We’re betting you’ll find a story or two to savor as you sip a mint julep, study the daily racing form, and pick out your Derby hat. We hope you enjoy.

I know I asked everyone to tell me their favorite thing about Romance but you know, I'm not even sure I can name just one thing. Romance makes you feel all ooey gooey inside lol. Romance makes me think of my husband actually. He'd never admit to it but he is absolutely a romantic at heart. I remember when we were dating....we met online :) We talked for two months before we ever met face to face. I swear I lived for those texts until we worked our way up to that nerve-racking first phone call and then whew....what a voice. To this day, I still get all fluttery when he calls me out of the blue. He used to write poems for me, which i've kept every one and he likes to buy me those mushy cards I love. We lived about 3 hours apart when we were dating, which was awful so once when we had plans to meet in Auburn Hills for a Piston's game, I met him at our hotel and he had a handmade card waiting for me on the bed with another poem he'd written. Made me cry when i saw it. Any way, after a while we finally moved in together, mixing our family of 4 children and for my birthday one year he gave me the ultimate in poems inside a lumpy card. He'd written a poem telling me how much he loved me and couldn't live without me and asked me to marry him. The ring was taped to the inside of the card :)
My oldest daughter and I have spent the last few hours watching youtube where people posted the ultimate marriage proposals. I swear I cried for every one of them but I'll never trade my own lumpy card!
Thanks for stopping by today and sharing your favorite thing about Romance and don't forget to visit all the other sites below......happy hopping :)
