The Courtesan Cooks

The Spider is a good position to whip out when you have been feeling like you have not been able to spend quality time in the bedroom, due to the fact that it allows for the two of you to slow down your pace and truly communicate non-verbally.

This is how you get down to business:

Sit back while supporting yourself with your hands or elbows, then let your boo come toward you as they sitting back in a similar way. Take the time to really feel each other and let it go nice, easy, and slow. Make sure to keep the eye contact going. This makes for a fabulous tantric position.  Women tend to feel a more intense stimulation in this position.

High five to that!

This recipe using the tomato aka "love apple", sounds to seductive and delicious that it is so in the running for winning the best recipe for the contest.  This was sent in by Malikah Kelly who says that this recipe will totally get you in the mood.

Stuffed Tomatoes with Pink Chili Crab Salad

Ingredients

4-6 ripe tomatoes on the vine

1 pint of lump or jumbo lump crab meat

1 medium shallot or small red onion, very finely minced

¼ cup of low-fat mayonnaise

2 tablespoons of low-fat sour cream

1 tablespoon of chili paste (sambal or Thai chili for an Asian twist, or chipotle for a Mexican vibe)

The juice of half a lime

Herbs (cilantro, chives, or basil) for garnish

Salt and pepper to taste

Separate the tomatoes and cut the top off the tomato, leaving the green vine attached. Scoop out the seeds and inside of the tomato until you have a nice, hollow inside. 

Pick through the crab meat, making sure its clean and there are no bits of shell. In a mixing bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, sour cream, chili paste, lime juice and shallot. Gently fold in the clean crab meat until it is coated with the dressing, being careful not to break up the lumps. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Fill the hallowed tomatoes with the crab mixture, sprinkle with finely chopped herbs, and place the top of the tomato back on, angled to the side to reveal the sexy crab filling. 

Notes

·       If you’re not a fan of spicy food, omit the chili paste and use 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard.

·       I use low-fat sour cream and mayo for diet purposes, but full fat will be fine as well

·       If you are a recessionista like me, save the tomato insides (except for the seeds) and puree them with a bit of red wine vinegar and olive oil for a lovely tomato vinaigrette salad dressing!
