The sheepskin is *why* they all want my chair

So I thought!

I've heard that basil's good (aromatherapy-wise) for keepng your mind alert and working nicely... Crushed fresh or basil oil or perhaps some really nice potato and basil bread and butter as a helpful snack while you work...

you almost made me miss w*rk, robyn

Wouldn't taking the time out to go bake bread be a bit counterproductive?

yes. you should ask Yarreau

How did I do that, pierce?

a posting mentioning both w*rk and delicious food - never thought i'd live to see that

I can make everything bar sex work with food if I want to. Food should only ever touch the skin that inside the mouth or the finger tips.

it's horrible.

other people seem to have other ideas

but i'm with you on this once. sex can be messy enough as it is

Yup, it's fine as it is. Anything else is just

yeah, plus i can't have whipped cream anyway. too much cholesterol

marachino cherries or not

In a liquer chocolate yes. Out of a belly button, no.

I was watching come dine with me and a guy got his mate to lie down on the dinner table so he could serve Sushi on him.



It was really rather grim.

I know it's sort of traditional (well, a half-naked man with a hairy belly button isn't quite how it's done in the best restaurants afaik) but still, even off a beautiful woman... OI! AMATEUR CHEF! NO!

As does Baileys.

Have you ever warmed baileys up gently in a pan and melted some grated dark choc into it.

I haven't, it just occurred to me and I thought it'd be ace...

this is as dark as it comes and i find that the moderated amount of chilli it contains warms up the mouth gently thus freeing every bit of taste of

i prefer my bailey's cold, actually the taste is a bit too girlie'ish for me

actually i think i'll leave it for my house guest and try some of the ukrainian vodka she brought me instead

Smirnoff Norsk and Tonic. It actually looks like and tastes wonderful. Subtly fruity but very dry in the same way cranberry is dry. Nowhere near as flavoured though. It's fab!

Or Tia Maria and Orange Juice. Around 2/3 TM to 1/3 OJ or 1/2 n 1/2, pour to taste, although a double TM to a britvic OJ (the wee mixer bottles we get here) are just about right. Mix until it looks like mud and sip...

It's a little sweet and looks decidedly worrying but tastes JUST like terry's chocolate orange with a touch of alcohol heat.

i'll just have a terry's chocolate orange with a touch of alcohol then
