Keeping it sweet
Dear Mrs Figgins:
I’m 27 years old and I have a date with a girl who has stolen my heart.
Our parents have been best friends for years. To be honest, I thought of her as a little sister, never giving it anything else a second thought.
But something special happened. We were at a family barbeque and a group of us were playing softball. She was so much fun! At the end of the ballgame she was head to toe full of dirt and my heart was full of her.
I asked her out to dinner next weekend. I don’t want to get too mushy but I want to at least add a romantic touch.
What do you think I should do?

Dear Smitten:
She sounds like a catch!
Dinner at a nice, fun place (nothing stuffy) is a great idea.
For a sweet and memorable touch, I suggest a delicious box of chocolates “personalized” with a special message on the ribbon. Surprise her – with the gift waiting at the table.
Ribbon message: “To a great teammate!” or “To my favorite teammate!” Add the date to the message (something tells me you might want it as a keepsake).
Have fun!
Mrs. Figgins
