Can an instance reference variable refer to an anonymous class?

Yes, an instance variable can reference an instance of an anonymous class. Can you write some code to demonstrate this?

interface Lovable {
   void kiss();
   void hug();
}
 
class LoveFactory {
   private int tongue = 1;
 
   Lovable lv = new Lovable() {
                    public void kiss() { tongue++; }
                    public void hug() { tongue = 0; }
                   };
                   
   public static void main( String [] args ) {
       new LoveFactory().lv.kiss();
   }
}
 

Implication of code: If you can't kiss, your're not lovable!!

I had a slightly less interesting example in mind...
