Anal play. Let's talk about it. In the end, it's no more gross than sex (which is actually pretty gross, but is still awesome).
Basically, there are two ways to pleasure an anus: insertables or mouth. Insertables can be fingers, penises, toys, vibrators, beads, or anything else you decide to stick up there. Mouth is just that: kissing, licking, nibbling, or nuzzling. I have never actually used my mouth on someone's anus because I find that gross, even if the person just showered, I still have a hard time getting over the stigma. Plus, I wonder how awkward it is trying to get my face between two butt cheeks. If anyone out there has experience with this, please weigh in on the effect, techniques, pros and cons, etc.
But I have used insertables, both on myself and on a partner, so we're going to talk about that. Yes, I've had butt sex. And I have to say, it's different than vaginal sex, but it is still pleasurable. I like it when I'm feeling a bit rougher just because you can go to town with very little "damage" done. It is easier, granted, with someone who has a skinnier penis. Length isn't really a component, but girth definitely is. Just something to think about.
Positions that work well for anal sex are doggy-style (naturally), but also woman-on-top. As a matter of fact, woman-on-top may be better for your first time because you can control the speed and depth involved and be a little more in control of what is going on.
As for using insertables on a partner, I've tried using fingers on a couple different partners. And it's hot. There's something incredibly sexy about penetrating a partner and feeling the motions of your body echoing in theirs. It's also intimate as well - you're literally going inside someone, so respect that power.
Technique for fingers:
1. Start with just one finger and insert it slowly. When X and I first start anal play, I can only get my finger in to about the first knuckle. And that's okay! You cannot rush anal unless you want to traumatize your partner. Eventually, I can get my whole finger in, but it takes moving a little, resting so he can get used to the sensation, and then moving a little more. Take your time.
2. Movement is a good sensation. Try wiggling your finger and pulsing deeper. In and out motion doesn't work as well because the muscles react very fast and you're basically snapping them back into place every time you retract and forcing them apart again every time you go deeper. It's better just to find a good location and stay that deep until you're done.
3. Once your partner is used to one finger, you can remove it and try again with two. I haven't done more than two, but even two seems to be pushing it with my partners.
4. When you're withdrawing, GO SLOWLY. Again, when you withdraw, the muscles snap back into place. Do that too quickly and it will hurt your partner.
Grossed out, but intrigued by anal sex? Condoms are your friend! Even if you're fluid-bonded to your partner, it may be a good idea; even if you're fooling around in the shower, there may be a little bit of debris left on the insertable after use. You could clean the insertable off right away with soap and water, or you could just use a condom on the insertable and throw it away afterwards. X and I use expired condoms for my fingers. What else are we going to use them for? If you're planning to alternate between vaginal and anal sex, remember: you can go from vaginal to anal, but never the other way around. If you're planning to go from anal to vaginal, you need to clean the insertable or get a fresh condom. Just like cleaning yourself after using the toilet, front to back is safe, but never back to front.
If you want to try anal play, but you're not quite sure how to get into it, first broach the idea with your partner while both of you are of sound mind....then actually try it out (once you have sober permission) when you're a bit drunk. Why? (A) Because your inhibitions are a little lowered and it's easier to try something new. (B) Because alcohol relaxes your muscles and will make it easier to get something in. Another good idea is to try it during a co-shower - it's much easier to clean up after (yay soap and water!).
If you're not sure if you want your partner to try anal play on you, definitely play with yourself first to get an idea. First get yourself warmed up with general masturbation to get yourself in the mood. Then once you're feeling frisky, try it out. Try reaching from both between your legs and behind yourself to see what works best for you. Try it lying on your front and on your back. Remember motion is pleasurable, so wiggle your fingers and give it a shot.
There are cremes out there that will relax or numb anal muscles for you. If you want to try them, remember, apply it to the anus and give it a few minutes to sink in. After that, feel free to go to town with insertables, but don't ever use your mouth after you've used one of these cremes or you could end up with numb lips or tongue. Plus, they usually taste gross.
Have fun!
(Side note: when I was in college, I took a class called Human Sexuality. One of our assignments was to read a book on sexuality, any part of it, and write a review. At the time, I'd never done anything with anal, but I was intrigued by it, so I read a book on anal play. The intro lauded the anus, glorified the anus as a neglected sex organ. It ended the intro by proudly exclaiming "Love your anus!" It's hokey, but it's true. We love the cock and it both ejaculates and urinates. The anus defecates, but just like the penis, it can also be a playtime place. Love your anus!)

