It's not so much about the food as the romance, finger foods you can feed each other. You want to keep i light and preferably cold foods (in case lunch is interrupted or it can be tasted throughout).
Shrimp cocktail with avocado
Sushi
Fresh fruits with chocolate either for dipping or precovered
Tomatoes with baby mozzarella and basil
stuffed artichoke hearts or stuffed mushrooms
shrimp bruschetta
Bite sized bagel with cream cheese and smoked salmon, or smoked salmon w/ creme fraiche and caviar
cantalope or honey dew wrapped in prosciuto
asparagus with light olive oil



Turkey Muffaletta

Ingredients
2/3 cup pitted green olives
1/4 cup pitted black olives
7 ounces canned artichoke hearts [not bottled/marinated]
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 crushed garlic clove
1 1/2 teaspoons oregano
pinch coarse salt
coarsely ground black pepper to taste
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil

4 white sandwich rolls

8 ounces white turkey meat, sliced

8 ounces Jarlsburg cheese, sliced

Method
Coarsely chop the olives. Quarter the artichoke hearts. Put olives and artichokes in a bowl. Mix vinegar, garlic, basil, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Whisk in the oil.

Pour the marinade over the vegetables and leave covered at room temperature for 1/2 hour. Split the rolls. Put the sliced turkey and cheese on bottom half. Top with olive salad and cover with top half of roll. Wrap tightly in foil, pressing down on the sandwiches.

Refrigerate 4 hours, or overnight. Pack in a cold cooler.



Cucumber sandwiches (cut into heart shapes), chocolate dipped strawberries, a bottle of Champagne. For the little one, maybe a baby sitter...



Champagne, strawberries, oysters on the half shell, caviar, foie gras.
