Local Column

This column, "Romancing the 'Fe," is written under the pseudonym "Ruby Peru." A humorous take on innovative dating ideas in Santa Fe, it is published in each issue of Local Flavor. In the column I try to awaken that part of you that wants to spark a new relationship or reignite an old flame by getting out of the house and enjoying some of the unique entertainments that Santa Fe and surrounding areas offer. I have explored everything from intimate music concerts to hot springs resorts, from art studio tours to romantic waterfall hikes. You never know what new ideas Ruby Peru is going to dig up. These outings are sometimes ideal for married couples, sometimes for first-dating teens, and sometimes for married couples that want to feel like first-dating teens.

Ruby takes a date out to experience each and every dating idea she recommends and rates the experience as to its romance-factor for different types of couples and their personal romance needs. Want to impress a girl or guy who loves adventure? Ruby has a date for that. Want to get snuggly with your wife of 40 years? Ruby has a date for that. Want to be silly, laugh your head off, and get to know someone new? Ruby even has a date for that. If you live in Santa Fe, get Local Flavor and tear out the column each month. Keep them in an idea file for when you meet that special someone. Or just come check my website, where we will soon have all the columns posted for your enjoyment.
