Yet your beau comes through to a lovely surprise at the end! Love the way you've used the senses - the smells, the tastes, the sights. It made for a wistful experience.<br /><br />Don't forget to come back to RFW if you'd like to vote for your favourite entry this week. Go with your gut. Really should be someone who kept to the word limit and has a romantic element! Poll will go up Monday AEST.<br /><br />Thanks for entering! We made our 20 goal!<br /><br />DeniseDenise Covey https://www.blogger.com/profile/07106490051555233439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-596586419077019479.post-9001137482602713562012-08-25T16:01:14.092-07:002012-08-25T16:01:14.092-07:00Dear Sally,
