Ooooh! I'm in, I'm in! I almost bought the Russian Red last week, now I'll cross my fingers... You are a great inspiration, Gertie, I LOVE your blog!ReplyDelete
I have always wanted to try Russian Red, but whenever I visit the Mac counter they are always sold out!ReplyDelete
Count me in! :) Been following your blog for a while now. Don't know almost anything about sewing but your blog is so lovely anyhow.ReplyDelete
Mmmm...yes please! I've always been a drugstore makeup girl, myself so a grown up lady lipstick would be a real treat. I subscribe to a great many (too many) sewing blogs, but yours is one of my very favourites. Keep it up! (oh, and nice new glasses too!)ReplyDelete
Russian Red would be lovely! I always look to your blog for inspiration, I especially love your new glasses. Such a cute look :)ReplyDelete
Oooh, pick me, pick me!;-)ReplyDelete
Pretty! I love your new look! I would love to have the lipstick!ReplyDelete
I've always wanted to try Russian Red! Similarly, I've never been a seamstress, but your blog has made me consider more seriously the idea of taking up sewing. Keep up the lovely work!ReplyDelete
Sweet, I hope I win! And if i do win, hopefully the color will look as good on me as it does on you!ReplyDelete
That's fantastic - I can't image 500 - I have 7 and am thrilled:) Congratulations!!ReplyDelete
How fabulous! For some reason, with all my MAC products, this is not one in the bag, but I'd love to have it! I've heard fantastic things about the shade.ReplyDelete
Congrats on having reached over 500 followers! Your blog is awesome; so I am not surprised.ReplyDelete
Love the blog! Enter me, please! :)ReplyDelete
Are you counting all of us that are Google Reader subscribers? There's 130+ of us!ReplyDelete
And YAY for more lip product!
I have been thinking about trying a red lipstick but never knew what to get. And I love MAC.ReplyDelete
i don't know if this is a international giveaway, but if you are able to ship to sweden, i'm in! :)ReplyDelete
Hey, Gertie. I am not going to enter for the giveaway. I am too fair, too blonde, and too old to wear the Russian Red. But, I love MAC products. And I love your blog. Congrats on 500!ReplyDelete
One more entry here! I've almost run out of my own tube of Russian Red, so a new one would be great ;)ReplyDelete
500 followers?!? I'm so jealous.ReplyDelete
I have been dying to try this lipstick, but had to give up "extravagant" purchases because I got married last year. (I should have just bought it for the wedding...)
Mercy me! I've followed your blog for a while now and I love what you do here. Thank YOU for writing such a great little blog.ReplyDelete
I'm a recent convert to the good gospel of red lipstick, and I'd love to try Russian Red!
Congratulations on having so many followers. One of the reasons you have so many is because you're inspiring; another is that you are generous with your knowledge. Keep up the great work!ReplyDelete

luv luv red! Count me too! When I'm in San Diego the MAC counter is always out of this & it's time to stop digging the color out of the bottom of my old fave Vintage Red by Elizabeth Arden...! (RIP) Red lips wake me up & compliment my wardrobe - no pastels here. My latest upcoming project when I finish my current little jacket is an amazing vintage Vogue pattern no. 9825 w/ a cleverly draped cowl neckline, deep scoop back, fitted waist, full swishy skirt & a long fitted sleeve. I've chosen a sheer charcoal cotton (a little softer than organdy) to layer over indigo (or black - I haven't decided). Check it out on wiki.ReplyDelete
Sorry, for the long post. I get all excited about vintage patterns and had to bubble.
500! Congratulations! I want the lipstick!ReplyDelete
ooo I just found you via sewweekly.com and I've definitely added you to my google reader! I'd love some lippy ;)ReplyDelete
I've always wanted to be the kind of woman who wore red lipstick. Love your new look by the way. The glasses are awesome.ReplyDelete
Congratulations, Gertie! Here's to the next 500!ReplyDelete
You deserve every reader you have! I love your blog and I LOVE red lipstick! =)ReplyDelete
Congrats on the milestone. Now that's a red, perfect for valentines.ReplyDelete
I've adored (and been inspired by) so many of your sewing projects, and read you blog almost daily, and yet it is the lure of free stuff that finally drives me to leave a comment... You can draw your own conclusions on my character from this!ReplyDelete
I'm in! I've been looking for a killer red lipstick for a long time.ReplyDelete
(also, I do follow you through google reader!)
congrats! you deserve it, your blog is awesome! i haven't worn a nice red lipstick in a while and its about time i give it another go...ReplyDelete
I'm in the Google Reader crew. And you're right, MAC is the best lipstick EVER.ReplyDelete
Congratulations for your crowd of readers! You deserve them and many more, your blog is truly inspiring. Hope I get lucky and I can make that beautiful lipstick mine. BTW, I like your new glasses very much. And the cat videos. Take care!ReplyDelete
Congratulations! I am new to following your blog, but I absolutely love it! I hope I win!!!ReplyDelete
- melissaJanuary 17, 2010 at 2:22 PM
although I don't official follow via google (hence my always choosing the name/url option when commenting!) I do have you on my top sites on my mac, and am always happy when there's a little blue star since it means you've updated!ReplyDelete
congrats on 500, but you definitely have even more than that reading!
Hello! Count me in too. I love your blog and I hope I win. :)ReplyDelete
You're so sweet to be doing this! Thank you. :)ReplyDelete
I have recently tried using red lipstick and have loved it! I have yet to find the perfect shade, however. ^_^ReplyDelete

