Well after a one day work week....yes dear ones.....looks like my work life is back to normal again, the Mistress is grossly behind in blog reading. But today I'm relaxing after a nice long snooze and a breakfast with homemade Stollen and coffee. Here are a few snaps taken during the holiday this week seen around . Its been a more relaxing week than a normal season for me....and I am not complaining.
City Hall Philadelphia
Buster and Lilith. "We didn't do it we swear"
Farms Market. Picked up my pork roast and sauerkraut for New Years Day.
For a Christmas gift, the Mother got a me a gift....a day at the Spa at Hotel Hershey. The day was spent on the 23rd being pampered... getting a facial, massage, deep body exfoliate and cocoa wrap and a mani/pedi! I didn't know whether to relax or lick myself. The place is so relaxing and elegant.
In between treatments they serve you hot drinking chocolate....Hershey style!
Followed by martinis at the end of the day. Mine was a expresso chocolate martini.
One night while coming home from New Hope, I saw a dog wondering all over the back roads. I pulled over in fear someone may hit him. He ran right to me and he jump in the car. Once I got to a location to pull into, I saw his name was Boone on his collar, so I called his very happy owners. They came to pick him up. A happy ending.
Independence Hall on a cold day.
Beautiful snap of City Hall through the lit trees.
Philadelphia Art Museum rotunda.
Meanwhile at work Friday.....no pictures...PLEASE!
One of the stores better clients.
Dinner a few weeks ago in beautiful Lahaska
It was a good season. To me it's not what's under the tree for Christmas, but who's around the tree.
I've never had a facial or a chocolate martini...but, gawd knows, I need both! And I'd like some pork roast with sauerkraut.
ReplyDeleteLuv the doggies and the barnyard critters!
I will have plenty of all the above...Take that as you may and stop in!!!!
DeleteAfter those pictures, I'm certainly glad you didn't say you were having lamb!
ReplyDeleteFrom the looks on Buster's and Lilith's faces, they did something and you just don't know what it is yet!
As for the relaxing or licking, I'd go with the licking if I was flexible enough. Relax after :)
we're sure they did something...but we couldn't never find anything. hmmmmmmm Yes I should have just licked myself and been done with it. But my spa technician was a cutie.
Deletegawd, mistress, that sounds divine! get the houseboyz to lick you. and YAYZ for finding a lost puppy!
ReplyDeleteHNY 2018 to you and ms. moorecock and the houseboyz!
Hell, I can lick myself m'deaar!
DeleteI loved this post Mistress. And I agree with Deedles...I don't know what the dogs did, but those faces say different. A precious photo.
ReplyDeleteThose Philadelphia pictures are truly stunning. The one at the museum I love.
ReplyDeleteAnd who doesn't love animal pictures especially if Buster is included. And thanks for Boone you came along.
The spa??????? OMG!!!
You have a cool ass mom!!!! Does she want to adopt???
ReplyDeleteGreat collection of photos Mistress, but lick yourself...I thought you gave up your old party tricks?
If it's a party trick I'm thinking.....he should be in movies!
DeleteOur local bakery, Mullberry Street, makes such a delicious Stollen at Christmas! Love it; and am jealous of the spa day!
ReplyDeleteHappy that dog got home safe.
ReplyDeleteLove that mannequin!
That mannequin picture and caption cracked me up too.
DeleteWhat nice pictures Mistress! And your closing line is certainly the reason for the season....not that I would pass up a spa visit though. Cocoa wrap!!! I'd lick myself too!
ReplyDeleteBUT THOSE DOGS FACES!!!!! Philadelphia sure is pretty. I plan to come this summer if someone could show me around. I watch the Mummers Parade every year now on tv since I saw your posts on them.
ReplyDeleteHeavenly post Mistress! You ad me at cute dogs all the way around. Our own Winston is glad Boone got home safe. And of course the spa.....who wouldn't love to be covered and wrapped in cocoa??????
ReplyDeleteYour pictures are a joy...the statue of Artemis is glorious.
Extra xoxoxox for rescuing the doggy!
ReplyDeleteHave a warm and cozy New Year!
A warming post with beautiful eye candy. I love the architecture pictures... and Buster. Those faces....what could they have done??? Next time your out the spa. I'd gladly lick you clean!!!!!!! That drinking cholate looks decadent honey.
ReplyDeleteIt was decadent!!!!!
DeleteAll these breathtaking pictures and not one sexy undies picture???
ReplyDeleteJudging from the shot at Independence Hall a hot drinking chocolate would probably have been nice. And a cocoa covered body wrap could be lots of fun. Did they even cover the Mr. Goodbar???
ReplyDeleteNo that was covered slightly...but Colin, my spa technician did bump the jumblies....multiple times. We should have married.
DeleteThank you, Maddie, for sharing these fantastic fotos. The architecture is stunning! So regal and exquisite. I hope Nicholas Cage and company returned Ben Franklin's spectacles they borrowed from Independence Hall to find that National Treasure. I luv that festive, decked out mill!
ReplyDeleteI love art and appreciate these amazing captures. But I worry about that nude archer. I appreciate beautiful nekkid ladies, but I worry that she's underdressed, and all that exposure could lead to frostbite on the jewels. The Xmas tree is fabulous and glamorous. Your last line about how it's the people around the Xmas tree that matter has me picturing you Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree.
Congratulations on a well deserved and amazing spa/chocolate day. The place and the drinks look spectacular! I hope you've got some hot chocolate to go with your tasty stollen and coffee.
The fotos of the dogs are fun, hilarious, and charming. And that little lamb looks so delicious! And cute and fuzzy. Hello, Lamb Chop! Do you like yogurt and mint sauce? How about chimichurri?
The most heartwarming vignette was you rescuing that poor lost dog, and it was wonderful that you made sure Boone got to go home safely with his loves ones. You are a Saint! And you've made it on to Santa's Nice List. However, I fear the Infomaniac NYE party may knock you back over to the Naughty List...
Happy New Year!!! Cheers!!!
The Infomaniac NYE party ALWAYS puts me back on the naughty list!
DeletePUPPIES!!!!!Buster and Lilith...Partners in Crime???
ReplyDeleteLove the Philly pictures.
I worked a short time at the Spa. Maybe I left to soon? To coat you in coca would have been fun! Hi to Buster!
ReplyDeleteWhy do I see your hands moving and hear a evil laugh???
DeleteOh, we know Buster didn't do anything. He's a little angel. Right? :-)
ReplyDeleteNice pictures. I'm glad the dog was reunited with his owners, and I could go for a chocolatini right about now.
Those pictures from Philly are wonderful...something so peaceful about the Art Museum picture. A spa day? I never had one...but could use one.
ReplyDeleteStunning post Mistress! A day at a spa is a great way to end the year to me. Who doesn't want to drink chocolate, eat chocolate and be covered in chocolate??? And yes....I have no problem licking myself.
ReplyDeleteAll these doggies are beyond adorable. Those faces.....
We can consult JP on this and get back to you dear.
Deletei think a lovely sentiment would be for you to pose like the statue of artemis for us all to view.
ReplyDeleteIts way to cold for that shit.
DeleteGreat photos. Great final statement. Ooh, and an espresso chocolate martini!
ReplyDeletelast statement ...just you wait.
