Dating

Food and love have gone hand in hand for several millennia, and though the dating scene has changed unbelievably and completely, I have realized that mixing food and dating is a wonderful way to enhance both–or sometimes great food simply distracts from a terrible date.

So with that in mind, here we examine how best to enjoy this crazy journey through love and life: by keeping your humor and exciting your taste buds.

“Date Night In” Review

July 15, 2016 By The Hungry Dater Leave a Comment

I often marvel at how timely life can be. I lead a very busy life, and blogging–at least at this point–is a hobby for me. I love connecting with people through food and dating so I love to write about it. I try and stay on a schedule, but as you all know, I don’t always succeed.

So, while I like to try and keep up on several blogs, I’m sad to say that only a handful ever get my full attention. One of those is Not Without Salt. I usually read within a day or two of receiving it. Ashley’s words have always touched me, and her book was no different. In fact, her book “Date Night In,” was one that inspired me to begin writing a blog of my own.

Bar Review – Sushi Pier 2

February 12, 2015 By The Hungry Dater Leave a Comment

For those of you who don’t know, I am a lawyer by day. When we were in law school, every Thursday night was “Bar Review.” Now, as a very new first year, this was a terrifying concept. The Bar Exam is probably the most miserable, difficult test I have ever faced in my entire life. So when I saw that there was a Bar Review every Thursday during school, you could understand why I thought “We seriously have to start studying for this monster now???” Well, as you might have guessed, Thursday night Bar Review was a play on words and was not, in fact, extra study time. It was a “Review” of a different bar in the city every week. Basically a time where all of us got together to blow off steam and meet and mingle. Often, these were nights where we simply drank too much, but in spite of that, I met some of my best friends from law school at Thursday Bar Review.

In that spirit, and because dating and eating is usually done out (at least at first), I’ve decided that I’m going to restart the tradition with an actual Thursday review of a different bar or restaurant every week.

I read an article recently that said sushi is the second or third date thing. I suppose that’s because fish can be touchy–not everyone likes it–and because it can sometimes be messy. But if you ask me, sushi is something to eat any time. I have liked sushi for my whole life, and when you live in Reno, Nevada, you’re lucky enough to have access to really good All-You-Can-Eat Sushi….

Naturally Gluten Free 3 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies Because First Dates are Hard

This week has made me realize that, for a girl who writes about dating, I’m apparently not very good at it. I have been officially single for almost ten years. In that time, I have racked up my fair share of dates. First dates mostly, a few second dates, and a small handful of “somethings” that last little longer than a few weeks.

But I’ve learned something valuable about myself this week: Perhaps the reason I’ve been single this long is not because I’m picky… Perhaps I’m just bad at dating. 😉

Now, do I really think I’m bad at it? Probably not. This week has just created a perfect storm of stress, irritation and frustration which has subsequently turned into some weird sort of low self-esteem and discomfort….
