ARIES (Mar1. 21- April 20)
Aries individuals will be starving when they arrive at your door because their forceful, fiery2 nature burns through food at a rapid rate. These Rams3 are remarkably4 gregarious5 and will be delighted with whatever you choose to quench6 their hearty7 appetite. But they do love extravagant8 foods and pungent9 spices drive them wild. So serve them Steamed Brocolini with Garlic Lemon Butter and Savory10 Pumpkin11 Soup. Champagne12 will also be a big hit if you have it, but red wine will do nicely.
白羊:心急火燎的羊儿早就饿得不行了,无论你用什么食物款待,他们都会很高兴。不过他们最爱的还是有辛辣味的大餐,因此加入蒜头柠檬黄油的椰菜和美味的南瓜汤一定是不错的选择。要是再来瓶香槟或是红酒什么的那就更好了。
TAURUS (Apr. 21 - May 21)
Taurus make courteous13 guests with their desire for simple, earthy foods... plus they are not picky eaters. In harmony with nature, determined14 and masterful, these Bulls have the ability to get along with everyone. Before dinner, you may find them showing off your garden to the guests, as they delight in the beauty nature provides. You can seduce15 them with voluptuous16 fruits, sensual delights and full-bodied wines.
金牛:牛儿不是挑剔的食客,简单、随意的食物就能将他们搞定。憨厚朴实的金牛座可以很快与每位客人熟络起来。他们对美丽、天然的东西很有兴趣,因此你用鲜美的水果和香浓的美酒招待他们绝对错不了。
GEMINI (May 22 - June 21)
Geminis love to be invited to dinner, sometimes more for the social occasion than the food. They are clever, quick-witted... and in their element when surrounded by family and friends. If there is a lull17 in conversation, don’t worry, with Geminis the banter18 never stops. The Twins have an intellectual response to food, but can be enticed19 with exotic ingredients, ethereal tastes and chilled white or sparkling wines. 双子:通常双子座去赴宴在意的不是食物而是那种热闹的氛围。聪明、健谈的他们在任何社交场合都是聚焦中心,有他们在就绝对不会冷场。当然,双子座对食物也有自己独特的口味。异国美味、冰冻的白酒或汽酒都是他们的喜欢的。
CANCER (June 22 - July 22)
Warm, nurturing20, fun and outgoing, Cancer are an asset to any occasion. Make sure they know how yummy the food will be when you invite them, since the promise of a scrumptious meal will be more alluring21 than the graciousness of the host. They love foods that are comforting and almost any wine. Tasty biscuits and Mashed22 Yellow Turnips23 are two comfort foods that will be greatly appreciated.
巨蟹:热情友好的蟹子适合出入任何场合。既然美味的大餐比主人的盛情更具诱惑力,他们一定把全部心思都放在品尝食物上了。舒适可口的食物和几乎所有的酒都能令他们心动。精致诱人的甜点和鲜美嫩黄的芜菁一定是款待他们的最好的食物。
LEO (July 23 - Aug. 22)
Leos enjoy being asked out to eat and are charismatic, fun-loving guests. Grand and luxurious24 evenings are most appealing.

These proud, self-confident Lions are generous, childish and loving and will be delighted with rich red wine – the best you can afford.
狮子:爱交际的狮子喜欢参加各种宴会,尤其是那种盛大豪华的晚宴。用最尊贵的仪式款待他们是必不可少的。像浓烈的红酒就最适合骄傲、自信,既慷慨又有些孩子气的狮子。
VIRGO (Aug. 23 - Sept. 23)
Virgos love an opportunity to be social and they get along with all types of people. Concerned with health and cleanliness, they can be very fussy25 about their food. But they will also be the ones most likely to stay behind and help clean the kitchen – so be sure to invite them! Virgins26 are open to new food ideas, so serve them Corn Bread Stuffing and Green Bean Casserole.
处女:处女座喜欢交际应酬,并且能与各种类型的人打成一片。他们对食物很挑剔,尤其注重食物的营养和卫生。但是他们也是最有可能留下来帮助主人收拾厨房的客人,因此一定要邀请这样的客人哦!处女座喜欢新鲜的食物,类似玉米面包或青豆这样的蔬菜很受他们的欢迎。
LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23)
Libras like to keep all their options open so they can go whichever way the wind blows, but if you can get a commitment to your invitation, it will be a very rewarding experience. The Scales have a burning desire for harmony, are concerned with fair play, and utilize27 their diplomatic skills to ensure the evening is full of laughter and stimulating28 conversation. Delight them with interesting dishes like Black Eyed Peas with Sausage and Waldorf Salad.