All 3 of us had a wonderful time with our guide Jeremy who is friendly, knowledgeable and caring... He is able to pace our walk to enjoy the scenery and the exercise. We even managed to hear and sight a couple of wild Koalas up in the trees!... He is also very knowledgeable...and provided us with abundant information on the waterfalls, trees, plants, history, forest, etc. Thanks Jeremy, that day with you will be remembered fondly by all 3 of us!..."

Let's start this Friday post out with the Jules Jewelry giveaway winner, shall we?! Incase you've forgotten, this lucky girl will win one of Jules BEAUTIFUL Sweet Pearl Bracelets!
Anddddd the winnnner isssssss…..
Missy! From the Beautiful Struggle.
Missy, please email me your address (email@example.com) so I can get your prize shipped to you asap! 🙂
Since I've been insanely busy as late, I wanted to let you all know, I'm alive and well! Very occupied, but still truckin'! I see that most of you are really taking advantage of the new FALL season and incorporation lots of yummy treats like apples, pumpkin, and squash into your daily meals!
As I lurk, I bookmark pages of recipes that I cannot WAIT to try on my own by my beloved blog friends…some of the chart toppers these days include
Anne's Sweet Potato Whole Wheat Bread Pudding
- 1.5 C skim milk
- 3/4 C canned pureed sweet potato (pumpkin would also work)
- 1/2 C brown sugar
- 1/2 C unsweetened applesauce
- 3 eggs
- 1 Tbsp. pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 5 slices 100% whole wheat Nature's Pride bread, toasted and cubed
Preheat oven to 350.
1) Whisk all ingredients except the bread together in a large bowl.
2) Toast the 5 slices of bread. This will make it hold it's shape when it bakes (when I dream up a new recipe, there's no way my excitement will allow me to wait for bread to go stale!).
3) Cut the toasted bread into cubes and add into a deep pan. Pour the sweet potato liquid mixture evenly on top of the bread.
4) Pop the pan into the oven for 25 to 30 minutes. Your kitchen will shortly smell amazing.
Caitlin's Autumn Grilled Banana Sandwich
Autumn Grilled Banana Sandwich
Ingredients (for 1 serving):
2 eggs, beaten
Two pieces of whole wheat bread
- 1 banana
- 1/4 cup canned pumpkin
- 1/2 tablespoon chia seeds
- Drizzle of honey
- Dash of cinnamon
- Sprinkle of crushed pecans
- Grease and heat frying pan.
- Make basic French bread by dredging the toast in eggs and placing on grilled.
- Meanwhile, slice the banana and place on griddle to cook.
- While the toast and banana cooks, mix pumpkin, chia seeds, honey, and cinnamon together in a small bowl.
- Once toast has finished cooking, remove from heat and put bananas in between slices. Top with pumpkin mix and pecans.
- 1/2 cup low fat cottage cheese (or LF greek yogurt, or you could replace the water with milk and nix the cottage cheese)
- 1-2 scoops vanilla or plain protein powder (1-2 depending on if it's a meal or snack)
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice (or 1/8 tsp of nutmeg)
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 2 tbs splenda/stevia/sweetener of choice (more or less to achieve desired sweetness)
- 2 tbs cool whip
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 full tray of ice cubes
- optional topping: crushed honey teddy grahams
(*Optional- 1/2 tsp Xanthax gum (you can get this from meijer in the gluten free section, or whole foods, or health food stores, just a pinch of it makes your shake sooo thick and creamy!)
- ONE SIMPLE STEP! Put all the base ingredients in the blender PLUS the ingredients listed under the shake of your choice, and blend away until desired consistency! Top with crushed teddy grams if desired…and enjoy!!!!
Chocolate Covered Katie's Raw Sneaky Veggie Cheesecake
Raw "Sneaky Veggie" Cheesecake
- 1/2 cup cashew butter, such as Artisana (about 110g)
- Heaping 1/2 cup raw zucchini (80g)
- Heaping 1/8 tsp salt
- Scant 2T lemon juice (20g)
- 1/2 T water (10g)
- 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- Sweetener: I use 8 vanilla drops for me (almost 1/8 tsp), or 20ish for others. If you use a liquid sweetener, omit the water.
Add all the ingredients together and blend very well. If you're using a Magic Bullet, you might want to blend the zucchini a little, first, so it doesn't stay chunky. Transfer your mixture to a pie-crust or cheesecake mold (I actually use an empty soy cream- cheese container) and freeze. Thaw before eating. This makes a mini cheesecake. For a true-sized cheesecake, double or triple the recipe.
Aren't these ladies' concoctions amazing?!
Another noteworthy fall food addition? This one is especially for all you gluten-free readers out there! Check out Kinnikinnick Foods' Pumpkin Spice Gluten-free Donuts! They'll only be available from now until November 30th, and they're 20% off until October 8th!

