A Little Light Romance

A Little Light Romance

Let me tell you, I’m a dreamer–always have been, probably always will be. “Moonlight and Roses” is one of my favorite songs and I’ll bet not many of you have ever heard it. It’s an old, gentle, romantic song. Like a lot of things, I’m afraid the word romance has taken on a new meaning […]
