Fork me, Spoon me… Now!

Amy Reiley seems to be a cool mix of an ADD and an over-achiever. Anyway that’s my impression after I got a little dizzy reading her bio. I also had to spend quite some time understanding which, where and what about her various blogs. But all in, she most definitely has all the ingredient required: a contagious passion, definitive knowledge in her field, all this sprinkled with a good dose of sexiness!

Her book Fork me, Spoon me, is the Sexy version of Julia Child’s cookbook with POTENT aphrodisiac ingredients. It might not be as extensive but I don’t remember finding the Ginger Mojito recipe in Julia’s! So in preparation of the V-Day… whether is is an affaire a deux, a menage a trois or if you decided to invite all your single friends and dish out on ex-lovers… get an apron and heat up the kitchen!

And by the way, the Lady knows also a thing or two about wine: she was nominated as one the  five best female wine professionals in the world of the year by France’s Wine Women awards. And she is the creator of the award-winning Amy Reiley’s Pocket Vineyard and the companion Amy Reiley’s Pocket Gourmet.

So here for more on Ms Reiley: she is the second American to earn a Master of Gastronomy from the French temple of cuisine, Le Cordon Bleu. During her research at Cordon Bleu Amy grew to notoriety as an authority on aphrodisiac foods.

Through her company, Life of Reiley, Amy has found many avenues to promote her aphrodisiac knowledge and unique take on life’s “consuming passions.” The Eat Something Sexy website, www.eatsomethingsexy.com and Amy’s monthly e-newsletter, Amy Reiley’s Aphrodisiac of the Month are considered the online authorities on aphrodisiac food history and science.

But Amy’s culinary knowledge is not limited to aphrodisiac foods. In June 2005, Amy was singled out as one of the five best female wine professionals in the world of the year by France’s Wine Women awards.And she is the creator of the award-winning Amy Reiley’s Pocket Vineyard and the companion Amy Reiley’s Pocket Gourmet, the first comprehensive PDA programs on food and wine.