Congratulations! What a wonderful giveaway! Sign me up, and thanks so much!!!ReplyDelete
Oh I have been wanting to try it for ages! I just love your blog (and also, your new glasses look fantastic!)ReplyDelete
I have been following your blog every day like it's the news, looking for the next vlog. (It turns out I learn a lot more from a visual presentation, than just a book!) Thank you for all your work. It's very inspiring. I've been wearing red lipstick since 1995, so I would love, love to receive some MAC. What a cool way to connect with your readers. Gotta love a giveaway. Thanks, for the opportunity, Gertie!ReplyDelete
Count me in on this!
Count me in too! Love your blog especially getting to see all of the classic old dress patterns :)!ReplyDelete
Oh I love your blog! You inspired me to finally learn to sew. Thanks so much. By the way, love the new look.ReplyDelete

Hi Gertie,ReplyDelete
I never wear lipstick but considered buying this one after I saw it on your blog.
I wish I had more time to sew. You are a real inspiration. I got some vintage sewing patterns for Christmas that I found in an Etsy shop I discovered through your blog. I can't wait to use them (late 40's early 50's).
At the moment, I am sewing a dress from Colette patterns (that's through this blog that I found yours).
Love your blog !
You inspired me to buy some MAC lipstick last week, but I got a different red. I'd love to give Russian red a try too!ReplyDelete
I look forward to each of your blog post. Its been a delight to follow along your sewing journey.
There's nothing like a great red lip to perk up your day. Hope I win!ReplyDelete
Exciting! I'm really enjoying your blog and picking up sewing tips from you. ^_^ReplyDelete
oooh! I follow, I follow!!!!ReplyDelete
I love your blog, so even if I don't get the prize, I'm glad to have an excuse to comment and tell you what a nice job you do!ReplyDelete
Congratulations on so many followers! :DReplyDelete
500 followers! Wow! Love this colour, hope it looks as delicious on me as it does on you! Definitely count me in!ReplyDelete
congrats on all the followers! What a lovely gift!!ReplyDelete

I just blogged about red heads wearing red. Perhaps if I end up making a sheath dress in read for Valentines day I could be bold enough to go for red lips as well!
The best present i ever got is a Anna Sui red lipstick with a matching nail polish in a matching red anna sui tin. Its my go to red lipstick but i have been wanting to explore other red's particularly the russian red since i am wearing it more regularly!!ReplyDelete
Congrats on all your success as a blogger and as a sewist! You have a great blog!

What an appropriate celebratory gift! Cheers to that, and cheers to being so popular!ReplyDelete
I'm a follower too, but on Bloglovin :-)ReplyDelete
What a beautiful giveaway!
I've been contemplating going in and buying myself some of the Russian Red, but haven't gotten up the nerve. (Promptly crosses fingers).ReplyDelete
Congrats on 500! I decided last week that I need a little more red in my life and went to the M.A.C counter and the lady made me up in Russian Red. It was the middle of the day and for someone who does not wear lipstick it was a bit of a shock but I ended up loving it!!! I felt powerful and sexy!ReplyDelete
Wow, that's very generous of you! I've been reading your blog for a couple of months and your writing is not only informative but very entertaining. Also, I love your style! :) So enter me in the giveaway - I'll probably not be able to get MAC products here in Germany. ;)ReplyDelete
Entering! I love your blog, congratulations!ReplyDelete

