Jonathan Bradshaw from Vandalia, Missouri won last week’s contest.
The way he uses music to be romantic would make any woman
swoon. I’ll be printing his story in an upcoming issue of The RoMANtic
Newsletter.

Athena and I are great lovers of travel. In fact, that is why there
was no tip of the week last week. We were taking a romantic getaway.
We are visiting foreign countries and interesting places as often as
possible.

For this week’s contest,
I’d like to ask how you make travel more romantic. I’m looking for the
fun or creative things you do (or have done) that make a trip extra
memorable.

I thank you for these contests. They’re a
whole lot of fun to read, but with each one, I’m
brought back to all of the wonderful memories of
things my fiance has done to show his love. We’ll be
married this August, and I thank you for all of the
sparks that you’ve started. Sincerely, Christine Klecka
Annandale, NJ

My macho boyfriend recently gave me the most romantic gift…
curtains. They’re romantic to me because of the deep thought
behind them and the preparation that went into making them. You
see, he came to my house late one night and observed that one
could in fact see through the blinds of my window. I thought the
blinds were enough and no one could see in the window. I was
wrong. He was concerned.

So, he went to the fabric store and picked out fabric that
matched the colors in my bedroom. He could have easily just
BOUGHT the curtains. But no, he wanted to make them. Of
course, that was more special to me. This great guy spent a
Friday night making my drapes.

Since he is such a perfectionist, he first ironed the fabric.
I watched him with needle and thread as he hemmed the final seams,
his attempt at domesticity couldn’t have been more sexy or romantic.
The show of concern and the thought that went into these drapes are
always remembered when I look up at them.

And, they turned out really good! Too good on that first morning…
I OVERSLEPT because I wasn’t used to the amount of light cut off
by my drapes. So, that’s my great boyfriend. Though his friends aren’t
supposed to know he can actually sew. It’s just not macho, right?
