Way back in May 2006, I was feeling all silly, as one does, and began pondering the phrase “you can’t judge a book by it’s cover”. I decided, that indeed you can. If it has Fabio on the cover, it’s a cheesy romance novel. In the vein of blue cheesy romance novels (< —–bad Cheese pun), and taking the absence of the other Patrick into account, I have concocted another smooth collection of cheesy romance quotes…..
He stared lovingly into her eyes, briefly noting their milky whiteness, like two freakishly even sized holes in a block of Swiss cheese.
Such was the depth of their love, that it felt like the normal rules of life didn’t apply to them. The spring in their step, the shine in their eyes, all indicated that they felt exempted from the rules. Much like a piece of cheese is exempt from the ten second rule.
They had been inseparable for weeks now. They held each other tightly, never letting each other out of site. It was as if they had bonded at the molecular level, like cheese melted onto toast under the grill.
Their love for each other grew by the day, until it had become all encompassing, like mold on a month old lump of neglected cheese.
After the birth of their beautiful child, the living embodiment of their love, he recalled her pain during child birth. How he had wanted to pick her up and take the pain away, how he had wanted to tell her that he knew just how she felt. After all, he had once eaten a 1 kilo block of cheese in one day.
Maybe one day Fabio will grace the cover of a book with my name on it?
