They say that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. I believe there could be some truth in that. Do you know what your husband's favorite meal his? His favorite dessert or specialty drink? If so, one of the best ways to show him love is by making it for him, for no reason at all. Surprise him with one of his favorites every now and then and surly you will speak to his heart through his stomach.
I've heard my husband note that Mochas (Mokas) are his favorite dessert. He'd share stories with me about when his mom would make them. He told me of a time he and his uncle finished off an entire fresh-made batch while his mom was running errands. To him, Mochas aren't his favorite dessert merely because of how they taste. Mochas bring back fond memories of his childhood and times with his mom. I tried a couple of times to get the recipe from her, but she was unable to find it. This year, I decided I wasn't giving up until I found a recipe for Mochas. Through lot's of research and help from a family member, I obtained a recipe. It was in French and I had to translate it, but at least I had a starting point.
Making Mochas is quite the process and took some trial and error. Since I wanted the mochas to be a total surprise, I couldn't ask my husband for help. Thankfully, my son volunteered his services. We worked through the process, made two different types of mochas, and overall I feel they were a success.
My husband was pleasantly surprised and couldn't believe I'd gone through so much effort to make the Mochas for him. They weren't exactly like his mom's but they were delicious! The next time, we will make them together and hopefully get a little closer to the original. It made my heart happy to make my husband something that was so meaningful to him.
Show your husband love by learning his favorite foods and making them for him every once in a while. He'll appreciate it!!
