Sensual Saturday - How to Have a 1 Night Stand

I love writing and reading books from the 1 Night Stand series. I'm sure by now many of you are hooked on these stories. But how would you like to have a 1 Night Stand of your own with the honey you've been with through thick and thin, tears and laughter, kids and pets?

 

Pick a nice quiet night when it’s just the two of you.  

Cold autumn nights are perfect for a fire in the fireplace.

Here's how to start... darken a large room, perhaps the living room. Be sure the room is lit by firelight and/or candles. If you use scented candles, select vanilla or spice. Toss some fluffy pillows onto the floor. (I suggest satin in jewel tones.)  Spread a soft blanket or two next to the pillows.( Blankets should be fleece or Indian blankets. Avoid busy designs, itchy wool or children’s patterns.) Bravo if you have a fur rug and use it for what it's meant to be used for!

 Romantic lighting, sensual fabrics, you just need skin to skin contact and you are all set for a deeply intimate encounter.  Hmm…sounds nice doesn’t it? 

Truly enjoy that special alone time with your honey, pour a couple glasses of wine and drop your clothes. It’s time for some Floor Play!

Lie down and get comfortable. Spend some time slowly exploring each other.

Time to heat things up a bit. Blindfold your honey and straddle him, letting your legs rest along side of his body.  Begin by dripping warmed massage oil over his body, rubbing it in with long sensual strokes.  The key to sensual massage is to adore every inch of your partner’s body.  Enchant his senses by varying the intensity of your touch and being creative.  Use your fingertips, knuckles, and the heel of your hand, your elbows, and your forearms. 

Tease him with an ostrich feather from head to toe, and then pleasure him orally for a few moments.  Go back to massaging him.  Slip a piece of ice into your mouth and let it melt.  Delight his senses with your cold mouth on his hot body.

Rip off his blindfold (or not) and have your way with him. 

Repeat this process only with you wearing the blindfold.  Ask him to drip wine down your back then lick it off for an erotic effect.

Enjoy your 1 Night Stand with each other!

Thursday 13 - Date Night Ideas

 Fall is a busy time of the year, especially if you have kids. Unfortunately couples have to schedule time together. I asked the gal in my coffee club what they like to do with their honey when they have a Date Night. Here's some of their ideas. 

1. Go to a movie. The movie theater is a great opportunity to relax, hold hands, and unwind.

2. Go out to eat, sit and talk. Catch up with each other without any interruptions.

3. Have a picnic at a lake or in a park under the moonlight. Bring along an extra blanket to add a little romance.

4. Go for a walk in a different neighborhood.  My honey & I used to enjoy walking in a ritzy area of town and pick out our dream homes and cars.

5. Go to the mall, grab a cup of coffee and window shop.

6. Holding hands while walking in the park.

7. Visit a coffee shop you've never been to.

8. Attend a poetry reading or a special event at a local bookstore.

9. Cuddle in the back of a truck on a back road under a starry sky.

10. Laying by the fireplace with romantic music and candlelight.

11. Go out dancing.

12. Have a candlelight dinner, and dance in your own living room. 

13. Sit on the porch sipping wine, sharing a snack and talking.

There’s a direct link

between how often a man has sex and his life expectancy.

Keep the romance & stay healthy.

 

I'd like to have a chance to interview the world's oldest man.

Unfortunately he passed away on Sept. 15, 2013.

 

Salustiano Sanchez-Blazquez, a 112-year-old self-taught musician, coal miner and gin rummy aficionado from western New York, was 112. He was born in Spain, moved to Cuba then migrated to America in 1920. His wife, Pearl, passed away in 1988.

 

Thursday 13 - Things to do during football practice

I'm a football mom with three football players - an 8 year old youth player, an 8th grader and a senior who plays on a championship team. This week is conditioning but next week starts the heavy duty 2-A-Days. Son #1 drives himself but a bunch of mom's will attend these "awful but necessary" practices. We use this time to offer water, Gatorade and fruity ice pops to the boys as well as plan the team meals, spirit stuff we do in the locker room and simply gossip.