He sent me an email this morning of his progress and I can say again, I'm QUITE proud. His dedication and hard work are truly paying off and we've got numbers to prove it! He also mentioned that he doesn't hate Shaun T quite as badly anymore 😉 Hahaha.

The funeral for Mike Harper, an emeritus member of Creighton Universitys Board of Trustees, was held June 2, in St. Johns Church on the Creighton campus. Harper, the former chairman and CEO of ConAgra Foods, Inc., and RJR-Nabisco, died Saturday, May 28. He was 88.
During his tenure at ConAgra from 1974 to 1992, the company grew into a $20-billion-a-year food conglomerate. While at ConAgra, Harper provided the initiative to revitalize downtown Omaha by moving ConAgras campus to the citys riverfront. He also partnered with government officials to enhance the business climate across Nebraska.Creighton presented him with an honorary degree in 1995 in recognition of his corporate and civic contributions.
The Harper Center on the Creighton campus, which houses the Heider College of Business, is named for Charles M. Mike and Joan F. Josie Bruggema Harper, whose philanthropic gifts and civic engagement enriched Creighton, Omaha and the surrounding region.
Mike Harper, his wife, Josie, and the entire Harper family have been generous supporters of Creighton University and our Jesuit, Catholic mission, said Creighton University President the Rev. Daniel S. Hendrickson, S.J. The Harper Center, which bears the family name, is a showpiece and signature facility on our east campus and serves students in multiple capacities as home to our Heider College of Business, the Schlegel Center for Service and Justice, and the John P. Fahey Career Center, among other uses.
At the time of the dedication of the Harper Center, Mike Harper said the building stood as a tribute to his late wife, Josie, a loving mother and ardent supporter of family, education and health care. The Josie Harper Nursing Scholarship at Creighton also honors her memory.
Harper also gave generously to honor Creightons three immediate past presidents, the Rev. Michael Morrison, S.J., the Rev. John Schlegel, S.J., and the Rev. Tim Lannon, S.J.
I think Mike he didnt like being called Mr. Harper thought very highly of the Jesuits, said Steve Scholer, senior philanthropic advisor at Creighton. The best evidence of this is probably in his philanthropy honoring all three of Creightons past presidents. Mike chose to honor Fr. Morrison with an endowed professorship in history, helped bring Fr. Schlegels dream to build a student living-learning center to life, and just recently he endowed a very substantial scholarship in honor of Fr. Lannon. Why? I believe he wanted to honor them for their integrity, honesty and leadership, all traits he embodied as well.
The Harper Endowed chair in leadership will be inaugurated this fall.
Creighton University is a Jesuit, Catholic university bridging health, law, business and the arts and sciences for a more just world.

I was trying to listen to the game, but turned to the station and heard only silence. "Must be a rain delay," I told my wife, except — and, please note, this is where events skew decidedly fantastic — except it wasn't my wife in the next room, but radio voice of baseball's Milwaukee Brewers, Bob Uecker, instead.
"This is clearly absurd," I said. "You're supposed to be in Milwaukee, not in my affordable apartment in Madison." To which sentiment he responded: "Supposed to? I'm 77 years old, man. My only obligation now is to greet the abyss with something not unlike dignity."
That was a great moment between us — probably one of my top-five as an adult so far, were I to make a list.
In conclusion:

MGM's 1938 good-spirited adaption of Charles Dicken's "A Christmas Carol". Directed by Edwin L. Marin, starring Reginald Owen as the miser Ebenezer Scrooge, Gene and Kathleen Lockhart as Bob and Mrs. Cratchit, Barry MacKay as Ebenezer's nephew Fred, June Lockhart as one of the Cratchit daughters, Belinda, and Terry Kilburn as Tiny Tim.
On Christmas eve the Ghost of Jacob Marley (Leo G. Carroll), Scrooges once business partner, appears to inform Ebenezer that he is to be visited by three spirits that same night; the Ghost of Christmas Past (Ann Rutherford), Present (Lionel Braham), and Future (D'Arcy Corrigan). That perhaps will make the old man have the change of heart he needs, and live out his days in kindness and joy instead of misery and greed.
It just wouldn't seem like the season til this treasure fit for all is watched!

