TMI Tuesday-Sex Games People Play

Happy New Year Everyone!  I hope that everyone had a great New Year's Eve and is ready to tackle hug 2013!

Questions submitted by Virtualsin.wordpress.com

1. Did you ever play strip poker (or strip spin-the-bottle, or similar)?
Did nudity result? Were there further developments? Details please.                                            I have never played either, but am open to the idea.

2. Did you ever play a nude party game, such as Naked Twister? Did it
lead to anything further?                                                                                                                           Not Naked Twister, but when Hubman and I went to our favorite swinger parties in Massachusetts, the hosts had this game called "Guess the butt".  A group of guys or girls would line up, and a member of the opposite sex would go around blindfolded, feeling each butt until he or she found the butt she came with.  I played this once and was unsuccessful in guessing Hubman's butt.

3. Did you ever play a game of Truth or Dare that led to nudity, or
fondling, or more?                                                                                                                                     No.  Clearly I need to get out more.

4. Did you ever attend a party that led to sex with a more or less randomly chosen partner, i.e., swingers-lifstyle party, key party*?
*key party – A couples party where all of the men put their car keys into a bowl or bag and at the end of the party, the women blindly select a set of keys to determine who she goes home with for the rest of the evening for sexual gratification.                                                                                                                             Hubman and I attended several swinger parties, and even managed to get busy with others a time or two.

5. Did you ever participate in unexpected co-ed skinny dipping in a
group?                                                                                                                                                          Hot tub yes. Pool or ocean no.

Bonus: Do you have a favorite fantasy about a sexy party?
Please share.                                                                                                                                                 Me, Hubman, a few close and lovely lady friends, in a suite in a warm and sunshiny place.  Some champagne and times so good that the Westboro Baptist Church will protest our vacation.

Happy TMI Tuesday!

So far I have one child who believes in Santa and one who does not.  I am sure that the Princess will join her brother in the non-belief some day, but I can still have them appreciate the spirit of Christmas.  

"DEAR EDITOR: I am 8 years old.
"Some of my little friends say there is no Santa Claus.
"Papa says, 'If you see it in THE SUN it's so.'
"Please tell me the truth; is there a Santa Claus?

"VIRGINIA O'HANLON.
"115 WEST NINETY-FIFTH STREET."

VIRGINIA, your little friends are wrong. They have been affected by the skepticism of a skeptical age. They do not believe except they see. They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensible by their little minds. All minds, Virginia, whether they be men's or children's, are little. In this great universe of ours man is a mere insect, an ant, in his intellect, as compared with the boundless world about him, as measured by the intelligence capable of grasping the whole of truth and knowledge.

Yes, VIRGINIA, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy. Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no Santa Claus. It would be as dreary as if there were no VIRGINIAS. There would be no childlike faith then, no poetry, no romance to make tolerable this existence. We should have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight. The eternal light with which childhood fills the world would be extinguished.

Not believe in Santa Claus! You might as well not believe in fairies! You might get your papa to hire men to watch in all the chimneys on Christmas Eve to catch Santa Claus, but even if they did not see Santa Claus coming down, what would that prove? Nobody sees Santa Claus, but that is no sign that there is no Santa Claus. The most real things in the world are those that neither children nor men can see. Did you ever see fairies dancing on the lawn? Of course not, but that's no proof that they are not there. Nobody can conceive or imagine all the wonders there are unseen and unseeable in the world.
You may tear apart the baby's rattle and see what makes the noise inside, but there is a veil covering the unseen world which not the strongest man, nor even the united strength of all the strongest men that ever lived, could tear apart. Only faith, fancy, poetry, love, romance, can push aside that curtain and view and picture the supernal beauty and glory beyond. Is it all real? Ah, VIRGINIA, in all this world there is nothing else real and abiding.

No Santa Claus! Thank God! he lives, and he lives forever. A thousand years from now, Virginia, nay, ten times ten thousand years from now, he will continue to make glad the heart of childhood.

And because they are my favorite... here are some great Christmas surprises



I also love this one

Christmas Meme

I stole this from Hubman and goodness only knows where he got it from.

1. Eggnog or Hot Chocolate?                                                                                                           Hot chocolate, especially Starbuck's Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate.  

2. Does Santa wrap presents or just sit them under the tree?                                                    Not only does Santa wrap them, he uses a special wrapping paper that is not used on any other gifts, and gets someone from their office to write out the labels so the kids don't recognize the handwriting. 

3. Colored lights on the tree/house or white?                                                                           Colored lights on the tree, white lights outside.  I love the people that go absolutely nuts with the lights, but I don't think I would have the patience to hang all of those lights.  

4. Do you hang mistletoe?                                                                                                                  No, we do not.  But maybe I should find me some mistletoe panties.

5. When do you put your decorations up?                                                                                        I put out my holiday themed plates- 

Nikko's Winter Wonderland the Day after Thanksgiving and we decorate the house the weekend after Thanksgiving.  We get the tree about 10-14 days before Christmas.  We usually get the tree from a local lot that sells for charity (Scouts, Lions) but some friends gave me some leads on some places in PA where we can cut down our own tree. 

