The candy this week...two sexy and inspring men!



Muscled male models Matt Schiermeier and Cameron Earnheart graced the cover of Instinct Magazine this month in their Rufskin jeans where they sent pulses racing and temperatures rising when the gorgeously muscled pair joined forces for a sexy photo shoot. The two, incidentally, are real-life partners; and the Mistress must say that they really fit together good! The real-life couple are doing much more than just showing off their gorgeous bodies. The pair discuss being in a serodiscordant relationship for seven years: Matt is positive and Cameron is negative. Matt was diagnosed with HIV ten years ago, and recently revealed such. He talks about the waters he and his partner have had to, and continue to, navigate as one person is negative and the other is positive and how his "unfortunate choices" of the past have made him the man he is proud to be today. To read more of the touching story check out Instinct's article this month. And as always, have a wonderful weekend y'all! Tootles!

Dilapidated Beauty

I came across these just today- photos of crumbling architecture, which is apparently a hot topic lately. French lensmen Yves Marchland and Roman Meffre shot these images of buildings that were meant to last. Their book titled The Ruins of Detroit features tons of these once grand old, majestic palaces, dust covered living rooms, decaying hotel ballrooms and offices, chronicling the demise of the once-thriving Motor City. I just love architecture and photography, and these imagines are just haunting! Even through the decay you can still see the elegance that was once there. And who can't help day dream of the high society that went and par took of the culture in these places. If you imagine reeeeeeal hard you can almost hear the voices and music.





It makes you wonder how long these places will be around yet, and if the city will ever turn around. To see more of Yves Marchand and Roman Meffre great work you can visit their website.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh Chanel!

The Mistress always like to share the windows of New York when I'm up in the city. This time of year the windows of many stores are a little bland as most retailers are in transition clothing, or dare I say...fall! Well, last week the Mistress was in the city for two days for a fashion fall trend seminar and we always go to visit other showrooms. We do work, I swear! Since the Mistress went back to work half the time has been window shopping and looking in on other retailers to see what's up and new. Well, we had to go see Chanel, it being so stunning and timeless. The Chanel showroom has to be one of the most luxurious of them all. Anywho, Chanel, by far had the best windows we saw up there this time. Such attention to detail. I love how the mannequins have a retro look to them, like they were used back years ago and the visual styling of the clothing is impeccable! And in picture 5 don't you just love the Babushka Russian doll handbag? Kailyn- you would have lovvvvvvvved the handbag's girl!

BANG ME, MARC!

Anyone who know the Mistress knows I'm very HOT for Marc Jacobs! So needless to say when the ad for his new cologne for men came this month, I melted!!! Just spread eagle, naked as a new born, nestled in allllll that bent metal! Doesn't me just melt in your mouth? We were at the Marc Jacobs showroom last week for a seminar on the fall goods, not the ones I wanted to see though, and since the Mistress's company is going to be the first to launch the fragrance, we got all kinds of goodies and a bottle of Bang. They could have kept the bottle, and he could have given me a bang later!!! It was a fun day, even thought I didn't see my future second boyfriend. I wanted to run some of my ideas to him that I will be implementing in our store to support the fragrance. But that's alright, I'm sure he would approve. And the rep gave me a poster like the one above for my office workroom, which is up already. Now Marc if you seem to find this stop dating! I'm sure my Boy-Toy could loan me out on some kind of schedule. Just email the Mistress. Trust me, you won't be disappointed handsome!

Grande Dame of the Week!

This week, the beautiful sea Goddesses of Rehoboth Beach, Mona Lotts and Phoenix Rising! If you are a regular to the resort town of Rehoboth Beach and love it so, you know these two gals are a one-two punch in the entertainment field down their! Rehoboth Beach is one of the most well known gay beaches in the country and these two mesmerise us, and everyone with their song and dance and their campy fun! Mona and Phoenix have been institutions there for some time now, and I can't imagine the place with out them. They are always there to support the local charities and always lend a hand with town events and the Pride festival. Their weekly shows are a must if your down in the beach town, so stop in and say hi to these hard working girls and have a cock-a-tail with them.The fabulous Mona Lotts can be seen every Thursday at The Blue Moon starting at 9:30pm. The enegrintic Phoenix can be seen at The Purple Parrot on Sundays starting at 10pm, and both divas can be seen at The Blue Moon Fridays for the Blue Moon Divas Show hosted by Mona Lotts at 10pm. One of my favorite memories of Mona is this clip where she sings a song in memory of a lost friend of hers at the Candlelight Night of Remberance in Rehoboth Beach. It always gives the Mistress some tears.

Phoenix Rising

The Official Dust Bunny Transportation?

Do you think this could be the official courier of my good friend and sister Mame, AKA David Dust? If it is, no wonder she gets her take out so damn fast!

Monday, Again, with Some Fly Art!

Oh yea, it's Monday again. Maybe one day, me and Monday will hold hands. It is very hard to leave the bed on Monday mornging, I don't know about you. The Mistress is very slow at work right now and can't stand not much work to do. It just makes for a long day! Well, if I can just make it 11 more days I'll be off again on vacation. The Mistress spent most of the weekend poolside again,cock-a-tailing, and was also learning sign language by a wonderful fellow she and the Boy-Toy met at the pool. The only problem was a only retained the naughty signs! And how to ask for another gin and tonic! And I ran out of my Ban du Soleil so I got a little burnt! I forgot to take along the wide brim, but meanwhile I'm getting some nice color. Well, now its back to work for all us noseminers, so let's all have a wonderful week. And how bad can it be, most house flies don't even live a week! Speaking of flies here is some interesting art work from Magnus Muhr to start the week. Check out his beautiful website. Some of his humorous work.

