- | CommentsThose who say it's the company that makes a meal sexy and not the food have obviously never had a bad oyster. The Shine Supper Club believes that the right meal can go a long way to help sealing the seduction deal, and at the very least, it's sexy to see someone tie on an apron and spend time creating a meal just for you. Even more so when the meal knocks your socks (and, uh, other clothes) off.

And yet...At this point in winter's deep freeze, most of us feel anything but hot. The dry skin on my hand's looks like it belongs to a Golden Girl. My lips are too flaky for red lipstick, and even the most ambitious sidewalk cat-caller has little to respond to: my shape is buried under a couple layers of wool. All of which leads me to believe that whoever decided to "brighten up" February with Valentine's Day was a freak.
Leaning over a bowl of dumpling soup lends a milkmaid flush to our cheeks (and inspires a new term of endearment). Lusty, falling-apart short ribs warm us from the inside, and a dark chocolate mousse is richly decadent but still airy. These are our sexy foods: our go-to recipes for seduction that can raise temperatures in even the darkest and dreariest winter month. This month, The Shine Supper Club asks you to share your tried-and-true sexiest dish. Here's how to join us:

Originally from Sweden (but now calling Colorado home), Camilla shared her recipe for glogg in our December recipe round-up, but it was her Avocado Cream Pasta with Grilled Shrimp (recipe below) that made her this month's winner.
Camilla is the newest Shine Supper Club winner!
What ingredient are you currently obsessed with?
It's not so much about a specific ingredient, it's more about my obsession with certain cooking appliances. For example, a couple of weeks ago I purchased a cast iron grill pan, which has become a permanent staple in my kitchen. I grill everything: avocado, shrimp, vegetables, chicken, peaches. A few months ago I bought an enameled dutch oven and was cooking roasts and stews 24/7. Now I'm kind of itching for a panini press.
Favorite food memory?
Growing up we did not go out to restaurants often. However, every once in a while my parents would take me and my siblings on a European road trip. These trips were so fun and some of my fondest ...Read More » - Tue, Jan 22, 2013 12:00 PM EST | CommentsCan you please pass the kale and millet, because even the most die hard bon vivants among us has probably overdone it on the cheese and chocolate at this point. We're ready to eat greens, we want to put turmeric and ginger in everything, and we'd like to fit in our pants again. The Shine Supper Club to the rescue, with recipes to hasten a return to sane eating. Bring it on.
