Challenge Accepted!

challenged her readers to a spring break duel - find five books that take are set in the winter. Hmmm - okay, here goes:

Outlander, by Diana Gabaldon

A Game of Thrones, by George R.R. Martin (a series)

The Winter King, by Bernard Cornwall (a series)

Into Thin Air, by Jon Krakauer

Here Be Dragons, by Sharon Kay Penman (a series)

Of course the stories are not entirely set in the winter but there’s a lot of winter in them and I love them all. I’d also like to add:

Cloudsplitter, by Russell Banks

***So Dana, if you’re reading this - here’s an answering challenge for you, and anyone else stopping by - what do you consider your five most favorite sensual foods? And unless you sincerely consider raw oysters an aphrodisiac, you can’t say raw oysters. That’s too easy. I gagged on one a few weeks ago. I didn’t find it arousing, stimulating maybe because I was trying not to choke to death in public, but the experience didn’t bring sex to mind.

My Five Most Sensual Foods:

1. Milk Chocolate for sucking.

2. Creme Brulee for sharing.

3. Hot Fudge Sundae for indulging.

4. Wild Mushroom Risotto for a group.

5. Bittersweet Chocolate Pot du Creme for closing eyes and fantasizing.

    I’ve been thinking about your question, since I read my email at work and I can only come up with one thing. For me it would be chocolate covered strawberries. Keep in mind that I’m still waiting for that man that I can be sensual with, so I don’t have much experience in this category. Your milk chocolate and sundae ideas sound really good too.

  2. Julia Barrett Says:

    Dana - I think giant strawberries with the stems on that you can dip in melted chocolate sound delightful. Yum! I guess I have a thing for sweets. On rare occasions I’ve tasted savory things that are as sensual as sweet stuff. Like that rare guy you’re waiting for! I think more guys should read romance. They’d be better at relationships.