You were obviously a stunner 'before' your makeover but you are absolutely glowing in those 'after' photos!
thanks for sharing
Dearest Gertie, your blog has inspired me to turn to vintage patterns to fill the void in my wardrobe. Your posts are causing me to sew like a madwoman, and this is a very good thing! And also, you have a fantastic choice in lip colour :)ReplyDelete
Keep writing!
I just found you and as soon as I had read a few posts I knew I had to follow ya. And that is such a yummy shade of red. If you sent it my way, I wouldn't complain, I need a little pick-me-up. Four more weeks until Baby Number 2 is here!ReplyDelete

Congratulations on 500 Subscribers and thank you for inspiring me to pull out my old faithful Bernina and start sewing again. I live in a small beach town where walking down the street in anything but shorts and flip flops is stared at so finding your blog and like minded people is a real God send for me. Keep posting!ReplyDelete
I'm one of those new followers... but it's through Bloglovin'! Wonder what your numbers are there.ReplyDelete
Love the lipstick!
I'd love to try out the Russian Red! xx ClaireReplyDelete

Slime mold development video by John Tyler Bonner
This video is composed of a sequence of time lapse films created by John Tyler Bonner in the 1940s to show the life cycle of the cellular slime mold, Dictyostelium discoideum. As only the second person to study slime molds, Bonner frequently encountered audiences who had never heard of, let alone seen, the unusual organism. He therefore decided to create a film to present at seminars in order to introduce his object of study. Bonner created the video for his senior thesis at Harvard University with the help of photographer Frank Smith.

Bacteria of the genus Wolbachia are
bacteria that live within the cells of their hosts. They infect a
wide range of arthropods (insects, arachnids, and crustaceans) and
some nematodes (parasitic roundworms). Scientists estimate that
Wolbachia exist in between seventeen percent and seventy-six percent of
arthropods and nematodes. The frequency of the bacteria makes them
one of the most widespread parasites. In general, they are divided

The Southern Gastric-Brooding Frog (Rheobatrachus silus) was an aquatic frog that lived in south-east Australia.

All cells that have a nucleus, including plant, animal, fungal cells, and most single-celled protists, also have mitochondria. Mitochondria are particles called organelles found outside the nucleus in a cell's cytoplasm. The main function of mitochondria is to supply energy to the cell, and therefore to the organism. The theory for how mitochondria evolved, proposed by Lynn Margulis in the twentieth century, is that they were once free-living organisms.

Study of Fossilized Massospondylus Dinosaur Embryos from South Africa (1978-2012)
In 1978, James Kitching discovered two dinosaur embryos in a road-cut talus at Roodraai (Red Bend) in Golden Gate Highlands National Park, South Africa. Kitching assigned the fossilized embryos to the species of long necked herbivores Massospondylus carinatus (longer vertebra) from the Early Jurassic period, between 200 and 183 million years ago. The embryos were partially visible but surrounded by eggshell and rock, called matrix. Kitching said that the eggs were too delicate to remove from the matrix without damage.

Golden Rice
Golden Rice was engineered from normal rice by Ingo Potrykus and Peter Beyer in the 1990s to help improve human health. Golden Rice has an engineered multi-gene biochemical pathway in its genome. This pathway produces beta-carotene, a molecule that becomes vitamin A when metabolized by humans. Ingo Potrykus worked at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich, Switzerland, and Peter Beyer worked at University of Freiburg, in Freiburg, Germany. The US Rockefeller Foundation supported their collaboration.

Dictyostelium discoideum
Dictyostelium discoideum is a cellular slime mold that serves as an important model organism in a variety of fields. Cellular slime molds have an unusual life cycle. They exist as separate amoebae, but after consuming all the bacteria in their area they proceed to stream together to form a multicellular organism. These features make it a valuable tool for studying developmental processes and also for investigating the evolution of multicellularity. Long thought to be a type of fungus, it has recently been shown that slime molds in fact bear no relation to fungi.

"Part-Human Chimeras: Worrying the Facts, Probing the Ethics" (2007), by Françoise Baylis and Jason Scott Robert
In 2007, Françoise Baylis and Jason Scott Robert published "Part-Human Chimeras: Worrying the Facts, Probing the Ethics" in The American Journal of Bioethics. Within their article, hereafter "Part-Human Chimeras," the authors offer corrections on "Thinking About the Human Neuron Mouse," a report published in The American Journal of Bioethics in 2007 by Henry Greely, Mildred K. Cho, Linda F. Hogle, and Debra M. Satz, which discussed the debate on the ethics of creating part-human chimeras. Chimeras are organisms that contain two or more genetically distinct cell lines.

