Explore a culture. Do you and your mate love Italian food? Spread a red-checked
tablecloth and pair your lasagna or linguine with soft Italian music. Then cuddle
up on the couch to watch Il Postino, Roman Holiday, or La Dolce Vita. Or,
if Kung Pao chicken and Mu Shu pork is more to your taste, practice your chopstick
skills while listening to some traditional Chinese music and end the evening with
a viewing of The King and I or The Last Emperor. Depending on how
far you want to take it, you can learn more about other cultures as well as rekindle
your romance.
