Description:

This lively hour of stories, songs and poems about love were performed before a live audience at Aroma Thyme Bistro in Ellenville, New York.

Among the highlights of the evening was a parody of "Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolfe?" called "Who's Afraid of a Virginian's Wrath?" as played by George and Martha Washington, performed by husband and wife team Joe Bevilacqua and Lorie Kellogg.

Also featured are:
- Steve Krulick singing schmaltzy love songs from the early 20th century,
- new poetry from Frank Malley
- the comedy of Ray Faiola and Wayne Hosford
- Lorie Kellogg singing "The Aroma Thyme Bistro Opera" and reading "Ode to a Transfer Station,"
-Joe and Lorie in a sketch called "Valentine Vignette."

There is also some great piano playing by Wayne Hosford and a healthy eating tip from Aroma Thyme Bistro owner and chef Marcus Giuliano.

The hour is hosted and produced by Joe Bevilacqua, with additional music by Paul Salomone.
