" If someone mentions &amp;quot;vampires&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;dining&amp;quot; to you and the first thing you think of is Count Chocula, you&amp;#039;ve been out of touch.  The angsty-teen vampire hit Twilight has inspired more than mere swooning: it now has a cookbook to call all its own. Love at First Bite: The Unofficial Twilight Cookbook by Gina Meyers hit the shelves late in the spring giving Twilight fans not only more information about their favorite saga, but recipes, Twilight-themed party planning tips, and a trivia quiz, to boot.  OK, it&amp;#039;s not Ma stering the Art of French Cooking, but it isn&amp;#039;t meant to be, either, as if recipes such as Bella&amp;#039;s Instant Mashed Potatoes, Vampire Cupcakes, or Forbidden Love Coconut Crumb Lemon Squares didn&amp;#039;t already make that obvious.  Of course, Twilight-themed cooking doesn&amp;#039;t end with the cookbook. Up in Washington State&amp;#039;s Olympic Peninsula where the Twilight saga plays itself out, several restaurants in the little town of Forks \u2013 Twilight&amp;#039;s home base \u2013 offer plenty of vampiry dishes, too.  Pacific Pizza offers a full Twilight menu, according to server Diane Nelson. How about a helping of Bellasagna with a side order Ed Bread and Swan Salad?  The Twilight series &amp;quot;is one of the best things to happen to this town,&amp;quot; said Nelson, who has worked at Pacific Pizza for eight years. She&amp;#039;s now bracing herself for the latest film in the series, Twilight: Eclipse which she expects to bring even more business. &amp;quot;Once that movie comes out on the 30th,&amp;quot; she said, &amp;quot;it&amp;#039;ll be unreal.&amp;quot; Not in the mood for lasagna? You might consider a stop at Sully&amp;#039;s Drive-In for a Bella Burger, but only if you like pineapple on your hamburger. At least I assume they&amp;#039;re still offering it. When I called a woman replied &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;re a little busy right now. Can you call back later?&amp;quot; OK, it was 2 o&amp;#039;clock which is still pretty much the lunch rush for many restaurants.  Finally, for a romantic evening, drive up Highway 101 to Port Angeles (my mother&amp;#039;s hometown, by the way) and have dinner at Bella Italia, the restaurant fans will recognize as the place where Bella and Edward had their very first date and &amp;quot;a delicious dinner of mushroom ravioli,&amp;quot; as the restaurant&amp;#039;s Web site notes.  Ah, love at first bite. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
