What: Dinner
Warnings: Probably none.
Ed wasn't what you would call an expert cook. He was proficient at everyday meals and had a few special meals that he did very well. He enjoyed cooking, but not enough to work hard at it. For dinner with Ella he decided to keep it simple--roast chicken cooked with root vegetables. A spinach salad. And two different options for dessert, depending on how well he was sticking to his promise to be on his best behavior.
He didn't dress up for dinner this time. He kept his clothes simple, like the meal, faded jeans and a soft cotton dress shirt. He was barefoot, the way he almost always was when at home. A few candles littered the sleek dark coffee table, where a bottle of white wine was chilling in the wine bucket next to two wine glasses. The table was set with simple, but expensive, white china and polished silver that stood out against the dark wood. There were flowers on the table--white lillies.
The only thing missing from the otherwise well planned setting was music. The apartment was silent except for the sounds of Ed finishing up preparations in the kitchen.