We are a family. Our days are about sandcastles, skateboards and dirty knees; belly laughs, salty hair, and high-fives; coffee breaks, bare feet, and beach walks. We laugh hard, we dream big, our eyes are full of wonder, and our hearts are full of love. We rock our weeks in style – with big smiles, a little bit of attitude, and a healthy amount of chaos.
We are Little Pinwheel.

I've a little card to share with you this afternoon - it's only 4" square and is all shades of pink!! I've used a few challenges to make it:
- CAS-ual Fridays - CFC88 - to use letters in your design
- Colour Q - cQc174
- Freshly Made Sketches - FMS71
- Addicted to CAS - ATCAS5 to use a heart
Stamps: Stampin' Up! - Cross My Heart; Waltzingmouse - Compact Family
Inks: SU - Early Espresso, Raspberry Ripple
Dies: Spellbinders - Classic Heart (S4-136) #3; Woodware Punch - Tag
Accessories: SU Card - Raspberry Ripple, Primrose Petals; SU Design Paper - Pink Pirouette; Embossing Folders - Cuttlebug - Love Language; cArt Us - Hearts; Ribbon and card base from stash
I have been quite faithful to the Freshly Made Sketch. I started by embossing the backing paper with little hearts and highlighting them by rubbing over some Early Espresso ink. Next I cut a tag in Raspberry Ripple and used another heart folder to emboss it, again I highlighted the embossed detail and finished off the tag by adding some brown ribbon from my stash. I die cut a plain heart in Primrose Petal card which I attached to the card with dimensional tape. I finished off the front of the card with my letters in a little crossword puzzle! I stamped it twice, once in brown and again in dark pink cutting out the tiny heart and adhering it to the image. The inside is really simple - a Raspberry Ripple mat and white card panel on which I've stamped a message - I think you can guess who this is for!!
Bye for now - keep warm and safe.

Ice sheets and glaciers form the largest component of perennial ice on this planet. Over 75% of the world's fresh water is presently locked up in these frozen reservoirs. The Antarctic Ice Sheet is more complicated than the Greenland Ice Sheet. In the past three million years, there have been four glacial periods, each followed by an interglacial period. The most recent glacial period began about 75,000 years ago. The Antarctic Ice Sheets outlet glaciers include the steep and heavily creviced Beordmore Glacier, one of the worlds longest outlet.
A glacier is a huge mass of ice that flows slowly over land. They form in the cold polar regions and in high mountains. The low temperatures in these places enable large amounts of snow to build up and turn inti ice. Most glaciers range in thickness from about 91 to 3,000 meters. Glaciers are formed when more snow falls during the winter than melts and evaporates in summer. The extra snow gradually builds up in layers. Its increasing weight causes the snow crystals under the surface to become compact, grainlike pellets. At depths of 15 meters or more, the pellets are further compressed into thick crystals of ice. These crystals combine to form glacial ice. The ice eventually becomes so thick that it begins to move under the pressure of its own great weight.
Huge moving sheets of ice are wearing down parts of the earth's surface. In Antarctica and Greenland, ice covers all but the tips of the highest mountains. These ice sheets are located in Greenland, Antarctica and other frozen parts of North and South Pole. The ice sheet that covers much of Greenland is growing smaller because of a gradual rise in temperature in the area since the early 1900s.

Oh how I hate these dastardly tails!!!! I'm a little past 1/2 way with weaving them in and then the border making can commence. I am absolutely thrilled with the size of this beautiful afghan and I cannot wait to have it finished so I can post lots of pics!!!!
It's a lazy day here at Aunt Lala's House, hubby is working, kids are napping, and of course there is nothing on TV right now so I'm just happily hooking away on my next creation. It's a beautiful ripple using the Cozy Pack (Stylecraft Special DK) from Lucy at Attic24.
Hope you're all having a happy, lazy day!!!
Lots of Love,

Jessica and Michael were recently married at one of my favorite venues, De Seversky Mansion. Jessica was an exquisitely beautiful Bride.
She also has exquisite taste in flowers. It was very fun creating her vision of floral arrangements for her wedding day, as we share a passion for the beautiful peony.
Photography by Imagine Studios
We know our hard work in creating their vision has paid off when a bride is completely happy with all of the arrangements, like Jessica expressed below:
Hi Cristina,
I hope all is well! …Everything about our wedding day was perfect; it was truly the most AMAZING day of my life.
When I walked into the ballroom for the first time; I began to cry, because it was set-up exactly how I had imagined! The bouquets, centerpieces and floral arrangement on the staircase were absolutely stunning; I have never seen such gorgeous peonies!
The flowers were beautiful and definitely completed my whole vision; it was exactly what I had wanted. The flowers were not only gorgeous that night, but lasted over a week!
I wanted to say THANK YOU to both you and Ron for making my day so wonderful!
I wish I could do it all over again because it went by way too fast!…
Thank you, Jessica, for such kind words. It was a pleasure being a part of your wedding day dream.
Are you looking for a Long Island wedding florist to help you create your own unique wedding day? Give us a call. Bella Flowers would love to help.

