...so, the lighting was dim and small candles flickered a small seductive dance, while soft Mediterranean music floated about. The decor was that of a Tuscan village under a setting sun....aah, the atmosphere, the aromas, the food...all delicious.
Waiters filled glasses with icy clear water, while others served appetizers, or entree's or fresh baked breads - all warmed - all glorious.
Couples were sprinkled here and over there, enjoying their meals, their partners, their Valentine dining experience. Soft conversation was spoken over small cups of espresso, and chilled wine, while savoring samples of white and dark chocolate mousse cake drizzled with red raspberry sauce and shaved curlicues of dark chocolate...
Our pretty waitress, with her dark eyes, and dark brown hair bid us a good evening with her fabulous rich accent and hoped that we would return again soon. We thanked her and assured her we couldn't wait to come back.
Yes, a perfectly romantic dinner for two, on a perfectly romantic Valentine weekend..........
....that was, of course, until I misjudged the one small step while exiting the dining room - and stumbled - and fell - completely and totally to the floor...knees..then hips..then hands...all very loudly - to an audience of not-so-romantic - Valentine gasps..
...!!!!!!......
..........
The best part: My husband, Bud, not the least bit embarrassed, bent down and helped me up - and then leaned over to dust my knees off for me.
Now that's what I call love folks....!!