As an author, I sometimes use football practice an a quiet opportunity to edit. My friends often offer to read for me, especially the juicy scenes.  Here's a list for mom's every where of things to do while they are stuck at the field waiting for their boys.

1. Read.  (My personal favorite.)
2. Form a book club with other parents.
3. Make a grocery list.
4. Knit.
5. Hit the track and walk.
6. Take photos. (My second fav.)
7. Use to the time to have an uninterrupted phone conversation.
8. Give yourself a manicure.

Okay, now let's list a few "sexy" ideas.

9. Write a love letter to your honey.
10. Grab some lingerie catalogs and place an order.
11. Plan a romantic dinner for two.
12. Sext with your honey if he isn't with you.  If he is with you but out on the field watching, it might be rather fun.  LOL
13. Make a list of things you would like to try in the bedroom but been afraid to ask. I'm sure your honey will enjoy this "honey-do list".

GO RAMS!

 

Tasty Tuesday - Role Playing & Screaming Orgasms

In the heat of summer spice up the night with a little role playing. 

Your honey can be a bartender and you are... well... you!

You walk up to him (the bar) and say,

 "Hey there handsome. How about you give me a Screaming Orgasm?"

 

 

 

1 oz vodka
1 1/2 oz Bailey's® Irish cream
1/2 oz Kahlua® coffee liqueur

Pour first vodka, then Bailey's, then Kahlua into a cocktail glass over crushed ice. Stir.

Caution: use only high quality vodka. Cheap vodka can cause the Bailey's to curdle. Test your brand of vodka by mixing 1 Tsp each of vodka and Bailey's first.

How this scene plays out is strictly up to you.

Monday Mojo - Hot Weather Oooooo!

It's summer time and we are wearing lighter clothing and sometimes less of it to stay cool. Is it having all that skin exposed cranking up our desires?

Warm weather gives the opportunity for people to get out, mingle and socialize more. But the hot stickiness sometimes can be a turn off from touching one another.

However...

 The hotter the room, the fiercer the orgasm.

Alright Summer...

bring on the heat!

Sensual Saturday -wash away the dirt

Saturdays in the summer seem to be dedicated to work. Yard work, painting, cleaning, building...

 

When the day is over, jump into the shower to cleanse the dirt from the pores of bug spray covered skin.  But don't go in alone.

Invite your honey to join you for some sensual fun.

 

Take turns soaping and washing.

Remember how good it feels when someone else washes you hair?  OH, YEAH!

Friday - Fundamentals of Foreplay

 

 

1.    Fruit.  Sensual fruit such as strawberries, grapes and bananas may be easily found in your kitchen and can be a lot of fun to tease with.  Try dancing around your partner and feed him bits of fruit while teasing him with your body.

2.    Sensual food.  Whipping cream (see my 13 Things to Do with Whipping Cream).  Chocolate and other sensual foods.  (See my Sensual Food Post).

3.    A nice beverage.  Wine is always nice but a hot cup of coco or tea can be sensual in its own way especially in winter. Try a cup of spicy Masala Chai, or a tea containing yarrow, or better yet the aphrodisiac tea - Black Galingale.

4.    Candles.  Men have a tendency to prefer candles that smell like food – vanilla, orange spice, melon.  Women may prefer floral scents for romance.  Cluster candles on a reflective tray.  I like to mix the scents – Lavender, vanilla or orange spice, Hawaiian flower, white tea & ginger.  Visit a local candle shop and select candles together for a special evening.

5.    Sensual music.  What gets you in the mood?  Soft jazz for a romantic evening of slow love making?  Underground dance music for some creative adventuring?  Hard rock for some fierce pounding?  I suggest picking out the music in advance and being flexible to your mood at the time.  One night you might like soft jazz, the next you might choose something louder.

