How handy are you in the kitchen?

Cream of corn soup is easy although I probably wouldn't serve fish and steak at the same meal. Maybe a fish appetizer. Seared ahi tuna with a light salad as a starter is easy, delicious and impressive if you do it right. You just have to be willing to spend the money to get quality fish. Make sure you don't overcook it. A light sear on each side and leave it rare in the middle.

A grilled or pan seared rib-eye steak is a good idea. Again, quality ingredients is key. Let me know what you decide for a steak and I'll give you tips from there. Go with something with some fat content. It's harder to make leaner steaks flavorful without a ton of work.

Dessert? Chicks can't be without dessert and unfortunately, it's probably the hardest course to make. There are a lot of great quick recipes for dessert. What's she into? Chocolate? Caramel? Fruit?

That's four courses.
