I also like the stir-fry. And I say: make it colorful. Get a red, a green, AND a yellow bell pepper, for instance. Presentation.
You could grill marinated pork chops, stir fry some veggies and throw the pork in (cut in strips) and serve over vermicelli.

I used to make lasagna a lot. Not so much any more. I think all the free time I had when I was single had something to do with it.
Anyway. It's still the best lasagna I've ever had. I made it for my wife when we were first dating. We've been married almost 15 years. Lasagna, garlic bread, and salad. The secret to the lasagna is to use hot Italian sausage for the meat instead of hamburger or a mild sausage. She will be yours after that, and you'll have leftovers for a week. |

 Really it is pretty easy though. On the foreman, I usually let them sit on one side for 7-10 minutes, make the flip, let them go for another 5 and then make a center cut to check the color. I like them juicy on the outside but cooked all the way through. Yes, I'm anal retentive about making sure the grill lines go the same direction.

No word from Freshness, I wonder if he's imploding under all the advice. We still are missing some crucial info here to make our suggestions more poignant, if that's the word. To the point, there's a word for that, I just can't find it now.
Anyway, to the point: We need to know has she been to your place before? Is this a getting to know you date or is it really just an excuse for her to be at your place too drunk or tired or late to go home why don't I just stay here on your couch no you take my bed I'll sleep on the couch you don't need to sleep on the couch? In any case you should make your house presentable, follow Reg.'s suggestion if she hasn't already been over there before, otherwise just make it clean, i.e. no dust bunnies, half eaten tuna sandwiches, etc. It shows respect for a person if you've cleaned up and hopefully showered, shaved, and brushed your teeth. If you expect to get busy later in the evening, maybe you want to have just light fare, vegetable sticks, a nice dip, a few kinds of good cheese, crackers, and some chicken satay with peanut sauce. The key thing as reg.joe points out is that it's about "her" and not about the chow. That means you'll have to spend a lot of time listening to her talk about her and make eye contact. A reminder, her eyes are located several inches above her boobs. Good luck and have fun.

reading all of your recipes I note that you are all married men and not fledgling college students. Think back and remember the fledgling days. I think he's trying to do a little better than chips and dip and beer nuts. But just a little.

Do whatever you want, dude, but ... no garlic or onions, and you probably want to avoid broccoli.