6.     Lingerie.  Silk boxers for him, g-string for her?  Silk slip?  Flannel pants and tight cotton tank?  Whatever you feel sexy in is what you should choose.  However, latest polls show men don’t like lots of lace and buttons/snaps.

7.    Sheets.  If you’re taking it to bed think of what feels good under you.  Don’t always think silk sheets are the best… flannel sheets are very cozy, especially in the northern regions. 

8.    Blankets.  If you visit my house, you’ll notice a variety of cozy, soft blankets on a blanket rack in the great room.  They aren’t just for making kids’ forts.  Ever try snuggling on a leather couch under a fleece blanket?  Try it!

9.    Lotions.  Keep ones that sensually inspire your mind and ones that can be licked off.

10. Feather.  Ever wonder why romance writers love writing plumes so much.  Heh, heh.  Next time you’re at the zoo, pick up an ostrich feather or visit you local sex shop for some top notch fun feathers.

11. Blindfold., silk scarves, hand cuffs.  Need I say anything more?

12. Love coupons.  Pick up a booklet of them or print them on the computer.  Hide a coupon in a special place for your honey to find.  A great teaser!

13. Romantic games.  There’s a wide variety out there.  A great way to add a little exploration into your love life.  Always remember, laughing in bed can be a wonderful foreplay move.

 

Thursday 13 - Date Ideas

I write for the 1 Night Stand series from Decadent Publishing. The characters don't have to worry too much about their first date, just the fact it's a blind date and sex is guaranteed. But let's hit reality for a moment. 

First dates can be incredibly tricky and nerve-wracking. It is therefore very important to establish in your own mind what you expect from the date beforehand. If possible, arrange to meet in a public place that you are familiar with, and do not forget to take your cell-phone, or a "back up plan" with a friend in case of an emergency.

If the first date goes well and you're onto the second and third dates the important thing to remember is to have fun and do not expect too much. After all, what is a first few dates are a fun way to get to know one another, and to explore the possibilities of developing a strong and lasting relationship?

Here are thirteen ideas for those dates in the beginning of a relationship.

 

 

1. Go out for dinner then a movie. Having dinner together lets you get to know them better while watching the movie together provides the perfect atmosphere to just get used to them without having to talk too much.

2. Go out to eat, sit and talk and give a small kiss goodnight.

3. Have a picnic at a lake under the moonlight.

4. Walk along the beach or in a park at night.  My honey & I used to enjoy walking in a ritzy area and pick out our dream homes and cars.

5. Have dinner, watch a movie and end the night by playing video games at a local arcade together.

6. Holding hands while walking in the park, getting to know each other.

7. Go out to eat, watch a movie, have a moonlight walk on the beach or through a park ending the evening with the perfect kiss.

8. Go out to dinner then spend time together at a coffee shop getting to know each other.

9. Getting to know each other in the back of a truck on a back road under a starry sky.

10. Laying by the fireplace with romantic music and candlelight getting to know each other.

11. Go out dancing together.

12. Visit an amusement park or county fair.

13. Sit on the porch sipping wine, sharing a snack and talking.

Things that make you go, "Hmmm...."

During sexual intercourse, in addition to the genitals and breasts, the inner nose also swells.

HOWEVER,

In a 2008 study published in The Journal of Medical Hypotheses, experts state that men may overcome a blocked nose by having an orgasm. Apparently, an orgasm stimulates the adrenergic receptors in the nasal passage to get rid of that lousy blockage naturally.

It can also help combat asthma and hay fever.

 

 

Now you know, so enjoy your week!

• 2 1/2 (1 ounce) squares unsweetened chocolate
• 1/2 cup butter

• 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

1.     Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). In the microwave or over a double boiler, melt unsweetened chocolate and butter together, stirring occasionally until smooth. Sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt; set aside.

Friday's Fetish Tip

Use handcuffs specifically designed for the bedroom.