"How do Embryos Assess Risk? Vibrational Cues in Predator-Induced Hatching of Red-Eyed Treefrogs" (2005), by Karen Warkentin
In 'How do Embryos Assess Risk? Vibrational Cues in Predator-Induced Hatching of Red-Eyed Treefrogs' (2005), Karen Warkentin reported on experiments she conducted to see how red-eyed treefrog embryos, Agalychnis callidryas, can distinguish between vibrations due to predator attacks and other environmental occurrences, such as storms. Though the ability of red-eyed treefrogs to alter their hatch timing had been documented, the specific cues that induce early hatching were not well understood.

"The Science and Ethics of Making Part-Human Animals in Stem Cell Biology" (2006), by Jason Scott Robert
In 2006, bioethicist Jason Scott Robert published "The Science and Ethics of Making Part-Human Animals in Stem Cell Biology" in The FASEB Journal. There, he reviews the scientific and ethical justifications and restrictions on creating part-human animals. Robert describes part-human animals, otherwise known as chimeras, as those resulting from the intentional combination of human and nonhuman cells, tissues, or organs at any stage of development.

Intraspecies Chimeras Produced in Laboratory Settings (1960-1975)
When cells-but not DNA-from two or more genetically distinct individuals combine to form a new individual, the result is called a chimera. Though chimeras occasionally occur in nature, scientists have produced chimeras in a laboratory setting since the 1960s. During the creation of a chimera, the DNA molecules do not exchange genetic material (recombine), unlike in sexual reproduction or in hybrid organisms, which result from genetic material exchanged between two different species. A chimera instead contains discrete cell populations with two unique sets of parental genes.

Lysogenic Bacteria as an Experimental Model at the Pasteur Institute (1915-1965)
Lysogenic bacteria, or virus-infected bacteria, were the primary experimental models used by scientists working in the laboratories of the Pasteur Institute in Paris, France, during the 1950s and 1960s. Historians of science have noted that the use of lysogenic bacteria as a model in microbiological research influenced the scientific achievements of the Pasteur Institute's scientists.

Neurospora crassa
Neurospora crassa is a red mold that scientists use to study genetics. N. crassa commonly grows on bread as shown in the top left corner of this figure. To culture the mold in lab, researchers grow it in glassware such as test tubes, Erlenmeyer flasks, and petri dishes, as shown in the top right corner of the figure. In the glassware, researchers place a gel, called a medium, of agar, sucrose, salts, and vitamins. The mold grows on the medium, and cotton stoppers prevent anything from contaminating the mold.

Beadle and Ephrussi Show that Something Besides Eye Tissue Determines Eye Color in Fruit Flies
In the 1930s, George Beadle and Boris Ephrussi discovered factors that affect eye colors in developing fruit flies. They did so while working at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, California. (1) They took optic discs (colored fuchsia in the image) from fruit fly larvae in the third instar stage of development. Had the flies not been manipulated, they would have developed into adults with vermilion eyes.

A Fate Map of the Chick Embryo
A 3-D fate map of the chicken (Gallus gallus) embryo with the prospective point of ingression and yolk. The area where the primitive streak will form during gastrulation is shown. The anterior- posterior axis is shown by labeling the anterior and posterio ends (A) and (P). Different colors indicate prospective fates of different regions of the epiblast after gastrulation.

The Blastoderm in Chicks During Early Gastrulation
This image shows a chicken (Gallus gallus) embryo undergoing gastrulation in stage four (18-19 hrs after laying) according to the Hamburger-Hamilton staging series. At this point in time the chicken embryo is a blastoderm (shown in blue). The first magnification of the embryo shows that the blastoderm cell layers have thickened to form the primitive streak and Hensen's node. The primitive streak extends from the posterior (P) region to the anterior (A) region. The second rectangular magnification shows the blastoderm cross-sectioned through the primitive streak.

Jelly Fish and Green Fluorescent Protein
The crystal jellyfish, Aequorea victoria, produces and emits light, called bioluminescence. Its DNA codes for sequence of 238 amino acids that forms a protein called Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP). FP is folded so that a part of the protein, called the chromophore, is located in the center of the protein. The chemical structure of the chromophore emits a green fluorescence when exposed to light in the range of blue to ultraviolet.

