Smooth ways to ask her when would be the best time for her to meet for (she’s god for the day but doesn’t know what time)?

[Amtguy]

I finally got her to tell me she wants to go out to lunch. If this works out it will be the first time she has come to me out side of class work. 
 

I playful seguested it twice to her. when I suggested today that lunch on Saturday would be e great she stayed “ I already sayedid go, give me some time to tell you what time is best”.
 

So my question is this how do I coax the info out of her? I was going to give her a few days and then ask if she had a time because I would need to make reservations. And yes I understand things come up.Our last plans got foiled by poor planing,traffic and family members.

thoughts?

Why wait? He who hesitates is lost.

Why expect her to come to you with a time? Why not try the direct approach and just ask? You don't need to try anything smooth or ask in any special way. The point is to set a time and actually do it. As long as it gets done and you have lunch, you are okay. You can take all kinds of paths to get to the destination, and they are all fine... as long as you get to the destination.

Have an idea in mind and ask if it works for her. Say where you want to meet and what time. If she says ok, mission accomplished. If she can't make it then, ask when she is free so you can get the reservation and get everything confirmed. 

And most of all, relax. It doesn't need to be a big ordeal. Overthinking and planning like this will just make you more nervous. Treat it as a normal conversation, making plans. She's already expressed she is okay with going with you, so the scary part is over. Focus on getting the plans confirmed and then just enjoying being together.