 

These handcuffs usually don't require a key and can easily be gotten out of. Check local adult stores or online. Steel shackles are initially created not for your bdsm acts, but for restricting malignant prisoners. Cuffs can result in skin injury or stop blood flow if used wrong.

• At all times use cuffs that have double lock feature.
• Evade cheap handcuffs, they can jam or become too tight.

  

Always practice safe sex.

 

 

 

Thrusday Thirteen - 13 Ways to Use Whipping Cream

 

Okay… I’m writing this due to demand. Come on folks, give me a break. This list was hard to put together. After a couple ideas and a few cans, I kept getting too distracted to continue. Sheesh!

 

1.       Of course… top off some yummy chocolate pudding, or hot apple pie, or ice cream. Wait a minute. Come on now… let’s add some spice to it!

2.       Dip strawberries into it and feed them to your special someone. Swirl the whipping cream upon the lips and lick off together.

3. Make a whipping cream bikini or matching whipping cream undies and lick them off each other.

Ali Larter's famous whipped cream bikini scene

4.       Place cut up banana pieces, strawberries, pop rocks candy onto naked belly (or any body part of your choosing) add chocolate syrup then top with whipping cream. Allow your dear honey bunny to lick it off. If you’re daring, try this and add a scoop of ice cream. Wowza!

5.       “Hershey's syrup, whipped cream, and a Catwoman mask.” – Men’s Health magazine. Okay…? Sorry, I can’t do the Catwoman mask thing.

 

6. Now this old album cover gives me a few ideas I simply can’t express in words.

What’s an album? If you don’t know… you shouldn’t be reading this post.

 

7.       Oh, you need the obvious idea? Then simply cover your partner’s hottest spots. You have to lick the cream away to get to the “goodies”. Duh.

8.       Need a little warmth while you play with all this whipping cream? Try this recipe:  1 cup heavy cream, whipped, add 1 ounce orange liqueur such as Grand Marnier, and whip together. Ladies - let your honey put this mixture wherever you might want him to pay a lot of attention to, cut he’ll probably be there awhile.

9.       Add some strawberry syrup to the whipping cream then put it in the freeze for a bit before placing dollops onto nipples. The flavor and the cold enhances the … uh… pleasure.

10.   Run a line of whipping cream along the backbone of your partner then slowly… I mean slowly lick it off. Don’t ever rush licking. A burp or gas of any kind can be rather embarrassing in a moment of passion. 

11.   Whipping cream, blindfold, handcuffs, and pineapple flavored edible warming oil. Need I say more?

12.   Arm yourselves with cans of whipping cream; be sure to be naked, commence whipping cream war. Note: shower afterwards may be just as much fun as the war.

13.    “Have your guy lie back comfortably on the bed; spray whipped cream from his naval to his upper thighs. Begin slowly licking it off the body areas above and below his package. After each lick, kiss his mouth with your lips covered in whipped cream, bring your mouth back below his belt. Slowly lick all the whipped cream off his body — except the cream directly covering his penis and testicles. Not until he’s aching should you finally indulge there.” – Cosmopolitan magazine. (Recommended by Laura Berman, PhD, sex therapist and creator of the DVD series Dr. Berman Can Help)

 

OHHHHHH…. HONEY….. I HAVE WHIPPING CREAM……

 

Sultry Saturday Night Floor Play

So it’s nice quiet night and it’s just the two of you; time to have a cheap date night. Spring time still has cold nights perfect for a fire in the fireplace.

Hmmm…the room is lit by firelight and candles.  Fluffy pillows are tossed onto the floor.  Spread a soft blanket or two next to the pillows.  Hmm…sounds nice doesn’t it?  Romantic lighting, sensual fabrics, you just need skin to skin contact and you’ll be all set for a deeply intimate encounter.

Pour a glass of wine and drop your clothes. It’s time for some Floor Play!

