Virgo Virgo

In my experience the eating habits of my Virgos are markedly different to those of our Leo friends.

They both want to look good at all costs. However, your typical Virgo eats practically and mostly for reasons of good health and well-being. Valuing cleanliness above everything else, being neat, tidy, and with a huge fear of filth and messiness, your Virgo generally doesn't actually cook. But if they do, it’s all a rather short order and short shrift affair. Shortcuts are definitely to order...

So if Virgos can't avoid cooking, recipes are followed to a tee. Needing minimal preparation, their catering is more victual arrangement than food preparation. Organisation though, is key, and swiftly cleaning up as they go locks down the deal.

If there is an aberrant interest in food, Virgos almost Biblically like to 'know' each intimate ingredient and analyse every process to its molecular conclusion. Usually, they will be atomically up to date by reading the latest reviews on what's fashionable and what's to be avoided. Virgos always know the latest goss in the food scene, and they take as much pleasure in checking out the restaurant's crockery and cutlery as  they do in what's actually on their plate. Being great listeners who never miss a detail, you can always rely on Virgos to freely share and defend their considerably considered opinions. 

  

The approach of Spring is always an invitation to eat lighter, fresher and healthier foods. Nevertheless, there can always be some moderate consumption of chocolate at any time of year so we can all avoid any possible hint of magnesium deficiency.

  • Scorpio Dinner Party at Bloodwood

    Ah, Scorpio. Dear Scorpios are keenly observant, extremely independent, intense individuals, who are known to be loyal, passionate and persistent, dynamic and resourceful.  They exhibit a calm exterior, and are usually in a position of power, with lots going on below the surface.

    My wonderful, generous, loyal Scorpio friends love intense (even bitter) extreme flavours and spicy foods. Their go-to comfort foods are beef cheeks and lamb shanks, more winter weather foods, so for our Bloodwood Scorpio Dinner Party we lightened things up a bit to suit this really warm spring weather we are already having.

    Our zesty Scorpio menu melds fish, mushrooms, venison, citrusy cheeses, light vegetables and bright juicy fruits with plenty of succulent flavours to create a delightfully fresh dinner, perfect for a warm Scorpio spring evening.

    À votre santé.

    Pauvre Paris.

  • Libran Dinner Party at Bloodwood

    The symbol for Libra is the scales. Friends of that ilk are skilful and diplomatic, and given scales are all about balance, peace and harmony is essential to their well being.

    Librans do, however, have difficulty with decision-making, as they can’t help but see both sides of the argument, and often identify and empathise with both.

     

  • Virgo Tea and Coffee

    Serve tea and coffee with fine dark chocolate, Virgo's favourite.

    Just one piece of chocolate each (or pretend to forget to serve them altogether ~ your guests will be the better for it in the long run; it's a good thing Virgo's know what's best for themselves, and for everyone else as well).

    Also by now the table and kitchen should be perfectly spotless and sterile, for your guests' enjoyment and relaxation, not because you want them to leave yet!