6. What is your favorite holiday dish (excluding dessert)?                                                      Growing up in an Italian family, I loved the feast of the seven fishes on Christmas Eve. However, now that I live with people who don't really enjoy fish we don't do that.  I usually make lasagna for Christmas dinner and grilled cheese sandwiches with pepperoni bread for lunch.  Now that Hubman and I are trying to live the low carb life, both of these are a big treat. 

7. Favorite holiday memory as a child?                                                                                            Growing up my mom hosted Christmas and everyone came to our house.  This continued through high school and college, and I always loved how she welcomed my friends over for the extended dinner.  Since the bulk of my friends were jewish, they enjoyed coming over for some baked ziti and chicken marsalla for dinner.  For me that welcoming spirit is what Christmas is all about.

8. When and how did you learn the truth about Santa?                                                               I learned late (12) when a friend of mind was incredulous that I still believed.  However I do believe in Santa as part of the spirit of Christmas. 

9. Do you open gifts on Christmas Eve?                                                                                         Hubman and I have developed a tradition of exchanging ‘naughty Santa’ gifts on Christmas Eve. Thankfully last year I could not make up my mind between two items, so I saved one for this year.  This is a good thing, since I do not know where the naughty store is around here.

10. What kind of cookies does Santa get set out for him?                                                        I'm thinking he will get fudge crinkles and peanut butter cookies with the Hershey Kisses in them.

11. Snow! Love it or dread it?                                                                                                                  I used to love it, but like birthday parties, candy binges and wearing lots of pink, glittery clothes, snow is for children.

12. Can you ice skate?                                                                                                                               I can.  I can go forwards, backwards, fast and do spins.   Its one of the few sports where I am more skilled than Hubman.                                                                                                                      

13. Do you remember your favorite gift?                                                                                            When I was six I got the Barbie Dream House with the elevator you would pull with a string.  

More recently?  Last year Hubman and the kids bought me a beautiful necklace with a red heart with matching earrings.

14. What’s the most important thing about the holidays for you?                                           Spending time with my family.  Hopefully seeing three delighted faces. 

15. What is your favorite holiday dessert?                                                                                    I'm a slut for the cookies, even though they are easy to binge on.  

16. What is your favorite holiday tradition?                                                                                    I love our pajama day Christmas.  The kids get holiday themed pj's which they wear Christmas Eve, and all day Christmas day. Hubman and I wear holiday pajamas too.  Then we hang around the house all day and watch movies and enjoy the gifts and each other. 

17. What tops your tree?                                                                                                                         An angel, placed each year by Princess Persistent

18. What do you prefer… giving or receiving?                                                                                 I love the giving part.  There is no better feeling than seeing the look on someone's face when you got them a present that they really like.  I am also a big fan of getting toys for toy drives and adopting a family.

19. What is your favorite Christmas carol?                                                                                    In church I love to sing Angels We Have Heard on High.  I also love Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, and I am partial to Martina McBride's Version.

20. Candy canes… yuck or yum?                                                                                                  Yummy!

21. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present?                                                                         No, but I have returned things.

22. Favorite Christmas movie?                                                                                                          Miracle on 34th Street.  (The 1994 Version)

23. Do you have a nativity scene?                                                                                                      We do, it looks more like a kids toy that a traditional one, however.  I think about getting a really nice Lenox type one, and spending a few years doing add a piece for Christmas, but I have not found a set I really like yet.

24. What’s the most annoying thing about this time of year?                                                    The fact that Christmas stuff comes out earlier and earlier every year. 

BTW, for those of you interested, Hubman and I both did some naughty Christmas Pictures. 

Award Winning Cookies

Ok, I didn't win an award, but I did win my office bake-off with these cookies.  I love to make cookies at Christmas, and I used to pride myself on making elaborate cookies with tons of ingredients.

Now, I am into keeping things simple, especially since I have 'helpers' when I bake.  With an extra person (or two) involved in the process, if I have a recipe with 10 ingredients, unless I lay them all out before the kids start helping, there is a chance that something would be forgotten.

These cookies are very simple, with only 4 ingredients.  They come together quickly and are delicious.  I found this recipe in Taste of Home Magazine, where a lot of good cookie recipes live.

I haven't experimented, but I bet you can switch around the cookie dough and type of chips and make a lot of different, tasty cookies.

Creme de Menthe Cheesecake Cookies (Makes 4 Dozen)

Ingredients
1 Tube Slice and Bake Sugar Cookie Dough
1 8oz Package Cream Cheese, softened
1 egg
1 1/3 Cup Mint Chocolate Chips

Directions
1. Let cookie dough stand at room temperature for 5 minutes to soften.
2. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy.
3. Add egg and cookie dough, beat until combined.
4. Add mint chips and mix well
5. Drop on ungreased cookie sheets 2 inches apart.  (I use parchment paper)
6. Bake at 350 for 9-12 minutes or until lightly browned.
7. Cool for 2 minutes on cookie sheet before moving to wire rack to cool completely

They are not the prettiest cookies, but they are yumtastic!