天秤:如果邀请秤子赴宴一定不会吃亏,你会在日后得到他们的回报。秤子很注重宴会的气氛,他们会发挥自己的交际才能让整个晚宴充满欢笑与和谐。裹着香肠和色拉的黑豌豆一定会让他们喜欢。
SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22)
When you invite passionate30 Scorpios to dinner, be prepared to serve an excellent meal. They strive for perfection and will expect the same from you. Serve them plenty of rich red wine... and then be prepared, because they will tell you exactly what they think. When they say they loved your meal, you will know it is the truth. Serve them Pecan Stuffing and Fig-Walnut Salad to appeal to their mysterious side.
天蝎:邀请热情的蝎子来赴宴一定要准备丰盛的大餐哦。他们可是追求完美的食客。香浓的红酒自然少不了。一旦他们说很喜欢你的饭菜,一定是事实。用核桃做填充料再配上胡核色拉的食物肯定会很吸引神秘的蝎子。
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21)
Sagittarius can arrive at your door dripping from a rainstorm and still be enthusiastic and jovial31 – they have the ability to make the absolute best from any situation. These jokesters of the zodiac will be quite happy to provide the entertainment, as they love to be surrounded by people. They are extravagant and overindulgent, so have plenty of good wine on hand. Macaroni and Cheese with Parmesan Cheese Topping, and Sage29 Gravy32 will appeal to their zesty33 personalities34.
射手:即便刚被大雨淋湿,天性乐观的射手还是会带着最好的心情来赴宴。爱说笑的他们是众人瞩目的焦点,是聚会上的开心果。一定要有足够的好酒才能让他们淋漓尽致地发挥自己的长处哦。意大利的通心面、芝士和美味肉汁一定很合他们的口味。
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20)
Workaholic Capricorns can be a challenge to get to your table... so tempt35 them with mention of the fine foods you will be serving. These guests possess a black sense of humor that can add just the twist your party needs. Caviar and champagne are two Capricorn favorites – but they love all kinds of foods, as long as they are high quality. The mixed, caramelized flavors of Collard Greens with Sweet Onion and Maple36 Cured Bacon, and Roasted Root Vegetables will satisfy their tastes.
摩羯:迎接像摩羯座这样工作狂的客人对你是一个挑战。因此提及你是如何准备食物可能会引起他们的兴致。带着黑色幽默气质的摩羯座正好也为派对增添了别样的趣味。鱼子酱和香槟是他们的最爱,不过只要口感好的食物他们也喜欢。甜洋葱,熏肉配上烘干的蔬菜一定会让他们喜欢。
AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19)
You will want to have at least one Aquarius at any gathering37. These unique, futuristic creatures are one of the friendliest, most social signs. Be sure you maintain the discerning eye of the well-organized host, as Aquarians can become so caught up in the social side of the affair, they forget to eat all together. Serving Garlic Mashed Potatoes and Baked Acorn38 Squash will bring them back to earth.
水瓶:在任何场合至少有一个水瓶座参加就最好了。因为他们是所有星座里最友好,最善交际的。你切记要事先安排好所有组织工作,不然善交际的瓶子可能会喧宾夺主,忘了吃而去招待客人了。不过加入大蒜的马铃薯泥和烘烤的南瓜说不定能将他们拉回餐桌哦。
PISCES (Feb. 20 - Mar. 20)
Pisces love convivial39 gatherings40, so – although the last of the 12 signs – they will most likely be one of the first to accept your invitation. They are natural comedians41 with just the right mix of mystical, sensitive, inspirational and impractical42 humor. The Fish will love whatever you provide and can quite easily convince themselves and others that a simple meal is a feast. But you can be sure that Sweet Potato Biscuits and Southern Oyster43 Dressing44 will be their special favorites.
双鱼:尽管是12星座里的最后一个,喜欢热闹的鱼儿却是最有可能第一个接受你邀请的客人哦。他们是天生的喜剧演员,能将包含神秘、敏感和梦幻等各类情感完美地演绎。双鱼座喜欢你准备的所有食物,还能很轻意地说服他人喜欢你的大餐。但是你也要知道甘薯类的点心和南方牡蛎是他们的最爱。
