>>57791842Food is a love language for both of us, so I would love to cook various meals and surprise him with snacks throughout the day. As the other anon said, it's not like he's used to having someone cook for him so I think he would feel the love with every meal.
I think he's an early riser, so I'd love to wake up before him and surprise him with a big hearty breakfast to start the day off. A loaded breakfast sandwich with eggs, cheese, and bacon or sausage on toast with some skillet potatoes cooked in the bacon grease with bell peppers and onions and coffee on the side. He's pretty active so I think loading up on protein in the morning would help keep him full. Still sneaking in a sandwich somewhere, but not the usual sandwich like during picnics!
I'd pack his lunch with something lighter, maybe a salad with lots of fresh herbs and some dried fruit for some sweetness. Some chicken to make it filling! Throw in a couple pieces of candy or a cookie as a sweet treat.
For dinner, I'd love to spend the time to make a stew or soup that has to simmer all day, something that takes a lot of time to show how much effort I want to put in for him. Something where he can taste the love and attention in every bite. Plus you usually make those in big batches so we can enjoy the leftovers for a while. Maybe something with a nice tomato sauce that has to cook or something like pho where the broth just takes a while.
For little snacks, I would love to surprise him with a plate of sliced fruit. He apparently likes sweets from the lodge topics in Pomas but he also likes healthy foods, so I think fruit is a good balance. Plus peeled and cut fruit always tastes like love to me! We can share some ice cream or maybe sherbet every once in a while as a little treat.
I just want to spoil him in the way that he deserves and make him feel so loved <3
