[QUOTE="helotaxi, post: 378770, member: 550915"] That's how I gave my wife her engagement ring. I had a whole big elaborate plan but she had made other plans for the weekend, and I couldn't insist on blowing off all her plans without her thinking something was up, so I had to work on the fly. I brought flowers when I picked her up. I bought the bear at the florist and one of the girls there made a big elaborate bow around the bear's neck with the ring in the middle of it. She was gawking at the ring the whole time (it's quite the beautiful stone and a pretty unique band). Towards the end of the night I gave my wife the bear. It took a moment for her to notice the ring (**** darkness), but when she did, I got down on my knee and asked her to marry me. Now I know you are not proposing, but the bear works. There are tons of things you can do at dinner. It could be on the desert tray. It could "magically" appear next to her plate when she isn't looking. You could figure out a way to embarass the hell out of her with the assistance of the wait-staff. You could have it rolled into the napkin (please tell me the resturant you are going to has cloth napkins). It could be around the dozen roses she finds in her seat in the car when you pick her up. The possibilities are endless. One thing to consider is the closer to the end of the night, the fresher it is in her mind when it comes time for her to repay your thoughtfulness, if you catch my drift. [/QUOTE]
