Welcome back!
Several months ago Jay and I were lamenting that we can’t find another couple that is like us. Young, relatively smart and funny, into kinky sex, and in some kind of open relationship. Sure, I have a lot of friends that are in great relationships. They are probably even having excellent sex. They sure don’t talk about it as much as I do but I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt. Unfortunately, they’re only having that sex with their partners.
Monogamy is an excellent decision for some people but it isn’t one that we’ve chosen. However, finding like-minded playmates and friends has proven challenging. We primarily come across middle-aged couples that are into the swinging scene. I’ve tried to get to know them and work things out but I always come away from my exchanges thinking that it would just feel awkward. I have this image of J and I showing up at a bar to meet people the age of our parents and, well, feeling like kids. That isn’t to say that I don’t have fantasies about sex with older men but at my age, someone in their late 30s is considered “older”. The couple dynamic seems to amplify the age difference for me as well. We’ve desperately wanted to meet some other people like us that we can be friends with and perhaps fool around with on occasion.
Well, we think we’ve found them.
The other day, Jay met a girl online. The girl had a boyfriend. They thought of themselves as polyamorous and desperately wanted to meet another couple their age. Is this set-up sounding familiar yet? Sylvia and Jacob seemed to be shockingly like us and Sylvia and Jay were already hitting it off. We made arrangements to get drinks together a few nights ago.
We met at one of my favorite bars, the one with the excellent jukebox. We managed to snag the comfy back room that is a converted bank vault. Before long we were all musing aloud on whether or not we could get away with closing the vault door and make use of the comfy couches. Unfortunately, I had papers to write back at home – nothing happened. But what joy at finding people like us. We could talk about kinky sex without scandalized looks or embarassment. We all had things in common music, hobbies, Jacob and I even lived in the same dorm a few years ago.
The next day a flurry of instant messages confirmed what we all had already figured out – there was a big old four way crush in the works.
So, tomorrow night Sylvia and Jacob are coming over for dinner and a wholesome game of Spin the Bottle.
What should I cook?
Seriously, I’m stumped. I need a menu for a sexy dinner party and I need it fast. Don’t let me down, dear readers.


If you've wondered what it would be like to get me on the phone, no need to wonder anymore!

Red wine. Not too much though. I’d go for a big bold red wine like a Cabernet or Zinfandel. White wine isn’t really sexy… but you could always do champagne.
After dinner, either some REALLY dark french roast coffee, or espresso shots. Perhaps some nice port or sherry, if you like them.
Some of my favorite dinner party recipes:
Alton Brown’s Oysters
Bananas Foster
If you search the foodnetwork.com website for “Dinner Party” and click on Topics instead of Recipes, there are lots of ideas there as well.

I certainly can’t beat that suggestion… Alton Brown’s recipes are wonderful.

This might sound obvious, but: no garlic or onions if you can help it. Somebody keeps bringing garlic hummus to sex parties around here. I don’t even think it’s the same person every time. I love garlic and I still wish they would stop.

Salmon or chicken? Maybe in a foil packet with fresh vegetables? Cooks fast, not too heavy, smells heavenly when first opened. I love Epicurious for recipes.
White wine or rose.
