to incorporate food into your everyday sexual encounters.  I have two favorite things in this life and they are great sex and great food!  There is something about food that not only nourishes our bodies but also in some cases creates such pleasure and enjoyment in the way it smells, feels and tastes that it becomes almost sexual all by itself.  Can you tell I really love to eat!  Aside from that, so often our everyday activities and lives get in the way of connecting with our partner(s) on a truly spiritual level thru sex. We are always in a hurry to get things done before we run out of time and sometimes we neglect our sensual side and that of our partners in order to just get the job done, so to speak.  I have found that when you use certain foods as part of your sex ritual it can truly enhance the pleasure and eroticism of the act.  I’m not suggesting that every sexual encounter needs to have food involved but once in a while, if you prepare a little and take the extra time involved, it can truly become an experience you won’t easily forget.  You might be asking at this point what type of foods I’m talking about.  That is up to your individual likes and dislikes but I find anything that can be rubbed or stroked on, such as flavored oils, syrups or cremes very exciting and pleasurable. You may even want to use honey for this purpose (not only is it good for you but very sweet and lickable).  All of those areas of the body that don’t normally get any attention suddenly come alive!  For those of you that don’t want to get quite that messy, you may want to adorn strategic parts of your partner’s body with things like whipped cream and cherries or strawberries, make sort of a human sundae and indulge in the lusciousness.  Not only is this a satisfying treat for you but I guarantee it will be very satisfying for your partner too!  Imagination is the key and there are no limits to the variety of foods that can be used.  The more time that is taken in experimenting and enjoying the more it will enhance the final outcome of your experience.  If your so inclined, a long hot shower together afterwards can be very enjoyable too!  I think we all need to connect with our partners in levels that a lot of times get overlooked in everyday living and that is the real message I’m am trying to convey.  So open up that refrigerator, see what’s in there and go for it!  You’ll be glad you did!
