Date Night In by Ashley Rodriguez

Sweethearts, spouses, and parents Ashley and Gabe Rodriguez found themselves deep into marriage and child-rearing when they realized they were missing the connection of their early relationship, and needed to prioritize each other. They instituted a weekly date night at home to sauté, roast, mix, dice, and spend time reconnecting over delicious meals like:

  • Crostini with Ricotta, Prosciutto, and Peas
  • Tomato and Fennel Gazpacho with Dungeness Crab
  • Fennel-Crusted Lamb Chops
  • Dulce de Leche and Nectarine Creamsicles

Simply carving out time to talk, cook, and eat together can be the relationship-booster you need to keep the spark alive. Just don’t forget the cocktail (try a Rhubarb Sour or a Grapefruit 75). Make date night an integral part of your week and woo your partner all over again with food, drink, and sparkling conversation.