I checked back in with the Firefly Family recently. No, not the Firefly Family that flew through space, though they are always fun to revisit as well. The Fireflys that ruined lives and made the world a scarier place. Rob Zombie's House of 1000 Corpses and The Devil's Rejects. I remembered liking both films when I saw them originally, but re-watching them brought several things to light that made them even more enjoyable. I also watched them in reverse order which added another layer of interest to the whole experience.
Devil's Rejects is a cleaner and smoother ride for sure. In many ways it's slicker and more concise. It's by far the more "mainstream" of the two. House is a throwback to the scares of the 70s and 80s with some elements that I had completely forgotten about. Together, they make an epic double header.
House proved to have more supernatural elements than I had remembered. Creature people crawling from mud, mad killers with bio-shock mechanics keeping them moving and black magic. The overarching feeling of dread is matched by the feeling that these kinds of people could easily be out there...somewhere...doing horrid things to somewhat nice and clueless people.
Rejects continues the storyline and takes things to a more real place. Less supernatural and more snatched from the headlines in it's feel, Rejects manages to be mean spirited and fun at the same time. People are treated badly, but for some reason, it dodges the realm of cruelty by millimeters. I think it's the way the overall violence is handled. It's still not a movie for the faint of heart.
Spoilers coming. Wait for it....
But why re-watch these films, you may ask.
First, I was one of the people that didn't hate the Halloween remakes, but wasn't thrilled with them either. They were slick and did make an effort to be different and new, but they just didn't "wow" me like I had hoped. You still had Zombie elements, but they seemed out of place. Hillbilly Hipsters lining up for Michael Meyers just seemed boring and so far removed from the suburban terrors of the original that it missed the mark for me. When I heard that there may be a Devils Rejects 2, I was confused.
Here's that spoiler....
They died at the end. They were shot to bits, as they should be, of course. So, how do they come back in Devils 2?
In the end of Devils, "Tiny" heads back into the house of fire after Otis B. Driftwood says, "Ok...we'll be back for you." It's obvious that Tiny isn't going to last long in a house that's blazing. Otis, Captain Spaulding (the brilliant madman, Sid Haig), and Baby "show my butt" Firefly drive to their doom in a blaze of glory in a scene that is truly reminiscent of some of the old classics like Vanishing Point. It's more obvious in HOUSE, but there's obviously something other worldly about the Fireflys and their ways. They always manage to cheat death, it's just a matter of how now.
I think this could be a fun little exercise of Zombie does it right. I'd love to see a combined effort of scares, supernatural badies and road movie. Can Zombie pull it off? Will he bother trying?
These films are worth a re-watch. Check 'em out!

Raymond Munro House, age 86, of Wilmington, DE, passed away peacefully on Sunday, May 7, 2017 with his loving family by his side.
Born and raised in Wichita, Kansas, Ray was the son of the late Byron and Norah House. He spent four years in the U.S. Air Force (1951-1955), which included 36 months in Japan. In 1958, Ray received his B.S. Degree in Accounting from Wichita State University. After graduation in 1958, Ray began his career with The Boeing Company, Wichita Division. In 1968, he transferred to The Boeing Company, Helicopter Division in Ridley Park, PA and moved to Wilmington, DE. Ray retired from The Boeing Company as the Director of Finance on April 1, 1991 after 33 years of service.
In his earlier years, Ray enjoyed boating, especially along the Chesapeake Bay. He also loved snow skiing, which he had done all over the country well into his 70's. Ray will be remembered as a man of few words, who expressed his love through his actions rather than words. He was a strong yet vulnerable man, who had an amazing soul and a big heart. Ray will be deeply missed by his children, who will treasure their many memories of him as an amazing father.
Ray is survived his son, Brian Robert House; his daughter, Allison Rae House (John Aiello); his brother, Weston Clark House (Judi); his two grandchildren, Amanda and Reade Aiello; and Allison's mother-in-law, Marylou Aiello. He was predeceased by his parents and his sister, Marilynn May House.
