I am an old fashion type woman who likes my doors opened for me, my chairs pulled out and I love to dress up for my special man. I just adore romance..... candlelite dinners (restaurants or at home), champagne with strawberries, holding hands, cuddling and let's not forget about kissing.

However I am not a helpless woman either. I'm learning how to do small home improvements around my house like trimming out my windows, updating my cabinets and I want to learn how to put in a wood floor and ceramic tile.

I am looking for someone who is caring and romantic. Someone who enjoys holding hands, cuddling and just being together. I enjoy receiving things (cards, love notes, flowers, etc)for no special reason but I also love giving the same. I'd like to find someone special to spend the rest of my life with, to laugh with and just be as one. I'm looking for someone who wants to share their affection with me. Someone who likes to laugh, have a good time and not be serious all the time. I want to meet someone who will be totally open and honest with me. Who isn't afraid to tell me how it really is in a calm, cool and collected way. How am I doing so far?

I love most genre of music whether it be country, bluegrass, light jazz, oldies, etc - Can only handle heavy metal, rap and opera for a short while but will listen to it.

I love to cook and bake when my family and friends are over. My specialty is BBQ ribs. But also have been told I make a pretty good spaghetti sauce. I love to try new recipes.

I love movies, it doesn't matter if it's just sitting in the living room or in a theater. I like long walks however it just isn't the same without someone beside you. Something I haven't done in a long time and would like to start to do again is going to flea markets, antique stores and farmer's markets.

So, what do you think? Think we might have something in common? Email me and let's find out.

For the first meeting I would like to meet for coffee and just sit and chat about anything and everything.

For a first date it would be nice to have a lunch or dinner so we can talk and find out more about each other. Then possibly a nice long walk along the river.
