  3. Need a hostess gift when invited to dinner? The Times' S. Irene Virbila has a few ideas

    When I spent some months in Venice, Italy, years ago, my friend Paolo would show up at dinner parties with prosciutto. I'm not talking about a paper packet of sliced ham but a whole prosciutto di San Daniele, the famous ham from Friuli, cured with the foot on. The host would hand him a glass of Prosecco, he'd pull his well-traveled prosciutto out of the bag and proceed to carve off slices as his contribution to the <em>cicchetti</em> (antipasti) spread. Brilliant. And after, it would go home with him to be trotted out for the next dinner party.

  5. Sweet Euphoria

    The Aztecs called it the food of the gods. But for modern-day romantics, chocolate is the food of love: a rich, sensual treat no Valentine&rsquo;s Day is complete without. But what some couples may not know is that eating chocolate releases phenylethylamine, a chemical nicknamed the &ldquo;love drug,&rdquo; to the brain. It&rsquo;s the same chemical that stimulates the euphoric sensation you feel when you express love for each other.
