She was going for 'romantic' not 'cheesy', honestly, she was. But, when he said that, she couldn't help but pinch his butt playfully and grin. "It sure is."
She wrapped her arms around him and hugged him to her for a moment before she reached out a hand to start uncovering dishes. None of the foods she'd made were Japanese; she hadn't been working on the recipes long enough to try them reliably. She stuck with Italian dishes this time.
Next year, she might be good enough in the kitchen to produce some of the local stuff.
In the meantime, they'd have to make do with the steak recipe Maria had taught her, some steamed vegetables, and a light pasta salad. All simple enough that she felt confident making them without Maria standing over her with a rolling pin.
For fun, she'd cut the steaks into bite sized pieces and neglected to include forks. She snagged a piece with her fingers and offered it to him with a slightly nervous smile.
