Toss the ring at her during the commercial break of the football game, and say, "beer me."
That way, she'll know what she's in for.
Seriously, sounds nice. Kudos on getting the ring. I lived in the historic district of our town when I propsed on the balcony of my apartment - the second floor of a 240 year old mansion ($430 a month!). The balcony overlooking the bay made a really nice proposal spot.
Doing it in a way that makes it memorable is best, and sounds like what you're doing. My one flaw was doing it in a memorable place, but not on a memorable date, but she's only played that "what day is it?" card with me once.
As for her being a petite, vegetarian, pink sweater wearing liberal, and you being the opposite. Yes, opposites mostly attract. Consider the fact that she's a <i>woman</i> and you're a <i>man</i>.
