It's Not Nice to Play with Anna Wintour



I love Anna Wintour. She is always so put together and one of the best dressed women around. You never see her not put together or a hair out of place. And she is rarely seen without her sunglasses. The woman is also the most powerful person in the fashion industry. A fashion show doesn't start till she arrives, she will make or break a designers career, and will influence the next fashion trend. She was also the main inspiration for the movie The Devil Wears Prada. Here is Anna Wintour in a rare interview with Morey Shaffer on 60 Minutes. Plus it has not only Ms.Wintour, but my favorite designer John Gallino. Do you think it is like walking on egg shells around the offices of Vogue? A huge hat tip to drag diva Lady Bunny.

Real Desperate Housewives of New Jersey



Now if the Mistress lived in a household with the Boy-Toy and Kailyn with only one television set, I'd be screwed! Between the both of them they would have reality shows on 24/7. I don't watch too many of those shows but somehow I got hooked on The Real Housewives of New Jersey. After seeing the first show I was hooked. And what a train wreck it looks like it will be. I didn't watch the housewives of Orange County or Atlanta, but I did watch the New York seasons, which were pretty good so I thought what the heck. I'm not sure what I think, except I like Caroline the best.


She is the only reason I'll probably watch. Her family is pretty entertaining and there will be some laughs there. She seems like the coolest mom and she also seems like a pretty hip mom. And lets be honest, I'm really watching to see her very handsome son Albie!


Her sister Dina seems to me like a real center of attention/pain in the ass.


She doesn't seem to be the kind of mom to pack a luncheon loaf sandwich for the kid to take to school. Rumors are flying her husband doesn't want anything to do with the show, and there is also speculation he is not that "into her"!?! WTF. Next up is Theresa.



Is the Mistress the only one to think she looks like she used to be a man? Maybe she just needs a little electrolysis done on the upper lip. And she is currently building a new home and is furnishing the place. Does she put any thought in to the furnishings, or pick things that mean something to her, or does she just pick things out at random to fill the house to just have things? And what was with paying the $123,000 in cash for the stuff? Lets see, her husband is in construction and they live in Jersey. Hmmmm. Something smells fishy. I don't think I would cross them. You may end up with a pair of Jersey concrete shoes. Jacqueline is the next one.


To tell you the truth, Jacqueline seems like the low key of all of them. I don't even remember her much from the first two shows except that she is the sister-in-law of one of them and that she wears her clothes too tight. It's like squeezing 10 pounds of luncheon loaf in a 5 pound baggie! And finally there is Danielle.


This one seems like she is going to have a lot a baggage come along with her. And she also seems like she could be the ho of the group. But I will say she has an incredible body for her age! The season looks like it will be filled with all kinds of drama and good old cat fights. I already can't wait for the fight where the table flips over from Theresa getting into it with Caroline. This show looks like it could be right out of Jackie Collins's book Lady Boss. Are any of you watching? What's your opinion?

Grande Dame of the Week

Chicago's diva of sugar and spice- Jade!


If you're living in Chicago then you're probably aware of the gorgeous Jade! And she may look familiar to some as being one of the lovelies from RuPaul's Drag Race, being a very talented contender. Even thought she didn't win we haven't seen the last of her I'm sure. Jade has been a female impersonator through many clubs in Chicago and Detroit. Jade began in only 2003 and has been growing and growing her talent as a performer. Jade is a real beauty and is also a hell of a dancer! Jade is one kind hearted person and tell everyone to follow their dreams to the very end. This spicy bombshell can be seen at Sangria every Thursday in Chicago.

Weekends Fly By,Have You Noticed

Is it me or do the weekends fly by? I really do enjoy my job, but I wish just once the week would fly by and the weekend drag nice and slowly. We all had a very nice weekend here. The weather was perfect with a little rain on Saturday. And we got our grocery and market trips out of the way and are we ever stocked up now! The berry season is coming in full season soon, and some of the different berries I got over the weekend are going to make a wonderful lunch or two for the week. I got some delish blueberries, strawberries , and blackberries and mixed them all together. I also got some wonderful looking tomatoes and some eggplant for our dinner Sunday night. Then their was a visit to the Mutter Museum. The Mutter Museum which is a part of the College of Physicians of Philadelphia, is interesting if nothing else. The Mutter was started by Thomas Mutter in 1858 when he donated his collection of unique materials to the college and it grew from there. The collection features all kinds of medical tools, records, fluid-preserved specimens, skeletal specimens, medicals instruments, and specimens with medical conditions. The Mutter was originally intended to give medical students the chance to see and study the effects of rare conditions. Today, it still serves that purpose, and fascinates the general public. But if you are weak in the stomach this isn't for you. There is also a 5 foot long human colon, preserved human fetuses, and a part of the brain of President Garfield's assassin Charles Guiteau. All I'll say is it is interesting but totally gross!!!













Then there was also the gay pride celebration, New Hope Celebrates this weekend in New Hope which ran Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Good times! Sunday was a late morning wake up as the Mistress loves to lounge about in the boudoir till Lord knows what time. Sunday we also continued a little more training with Buster Bowlfig Borghese. And he, I have to say being four weeks in, has been the perfect gentlemen. I think his separation anxiety is just about nixed. The day ended with a bottle of Pinot Grigio and the Grilled Egg planet with tomato prepared for dinner.



At the end of the night I and Buster were both wiped out and ready for bed!!!
