The latest Crate & Barrel catalog features a page of ideas for a romantic night with your loved one, and it stars a pasta-loving male couple.
The store's January Inspiration 2013 catalog has a section titled "Us & Always," about a perfect night in (of course, that involves pasta makers, wine glasses, and espresso machines). "Us & Always" showcases a mixed-race gay couple using the expensive kitchen equipment, toasting, and finally eating their meal. The page's caption reads, "Spend a Saturday night at home, cooking together, dining together. Music, candlelight, and a good bottle of wine, and you can have the table as long as you like."