Sandy Hook

I am still reeling from the events of Friday at Sandy Hook Elementary School.  As the parent of two children, one the same age as many of the slaughtered children, this evil event just rocks me to the core.

Many will be said in the next few days about gun control, mental illness, violence, etc., until we are distracted by something else.

I am still wrapping my thoughts around all of this so a cogent post is not happening tonight.  However, I leave you with the mashup of the Clinton, Bush, Obama speeches following some gun violence tragedies.

Cookie Exchange

As many of my long time readers know, I am a big fan of baking and cooking.  I especially love to bake during the holidays and I was thrilled when JZ of A Reluctant Bitch invited me to join this year's exchange.

Every year I try to make a new recipe, but Hubman would be very, very disappointed if a batch of these were not lying around.  You do need to chill the dough for at least three hours, so this is a plan ahead cookie, but that is not too hard.  What is hard is keeping errant spoons out of the chilling batter.
 
I also recommend keeping a damp paper towel to clean your hands a little so you can rinse them off periodically without totally wrecking your sink.

Chocolate Puffs (Makes 4doz)

1/4 lb softened butter

1 1/2C Sugar

1 Teaspoon Vanilla

6oz semisweet chocolate, melted (chips are fine)

4 eggs

2 C Flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

Pinch of Salt

Powdered Sugar

Parchment paper

1. Cream butter and sugar.

2. Add vanilla and melted chocolate, mix well

3. Add eggs, mix well

4. Add all dry ingredients except powdered sugar and mix well.

5. Cover with plastic wrap and chill 2-3 hours or over night- Dough is ready when you can roll into balls

6. Heat oven to 350, prepare baking sheets with parchment paper.

7. Roll dough into 1/2 inch balls.

8. Roll balls in powdered sugar, put on prepared pans, 2" apart.  do not try to squeeze extra on pans as they spread

9. Bake 10-12 min.

10. Remove cookies while on parchment and allow to cool completely.  

11. Carefully loosen edges with metal spatula and remove cookies from parchment (I find many of them fall off)

12. Store in airtight container so they stay chewy.

Sending Out A CockShot? Read This First

If you hang around with sex positive ladies on Twitter long enough, eventually you are going to get into a discussion about an unsolicited cock shot.  There are some articles online about the etiquette of sexting, but I wanted to specifically discuss the cock shot.

I know that very few people seem to get upset about unsolicited boob or pussy shots.  I know its terribly unfair that its so much easier for girls, but that is another discussion for another day.

Look- gratuitioous boobie shot and no one is offended.

So you are sitting around nekkid, camera phone in hand, getting ready to send a cock shot to a ladyfriend for the 1st time?  Before you do so, you should really ask yourself the following questions:

Q: Am I an elected official, actively trying to become an elected official or thinking about becoming an elected official
A: If you are in congress, or a high profile athlete who is married to the woman who is not the intended recipent of the photo, or something of a similar nature- I am going to say the answer is NO.

Remember this guy?

Don't be this guy.

Q: Are you 100% sure that the woman in question is over the age of 18?
A: If you are not sure, than do not hit send.

Q: Has this woman ever seen your cock before?
A: If she has seen your cock before and enjoys the view, by all means proceed.  Hubman frequently sends me photos of his manhood and I enjoy receiving them.

Q: If she has not seen your cock before, has she asked to see your cock?
A: If yes, than go for it.  If she has not asked, then perhaps you should ask before you surprise her with that photo.

Q: Should I email or text the photo?
A: How secure is her phone?  If like me, she has children that like to play with her phone-than an email or DM is a better idea.  If you are thinking of sending an email, please label it NSFW.

Q: Has she sent you pictures of her naughty bits?
A: If yes, than she would probably enjoy a picture of your cock.  If not, you can ask in a flirty way.  Its better to ask than have her mock you to her friends and possibly forward your picture around.

Once you have established  that it is a good idea to send that picture, lets discuss the picture itself.

The first thing to think about is what are you trying to say with that picture?  If you are trying to express that she makes you hard, try to get something in the picture to show that its recent and not something you dug out of your library.

If you are trying to express that your cock is so big that it should be named Cockzilla and have its own zip code, take a picture of your cock with something to compare it to, a cucumber or cruller or something.  When I just see a cock with no context,  I am not quite sure what to make of it.

Also, have you sent pictures of other body parts?  I never understand when I look at profiles online and all I see are pictures extreme cock closeup.  Maybe take and send some pictures of your butt, or chest or a nice full frontal before you go in for the cock closeup.

This would probably be a good time to discuss cockal aesthetics.   Are you neat and tidy, or does your bush resemble a 70's porn film?

Just a tip, being groomed makes you look bigger.  Another tip, many women do not want to look at a man's crotch and be reminded that she needs to buy dental floss.

Putting pictures of your cock on Twitter is fine, because that for general consumption, however please remember the rules about labeling NSFW.   Except for cock avatars.  They are just wrong because sometimes, its just too damn early in the morning to look at that.

Now that is a nice cock shot!