Lie down and get comfortable.  Blindfold your honey and straddle him, letting your legs rest along side of his body.  Begin by dripping warmed massage oil over his body, rubbing it in with long sensual strokes.  The key to sensual massage is to adore every inch of your partner’s body.  Enchant his senses by varying the intensity of your touch and being creative.  Use your fingertips, knuckles, and the heel of your hand, your elbows, and your forearms. 

Tease him with an ostrich feather from head to toe, and then pleasure him orally for a few moments.  Go back to massaging him.  Slip a piece of ice into your mouth and let it melt.  Delight his senses with your cold mouth on his hot body.

Rip off his blindfold (or not) and have your way with him. 

Repeat this process only with you wearing the blindfold.  Ask him to drip wine down your back then lick it off for an erotic effect.

Enjoy your night with each other!

Tuesday Temptations - Chocolate & Wine

I love chocolate (the darker, the better).

I love cherries and I love wine.

 

 On a whim, I bought a bottle of Cocobon Wine. I liked the description on the lable.

Experience Cocobon, a harmonious blend that tantalizes the senses and transports you along a spell-binding journey to Nirvana. Become immersed in deep crimson tones that deliver decadent aroma and flavor, from dark cherry to rich vanilla, mocha and cocoa.

 

 

Oh the lable wasn't kidding!  This beverage is an orgasm for the tounge.

 

When inhaling the arroma, the scent was sharp but sublte with only the faintest hint of berries.  The smell carries dark raspberries with vanilla and the flavor is even better. At first you taste a rich full flavor of red fruits. The soft, mild tannins were completely overpowered by the luscious flavors of rich vanilla and dark chocolate. This powerful combination then melted into a blueberry finish with just a hint of bite to help the flavor linger on in the mouth. Even after you swallow, the flavors continue to dance on the back of your tongue.

I highly recomend to enjoy this drink slowly for the wonderful experience! 

 

Perhaps the wine is so appealing because it was created by a lady winemaker Georgetta Dane.

 

It takes a woman to know what a woman really wants in a wine!

 

She continues her journey at Cocobon, where she harnesses the power of all her senses and creates a Zen-like balance at the intersection of art, science, and soul.

 



Sensual Saturday - History of Kissing

 

Humans have a long history of kissing. Europeans kiss both cheeks. Parents kiss their child's cheek. The Intuit rub noses. The French kiss by... well… you know. Kissing, both casual and romantic, is a common practice, but we really don't know where or how it began.

There are several different theories as to how kissing all began:

       * In ancient times, a mother would chew up food and pass it directly to the mouth of her baby. What started as a sign of affection between mother and child most likely spread to romantic relationships. However, some cultures had the same practice of passing food to their children, but knew nothing about kissing.

       * Some believed that our souls lived in our breath and that kissing brings your soul together, thus combining you together for eternity. This is a romantic theory, but not really one that can be proven true.

       * Kissing gets you close enough to your partner to smell their scent, giving you knowledge of the person. Animals practice a similar behavior by rubbing against each other.

 

The theories are just that though. There is no proof or record of where and how kissing originally began. We do know that Europeans were kissing during the Greek and Roman times. It also appears that some form of kissing may have started in India as there are texts from around 1500 B.C. that describe the custom of rubbing noses together, now commonly referred to as 'Eskimo Kissing'.

While we don't know for sure when or where kissing first began, the reference to 'Eskimo Kissing' supports the theory that kissing gets you close to your partner in order to pick up on their scent. When you inhale your partner's scent, you subconsciously learn a lot about the other person by their smell. As we previously noted, most animals engage in a similar behavior.

It seems then that the modern romantic kiss most likely evolved as a way of unconsciously testing the genetic fitness of a potential mate. While this may be the underlying reason as to why we began kissing, it's not really the main reason as to why we continue to practice it. The reason is simple: it feels good, it evokes feelings of passion, and it's a physical connection between us and our partners.

However the kiss began, we're thankful. :)
