My tummy was hurting the other night, and my Master bought me some very yummy ginger beer to help it. But then I noticed the logo, a little stem ginger person, and had to giggle, because I cannot see a knobbly “ginger root” anymore without getting as giggly as a schoolgirl….
Their ginger hot tips are quite useful — and amusing — to devotees of figging!
Purchasing Fresh Ginger
When shopping for fresh ginger, look for pieces with a plump, smooth, somewhat shiny skin. If its wrinkled or cracked, the ginger is drying and past its prime. Never substitute dried ground ginger for fresh. It simply doesn’t taste the same.
Storing Fresh Ginger
Fresh ginger will get moldy in the refrigerator. It’s best to store it at room temperature much like you would potatoes. Ginger will eventually sprout little buds. These are considered a pungent delicacy in many parts of Asia. Just pinch them off and enjoy. Some people freeze their ginger, although we don’t recommend it as it alters the flavor. [Zille note: it doesn't seem to get in the way for figging, however, which is handy!] Others store their fresh ginger in dry sherry or Madeira in the refrigerator for up to 3 months. The ginger will impart some of its flavor to the wine, but that’s a minor disadvantage when weighed against having peeled ginger ready and waiting to be used. The ginger-flavored wine can be used in stir-fry dishes, salad dressings, sauces, etc.
Preparing Fresh Ginger
To prepare fresh ginger, peel only the skin of this knobby-looking rhizome (an under-ground stem). Use either a vegetable peeler or sharp knife. One ginger fan suggests scraping off the skin with an ordinary spoon. “It works great and it seems like you don’t lose so much of the good stuff.” Depending upon your recipe, fresh ginger may be sliced, diced, minced, grated, shredded or juiced.
Ginger as an Aphrodisiac
If you’d like to whip up a recipe loaded with aphrodisiacs, try a recipe that calls for ginger, cinnamon and cloves - spices traditionally used for their ability to inspire amour. Ginger’s aphrodisiacal properties are tough to prove, but ginger does enhance circulation and has been credited through history with increasing lustful yearnings.
Hmmm, aphrodisiac properties, you say? “Increasing lustful yearnings”? I’d have never thought of that!
Anyway, I hope they don’t mind me linking to them, and you should buy their gingery good products, because they are very tasty, and they seem like a very good company who should be supported!
A number of people have been coming by this blog looking for “MRI sex,” undoubtedly because of the MRI blowjob picture I posted a while ago.
So, if you’ve been looking for that, here is a great link for MRI sex images. Although, sadly, it’s only missionary position (doggie style would seem more useful, to me!) but it does show how a woman’s uterus changes during orgasm, so that’s cool!
But it does open up a number of obviously overlooked scientific studies … MRI images of spankings, caning, figging…. The difference between a tawse and slipper, as shown by MRI results…. You name it, the study of spanking hasn’t even properly begun!
Now where are the spanko scientists out there?! Currently, there’s just crap like this out there. Although this is a nice rebuttal. But still, they are only studies about spanking children, which most spankos are only interested in when they are discussing their own childhood experiences. Where are the studies about spanking consenting adults, I ask you?!
(This post was supposed to go up last night. But we had a power outtage, and by the time the power came back, we were ready to start celebrating. So here, slightly belatedly but still relevant, it is….)
I’m back home! Yay! The holidays were good, and New Years Eve tonight promises to be very good — we have three bottles of our favorite champagne, some (rather expensive) caviar, smoked salmon (with sour cream and choice of cucumbers or watercress), olives, cucumber salad, and some excellent chocolate for later nibbling. And I’m hoping my Master will ring in the new year upon my bottom!
Now he’s having a preparatory nap (we’re both a bit worn out from travel and a very hectic holiday week) and I’m trying to catch up with all my friends! Here’s a selection of the tabs I have open in my browser right now….
First, a lovely commercial:

Sorry I didn’t send out good wishes from my Master and me on the 25th, but I didn’t get on the computer all day! We are having a very good time with my family, actually, which is lovely.