Southern Gastric Brooding Frog
The Southern Gastric Brooding Frog (Rheobotrahcus silus) was a frog species that lived in Australia. It was declared extinct in 2002. Once adult males fertilized the eggs of females, the females swallowed their eggs. The stomachs of the females then functioned somewhat like wombs, protecting the eggs while they gestated. Once the eggs developed into juveniles, female frogs performed oral birth and regurgitated their young.

Neurospora crassa Life Cycle
This diagram shows the life cycle of Neurospora crassa, a mold that grows on bread. N. crassa can reproduce through an asexual cycle or a sexual cycle. The asexual cycle (colored as a purple circle), begins in this figure with (1a) vegetative mycelium, which are strands of mature fungus. Some of the strands form bulbs (2a) in a process called conidiation. From those bulbs develop the conidia, which are spores. Next, (3a) a single conidium separates from its strand and elongates until it forms mycelium.

Beadle and Ephrussi's Technique to Transplant Optic Discs between Fruit Fly Larvae
In 1935, George Beadle and Boris Ephrussi developed a technique to transplant optic discs between fruit fly larvae. They developed it while at the California Institute of Technology in Pasedena, California. Optic discs are tissues from which the adult eyes develop. Beadle and Ephrussi used their technique to study the development of the eye and eye pigment.

Fruit Fly Life Cycle
Fruit flies of the species Drosophila melanogaster develop from eggs to adults in eight to ten days at 25 degrees Celsius. They develop through four primary stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. When in the wild, female flies lay their fertilized eggs in rotting fruit or other decomposing material that can serve as food for the larvae. In the lab, fruit flies lay their fertilized eggs in a mixture of agar, molasses, cornmeal, and yeast. After roughly a day, each egg hatches into a larva.

Paul Kammerer's Experiments on Sea-squirts in the Early Twentieth Century
In the early twentieth century, Paul Kammerer, a zoologist working at the Vivarium in Vienna, Austria, experimented on sea-squirts (Ciona intestinalis). Kammerer claimed that results from his experiments demonstrated that organisms could transmit characteristics that they had acquired in their lifetimes to their offspring. Kammerer conducted breeding experiments on sea-squirts and other organisms at a time when Charles Darwin's 1859 theory of evolution lacked evidence to explain how offspring inherited traits from their parents.

Oviraptor philoceratops Dinosaurs
Oviraptor philoceratops was a small bird-like dinosaur that lived about seventy-five million years ago, during the late Cretaceous period. In 1923, George Olsen of the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) in New York City, New York, discovered the first Oviraptor fossilized skeleton on top of a dinosaur egg nest in the Gobi Desert, Mongolia. Because of the close proximity of dinosaur and nest, when Henry Fairfield Osborn president of the AMNH published on the discovery, he assumed that the Oviraptor had died attempting to steal the eggs.

If you have read my reviews for any length of time you will know that one of my many film bias is an extreme dislike of talking animals in my movies. Generally, they creep me out and take me right out of the experience. The one exception to that rule was The Chronicles of Narnia. I didn't think that was a perfect film, but I liked it well enough to go and read all of the books. I always thought Prince Caspian was a pretty weak book. It was too short, the lead character Prince Caspian (Ben Barnes) was a whiney little #$## who didn't do much in it, but the book's biggest sin was it didn't really delve into what it must of been like for the Pevensie kids – High King Peter Pevensie (William Moseley), Edmund Pevensie The Just (Skandar Keynes), Lucy Pevensie – The Valiant (Georgie Henley) and Susan Pevensie (Anna Popplewell) adjusted to the idea that they were adult Kings and Queens trapped as powerless 13 – 16 year old children. The book missed an opportunity to explore this dichotomy. When we first see the Pevensie kids we see how they are adjusting – not well. Peter is getting into fights over the most minor slights and it's up to Edmund to protect his back. And that's the beautiful thing about this movie – it's how the Pevensie family has become so close to each other and wise. In the first film they were typical one dimensional kids and the kid actors were clearly out of the element.
Here, they are very self aware and self assured as both actors and characters. There are times when you watch this movie where you can really see the duality of their personalities. You get that yes while they may look like kids, they truly are the former great Kings and Queens that they once were. It's in their eyes, the way they move, and how they act. These kids could never had pulled this complexity of emotion off in the first film, but here it's as if they were born to play these parts. The change in Edmund and Susan are the most pronounced. Edmund is a bad ass, calculating warrior that will do anything to protect his family, especially his brother Peter. While Susan has grown to be quite the fighter herself, the camera loves her and director Andrew Adamson showcases her perfectly, especially during the sweeping battles. When Susan breaks out the bow and arrow it's a thing of beauty and pleasure to watch. As far as the animals go, I had the biggest concern for the noble mouse Reepicheep, I didn't care for his character in the book, but he's great in the film.
In one of our many emails, I think Sheldon summed up why Caspian works so well the best – it's because the filmmakers chose to "make Caspian, naïve, rather than whiney." And that subtle change makes all the difference in the world. Caspian comes across as stronger in the movie, more pro-active, not someone who just let's things happen to him. He's also self-involved at the most inopportune times. I like the fact that the film really played up the rivalry between Peter and Caspian. In the book Caspian just let Peter do everything without complaining or standing up for himself. Here Caspian calls Peter on his sometime "arrogance." The writers Andrew Adamson (screenplay), Christopher Markus (screenplay), and Stephen McFeely took the best of C.S. Lewis' work and expanded it to make it better. It's a shame that Peter and Susan won't be in the next film, because they will be missed. Everything about Prince Caspian is just right in terms of cinematography, scope and vision; the tone is dark but hopeful, and epic but intimate. While watching the battle scenes, the only thought going through my mind was, I hope the final Harry Potter film is a 10th as good as this was – . Bring on Eustace and Dawn Treader!

