Bewitching Hour at the Casa.......



....will be in full swing soon with masks, plumes, whiskers, sidecars, French ticklers, and some tune by the ghost of French songster Charles Trenet!!

Sunday with The Women

Nothing like some good old fashioned cattiness! Love this movie.

"Well, girls, looks like it's back to the perfume counter for me. By the way, there's a name for you ladies, but it isn't used in high society - outside of a kennel"


"I'm an old woman dear. I know my sex."


"I hate to tell you, dear, but your skin makes the Rocky Mountains look like velvet"


" I made him pay for what he wants. You make him pay for what he doesn't want."

"Get me a bromide - and put some gin in it."

" If you throw a lambchop into a hot oven, what's gonna keep it from gettin' done?"

Oh, l'amour, l'amour, how it can let you down. Hmm. How it can pick you up again!!

Fall Day with Mistress and Buster Bolfig



Can I tell ya how nice to not have ANY PLANS!!! This is my only weekend to myself. All my men suitors are away, no family visiting, and no real plans to go anywhere, so I told myself it was the perfect weekend to take for just me, before all hell breaks loose again. I'll be seeing my good friend and sister Mame early next week and it will keep going from there! So... I decided to take a long evening fall walk and Buster Bolfig was more than ready. He loves a nice long walk. He is such a good companion. I got into my favorite Seven jeans, my comfy button down, and of course my Jack Purcell sneakers. God, I love those things!!!


Yes Buster is ready, so we set out.


We started off just right before dusk. I love the colors of the leaves now really starting to turn and the vibrant color of the berries bushes.









After the brisk walk, it was in order for some warming up Mistress style!


This time of year I love a warming, delish mulled cider. And your thinking that looks like some potent liqueur there. Well I usually add a pinch of Gentleman's Jack but this year since I'm on a Ginger kick, I am going to try it with Domaine du Canton, which is a ginger liqueur infused with brandy! And remember, just a pinch, like two cups. Just simmer the spices in cider for 20min, and then strain the spices and add your beverage of choice.




One must have something to eat with a mulled ginger cider so I got out some Camembert cheese and Rosemary flat breads.


Light some candles. Pecfect end of the day.


I think Buster looks satisfied after his walk, but not sure from this look.


Now I am just waiting my my dinner of chicken, potatoes, and carrots cooked in herbs, red wine, and a onion soup to be done. I wish you could smell the house! After, well I do have a small plan, but then it's Buster and I on the sofa for some BBC comedies and then a night of horror movie viewing! Tootles!

Ohhhhhhh Christina!!! You Poor Thing


Now as you all know I'm a huge fan of Christina Aguilera and her talented voice. But lately I don't know whats going on with the poor thing. Did I miss something in her life? Now this tidbit. Most dinning establishments require the wearing of at least a whole outfit, but apparently this one didn't mind that Christina Aguilera wasn't wearing pants while out to dinner on Monday night with boyfriend Matt Rutler. And by the way, where did she find him? Occupy Wall street? Instead, a makeup-less Christina decided to don a cropped motorcycle jacket, skimpy Warhol tee, fishnet stockings, and Louboutin platform pumps, which should NEVER BE WORN with this look!!!! That is just sacrilegious! I can see a few Gin and Bromides will be needed for my nevres, and then Christina and I are going to have a little talk on being a classy dame!!!
