HOMMUS - Grace settled down in her chair outside, with the sun umbrella placed to give her shade, and chatted with Lisa and Roxanne on Zoom while dipping her Peckish crackers into a lovely little ceramic bowl containing the hommus she’d made earlier.

SMITTEN - Unbeknownst to Grace, Edward was quite smitten with her, and found himself picturing her smiling face as he went about his daily routine.

NUTS - In fact, Edward felt such a joyous lift in his heart thinking about her that he muttered to himself, “Let’s face it, Edward - you’re nuts about the lady”, and began planning a gift for the dogs - for he’d noted that Grace loved her two boys.

SWEET - Sitting down and enjoying the beautiful sunshine Grace was touched by the gifts Edward had bought for the dogs.  Whispering in his ear later that it was so sweet of him doing this.

TIRING - The ball launcher gift was certainly keeping the dogs very occupied, with no sign of them tiring as they charged in turn after the balls and then came rushing back to drop the ball, panting, at Grace’s feet.

GOOGLED - Grace felt bad about it, but she googled Edward to see if his online presence was as gentlemanly and caring as his physical presence appeared to be.

DID - Did you remember to buy toothpaste Grace?

DISCOVER - There wasn't much to discover about Edward online, as he didn't appear to be on social media (which Grace actually quite liked), although she did find a couple of articles in the local news relating to his sporting prowess in his younger days - and yes, she did discover the toothpaste she had bought in the bathroom cupboard.

RELATED - Grace was  enjoying reading about Edward when she came across some information that Edward might be related to her!

DOCUMENTED - Looking at the web page, it seemed that Edward’s great-grandmother might be her maternal great-great-grandfather’s sister… which would be such an interesting connection - but how on earth could she mention the possibility to see whether this was accurately documented without revealing that she’d been checking up on his online information?