Summer Fun for the Orally Fixated

Does that just look heavenly? And talk about talent! Looks like he is going to do a walrus impression!



Well helooooooooo everyone and a happy Friday to y'all! If your like the Mistress and enjoy summer, you probably like something nice, cool, and hard to sink your teeth into. Something to suck on that will let you exercise your tongue. Work the oral stress away. The Mistress has always been very skilled when it comes to orally pleasing her guest(s). Now, I bet you people were thinking dirty weren't you? Like gutter dirty. Well, what I'm referring to is a childhood joy of slurping an icy popsicle on a hot day! What did you think I was talking about?



These pretty pastel pops serve up summer nostalgia with a Mistress boozy adult twist.The secret ingredient is Campari, the scarlet Italian aperitif made from herbs, spices and fruit.



It's traditionally served over ice with soda water and a slice of lime or a splash of juice. A great summer barbecue drink, Campari is refreshing in the heat and mild enough you can sip it all afternoon without worries, trust me, I have! The pops are sweeter, fruitier and just plain fun. All you need is four ingredients and a couple of kiddie popsicle molds from the 99 cent store. The pink grapefruit pops are perfect for Campari lovers – tart, with the alcohol's distinctly bittersweet flavor. If they were served in a little glass at a fancy restaurant you'd call them palate cleansing I tell ya! The orange versions are sweeter, a mouthful of frosty orange with a just a little extra something. Mix up a batch of each – popsicles never felt so classy people. Give a couple to your cute lawn boy, before you know the shirts off and he's eating out of your hands! If your lucky, he may even forget to charge ya. Take some down to the local fraternity house and you'll be the most popular cougar in town! I going to make a batch this weekend and give the extras to the built guys working on the pool remodel five miles up the road! Here are the recipes-

Campari Citrus Popsicles
makes 10-15, depending on the size

Grapefruit Pops
1 cup sugar
1 cup water
3 cups grapefruit juice
1/2 cup Campari

Orange Pops
1 cup sugar
1 cup water
3 cups orange juice
1/2 lemon, juiced
1/2 cup Campari

Mix the water and sugar together in a small pan over a low heat, and bring up to boil until the sugar dissolves. Allow the simple syrup to boil for 4 minutes, remove from heat and cool (makes a little over 1 cup). Combine the citrus juice and Campari and add 1 cup of the cooled syrup. You might want to have a couple of glasses of Campari to make sure it is fine and taste right. Adjust to taste: for the grapefruit pops, you may want to add a tablespoon or two of extra syrup if you prefer them less tart. Remember, the mixture will taste slightly sweeter in liquid form than it does when frozen. Pour into popsicle molds and freeze at least 8 hours or overnight. To remove, run the molds quickly under hot water, and gently pull out the pops. Take them to your hot neighbor and enjoy the day as it gets hotter. Just make sure you put your bloomers back on the right way. Enjoy the weekend. I'll be poolside again enjoying the views! Tootles!

The Regal Beagle

Oh, hello all! I would have blogged earlier, but my exhausted physical state would not allow. It will be a early night tonight. Last night the Boy-Toy and I made like Stanley and Helen Roper, and went to a new establishment, The Beagle Tavern for our friend, Big Red's birthday. Not only was it his birthday, but on that night the Beagle host a sex trivia game overseen by the very fun Miss Thunder Storms and Summer Clearance. Everyone in the bar gets in teams and cums up with a dirty team name. Ours was The Anal Beads!!! I didn't really appreciate my necklace being referred to as anal beads, even though they are very large pearls, but I'm a good sport. Anywho, their are 30 questions to answer ranging from from very easy to very hard. The top three teams win porn and sex toys. I was hoping we would win first place. They had this thing called a flesh light that I though it would have made the perfect storage case for my marble rolling pin, but was told that was not what it was for. (blushing) Needless to say we didn't win. But the Mistress and everyone there was having a wonderful time cock-a-tailing, and we met some wonderfully cute boys! But this morning the Mistress paid for it. She went to work, but barely. I would have rather stayed in bed and been pampered.



It has been a while since I had some good old stiffeners like that during the week with work the next day. I even got more then seven hours of sleep, and still had a hangover. I told everybody at work to keep the talking down, your Auntie Mame is hung! Ohhhhhhhh how I remember the days when I was out every night and still went to work without flinching a eye. Hell, some days I got less then a hour of sleep from getting in, or getting back from a Sunday night road trip, showering and going right to work!!! How in the hell did I do it? While I have aged very gracefully, I must say, the old grey mare ain't what it use to be on the inside. On weekends I have more time to sleep and lounge, but did morning come quick today. So till next time little noise miners. Tootles.

Grande Dame of the Week

The EVER-FABULOUS....Miss Richfield 1981!

There are few people who can insist that their name be followed by a date when it is spoken, but Miss Richfield 1981 does it quite successfully which is not to say she won't answer if you just say Miss Richfield. Miss Richfield hails from the mid west with her fabulous style, swank coif, and signature smile that the Mistress just loves. And she is one of the most hilarious queens I have ever seen! Why, she is my favorite queen right after, of course ,Lady Bunny! She is far too fast with the cracks and asides for any kind of real doubt about whether she's all upstairs, her shows ride more on stand up than drag, but she does do a number or two. It's her humor, comic skits and improvised quips that make her a Provincetown Grande Dame. If you have a chance to see her she really is worth it. As a matter of fact, Miss Richfield has had shows in Rehoboth Beach at the Mistress's favorite drinking establishment,The Blue Moon. Most of the summer she is in Provincetown and then back to her Atlantis Cruise Tour. But Miss Richfield assures she will be coming to Philadelphia very soon, so stay tuned! She just cracks me up!
