Purple Alstroemerias

I'll keep this brief and to the point as possible since I have a tendency to write a lot in one sitting. The flowers: huge success. She wasn't expecting them, but they also weren't the ones I intended to buy. Buying a single red rose at Walmart didn't work out for me. Now, there were a dozen for twelve dollars, and there were five peach colored roses for five dollars, but I wasn't sure if she'd like the peach colored ones. Fortunately I had the extra help of actually knowing this lady better than the others. We spend the most time together, so I was able to see that the pink roses weren't going to work out. I went with purple alstroemerias instead, which looked very lovely and I figured she would also enjoy. When I brought them over, I received a very warm welcome after bringing them out from behind my back. I was asked to come inside and, further more, received kisses. Now, I'm not saying this flower surprise would have worked the same if this had been the first date. I'm sure it would have taken much longer to be given kisses for bringing flowers.
The jacket idea was also another good one. I didn't even have to wear it. I set it off to the side with a bag I'd brought with me and when she looked cold, offered if she'd like to wear it. She accepted. Also, the smores was an even better idea. I ended up offering to go roast her marshmallows. At first, she said no, and that she'd rather do this herself, but when the fire was getting uncomfortably hot and smokey and she didn't desire to be near it, I was there to roast her marshmallows exactly the way she wanted.
The only other details that also helped in making the evening a success are offering my arm for her to hold on to so she did not trip in the dark on the way back to the car and opening the door of the car for her. It really seemed to work and she didn't seem to throw a fit about it. The only hard part is getting the door back open for her when I drop her back off. She instinctively goes for the handle and gets out when I do. I'm still trying to figure out how I'm going to work that out. I'm also worried about offering to do too much for her. I don't want her to feel as if she thinks I don't believe she cannot do things on her own. I know she is perfectly capable. I just would like to be polite and courteous. I suppose I'll be posting later if she protests more or less to my offers of assistance. Till then.
