100k. What do you think of when you hear it? Money Money. That’s the usual answer. A goal for many of us, once upon a time. Still for some, I’m sure. A measure of worth, based upon pay. So often it is the professional’s measure of having arrived. Financially at least. These days, it may […]
Countdown to the French Open Day 1
Paris? Tennis? Irresistible combination? OUI! More irresistible than French men? Mmm. Tough one. But we’re counting down. Just hours away now. And what could be better than Paris in the spring, and Grand Slam Tennis? The only thing I can think of is being there – rather than watching on television. But watching I shall […]
Caught With Your Pants Down?
Caught in an innocent but compromising scene. Now what?
Post Post it Post-its Post
Hey. That Momalom thing. You know. Two babes. Writers. Sisters. A little… um… wacky. Because who reads and comments on more than 100 blogs over the course of 10 days, each day? Who is so inspiring (or nuts) they entice 100 others to do the same? And I don’t mean Blah-g Blah-g Blah-g, either. I […]

Why I’m Fond of Isopropyl Alcohol

Frankly, I kept waiting for action hero Jason Bourne to pop […]
People Pleasers: Just Say No
People pleasing behavior can be bad for your health.
Teach Me to Fish. Please.
The rod, the reel, or the ready-made meal There are times you’re too rushed to get to everything scribbled on the daily checklist. Not even close. So you ask for help, and it arrives. You breathe a sigh of relief. There are times you’re too worn out to get anything done. You ask for help. […]
Lust and Lingerie
Corsets The satiny fabric. The slow and careful snap of the hooks against soft flesh. The touches of trim or lace. Strong boning that tightens my waist and accentuates my natural curves. Corsets. I love them. For some, corsets may seem the very antithesis of what today’s woman might consider acceptable, much less enjoy. Yet […]
Kitch Witch Fun (South Park Style)
Pop over to The Kitch Witch and see the total weekend awesomeness she found! Recreate yourself as a South Park character, courtesy of SP-Studio. It’s oooooo-la-la fun! Yes – c’est moi ! Beam me up Scotty… straight over to the Atlantic, hovering for a few moments over the Louvre, absolument over Centre Pompidou (art, art, […]
