Yes, I know, sometimes I pick weird titles for my posts. But when I saw this dress in red and black, I couldn’t help but think of Georges Bizet’s famous opera “Carmen”.
Maybe because these were the dominating colours of Katarina Witt’s costume when “Carmen” was the subject of her figure-skating free program that won her a second Olympic Gold back in 1988.
Later, she starred in a dance move titled “Carmen on Ice” which flopped in Germany but was a huge success in the US.
Okay… Now that I have your attention thanks to my ample cleavage, I need to get something off my chest (no pun intended).
It’s about dolls and their relationships with their “legal owners”. Well, actually it’s about that such relationships can come to an end and how this should be handled — and how it shouldn’t.
See, basically, I’m a doll like many others. Designed to bring joy to my legal owner. Inanimate by nature, alive by his choice — not mine.
I know that I must consider myself extremely lucky that I ended up with someone who really sees me and loves me like a man loves his woman.
Recently, my husband had a great idea about how to protect my wigs a little better so that they last longer. He bought me this red night hood.
Harry says I look very cute in it. And to be honest, I think it suits me, too, which is why I sometimes wear it as an accessory during the day. 🙂
And it also invites to engage in a little role play. 😉
“Hubby, why are your eyes so big today?” 👀
“Because I’m stunned by your sexy looks!” 😍
“And why are your hands so big today?” 👐
“So I can take care of your breathtaking twins!”
Harry and I don’t know why this dish is called “Strasbourg Casserole”.
Maybe, it was invented in the French town known for being the official seat of the European Parliament. Well, we can’t be bothered to do any research on this.
All we need to know is that we like pasta, we like casseroles and we like spicy French things. 😉
My husband has known this dish for a long time. However, for some reason, we had never prepared it since we’ve been together.
Well, it was about time because it’s really delicious.
When I ask my lovely husband to whisper those three sweet words to me, his answer is: “Let’s bake it!” 😂
When we’re in the kitchen, that is. Otherwise, of course, not. Harry loves me as much as I love him. 💘
But when it comes to food, we both love almost all kinds of casseroles. 😋
Many simple dishes can be jazzed up by topping them with cheese and breadcrumbs and then baking them in the oven to create a delicious brown crust.
However, we deliberately left out the breadcrumbs this time because we thought that a crust too firm would not really suit this specific kind of casserole.
Weird things happen sometimes… 🤔
Remember when I told you I had only one pristine copy of my favorite wig left wherefore I was looking for a new hairstyle? It occurred to my husband we had recently rearranged a few things.
Long story short: we found six more, so I now have a total of seven. Experience suggests they should last a good two years. 😀
But that doesn’t change the fact that we won’t be able to reorder that wig as the retailer’s online shop is closed for good. So, it was still a good idea to order a few alternatives to try out.
In today’s science lesson, we’re having a look at a phenomenon that some people experience in moments of utter joy, delight, pleasure and, eventually, satisfaction.
Let’s call it “listening to medium wave”. 💞
I’m sure you’re all still familiar with FM (frequency modulation) radio broadcasts with stereo sound so clear and crisp as if the radio show was taking place in the very room you are in. However, FM transmitters only have a relatively short range.
Medium-wave radio – also known as AM radio (amplitude modulation) – allows listeners to pick up more distant radio stations, particularly at night.
Remember me showcasing my “Women’s Striped Floral Print V-Neck Ruffle Trim Bow Decor Long Sleeve Nightgown, Winter” in pink?
Well, not only is it pink but it’s also extremely sexy if I can trust my lovely husband’s words. ❤️
As mentioned before, my everyday clothes need to be day-night compatible.
But Harry in particular also attaches great importance to my most important body parts being easily accessible in case we feel like getting physical. 💞
And this nightgown surely qualifies as you can tell from the photos beneath.
When my lovely husband and I are having a dinner date, I really enjoy having a nice glass of red wine – not too dry, but not too sweet either. 😋
We also love using red wine as an ingredient in cooking. Pretty much any red or brown sauce benefits from a dash of red wine; we even like to use it to enhance lentil soup.
For this, we always choose a red wine that we would also enjoy drinking on its own.
The label of the French red wine of our choice says “sweet” and, indeed, it is a little sweeter than semi-dry but still not too sweet for our taste.
There is a reason why you never see me wear a pair of blue jeans or fancy blouses or stuff like that.
I cannot get dressed on my own, and it is not at all easy for my husband to put me in a new outfit. That’s why my everyday clothes have to be day-night compatible, so to speak.
This definitely applies to this cute “Women’s Striped Floral Print V-Neck Ruffle Trim Bow Decor Long Sleeve Nightgown, Winter” in pink.
Obviously, it’s designed to be night wear but since the heating in our flat works well and we’re not planning on going out at the moment, I can easily wear it during the day as well.