Weekend of debauchery in Holly for my very wanton girlfriend
Jadra Holly
First name: Djenette, Age: 41 yo, City: Holly (MI)
Since we work every day, we would like to give you an appointment on Saturday and preferably at our place or in a private club near Holly. We just want to enjoy ourselves together. This is why we post on this libertine site because we love meeting other guys at libertine parties. We love sadomasochism. The best is when I'm handcuffed so my husband can watch you fuck me and I moan in ecstasy. So we're just looking to have some fun with another couple. We are very knowledgeable. We hope to read your comments soon. Kisses.

I'm just waiting for a good lay like my poodle. I want to moan. You can make an appointment in the evening, but we prefer that the meeting takes place at our home. We have a lot of accessories. To reach us, you must send a message. We only want sex between couples.

Hello everyone, I am a nymphomaniac woman who is 39 years old and my name is Camila. I work in a flower shop. Other than that, I'm single because I want to have a good time with lots of guys. I love making love with a little naughty and directing it so that I go to seventh heaven. I'm very naughty to make you hard. I'm also quite good at lollipops. However, I am looking for a virile man for this sex date. I want a man who is younger than me. Otherwise I don't have any physical criteria. What I want is a man who's good in bed to make me scream during our future night together. The easiest way to have a date at my apartment for this libertine plan. Otherwise I'm available mostly during the day and rather during the week. I'm here to have fun with a guy who's not boring. If you're interested, then contact me.

First name: Niobe, Age: 35 yo, City: Holly (MI)
I'm available every night for this hookup. I would like to set up a first meeting at the restaurant so that we can get to know each other. Role-playing games are my priority. I therefore desire a lover who is creative in this respect to follow me in my scenarios and who invites me into his world and dreams. In my ideal, I would like the gentlemen who write to me to be brown and preferably tall. After that, the boy I'm looking for will have to be patient because I expect a lot from him sexually. I can stay in bed all day if my partner satisfies me. I want to have an intense night of sex with a cool guy. If you're interested, then contact me.

I would naturally want a lover who is imaginative on this point to guide me in my stories and who brings me into his universe and fantasies.

If you're interested, let me know. I would be happy to give you my email or phone number so we can talk. Big kisses.
Looking for an unfaithful young girl for a sex plan in a hotel on Holly

First name: Touriya, Age: 20 yo, City: Holly (MI)
Hi, my name is Touriya, I've been single for a week since I dumped my boyfriend because he was cheating on me. I'm here to meet a naughty guy. I want a boy who is open-minded. Looking for someone to go out to a swingers club in complete freedom. I'll be expecting you at the beginning of next week, but preferably in the morning. We can meet up wherever you want but somewhere around Holly. I really enjoy showing myself naked in the forest and having my picture taken. However, what really turns me on are encounters in atypical places (garages, bathrooms, etc.), so be creative with your locations in Holly. I'm looking for a night of intense sex with a nice guy. If you please, let me know. It will be a pleasure to give you my email or phone number so we can exchange. Big kisses.