Here, to make up for it, are some very amusing rewritten holiday tunes:
Jingle Bells
Whipping on the back
With a horsewhip that can flay
Hear the bottom yell
Screaming all the way
Bells on his tits ring
Make my spirits bright
Oh, what fun it is to whip
A writhing slave tonight
Oh, jingle bells
Whack his balls
Make the poor slave pay
Don’t forget, he gave his nuts to you on Christmas Day
Joy to the World
Joy to the world
My Master’s cum
Let me receive the same
Let every hole
Prepare him room
He’s ramming in his fist
He’s ramming in his fist
He’s ramming,he’s ramming
In his fist
He rules my world
With fear and pain
And makes me always prove
The glories of His righteousness
And wonders of His love
And wonders of His love
And wonders of His love
And wonders, and wonders of His love
Finally, here’s some pictures from Friday night. My Master and I went out to a combination art show and bondage performance. I’m sitting in the background in a number of these pictures, and in all of them, I manage not to be looking at the performance (and I look bored out of my mind, as well!) Really, it was a lovely and unique performance (the rigger suspended the model — and they were BOTH wearing blindfolds!) and I had a great time seeing Lochai , Miss Maggie Mayhem, Thomas Roche, and a number of other cool friends — just perfect to see friends and have a little taste of the local kink scene before going home and dealing with family!
Oh! And since I’m actually posting on a Sunday (my Master is lost to the world, working on the new server he’s building), I get to join in with the My Bottom Smarts Spanko Brunch #153. The question today is:
Have you any special spanking-related plans or wishes for this holiday season? Are there any noteworthy gifts or events in your plans? If not, what would you like to be getting or doing?
Well, we will be stuck at my parent’s house for Christmas, so any spankings that occur will have to be done very quietly – and I’m not generally known for being quiet, so if he does spank me, he has to gruffly order me not to make any noise – and I have to beg to stuff my face in a pillow!
This year there are no directly-related spanking gifts – when we have those, we open them at home before we leave (and of course, try them out!)
One of the best I’ve ever given him was a Weighted Bookmark that has the words, “Regard the weight of words rather than their number” (Cicero) stamped in the leather. I figured it applied not just to words, but to spanks, as well! It’s a good, if nasty, little spanking tool, and very portable – yet is not obviously a spanking implement (except to spankos, who would never use it for anything else!)
But, happily, we will be home in time for New Years, and my perfect way to celebrate it would be for us to drink a lot of champagne (several bottles of our favorite brand have already been laid in!) and have sex and spankings all night long – how better to ring in the New Year?!
So, what do you guys think of this shoot? In the first place, do you like seeing sex with your spanking, or do you just want spankings? And what about the use of the electro-play buttplug and vibrator in the shoot — is that hot, or does that break up the “Cinéma vérité” for you? (Of course, they do explain that it’s a “science project,” so they at least get points for trying!) Do you like seeing schoolgirls treated like that, or do you just want them to be lectured, spanked, and sent home for a strappin from their father?
I guess what I’m saying is … do you like this more extreme version of schoolgirl scene, or would you prefer it Janus Magazine style?
Well, no, that’s not true. I’m a greedy little girl and want lots of things! But I would really love to find The Vintage Erotica Collection under the tree! (But I don’t particularly want my family to buy it for me for obvious reasons.) My friend Maggie Mayhem reviewed it over on her blog, saying:
“I’m a bit of a retro-sexual. I’ve always loved porn from yesteryear, especially when it comes from the silver age of cinema.
It’s easy to think we discovered sex or at the very least perfected it. It’s hard enough to think of our parents having sex let alone our grandparents. Maybe I’m a bit odd in that I can’t get enough of vintage porn. I’m not really alone. [...]
I enjoy a good moving picture though, even if it isn’t a talkie. I really liked Vintage Erotica Anno 1920. Released by Cult Epics, it is an incredible collection of mostly French erotic films. They do feature hardcore sex and some pretty sexy fetish scenes as well. If you’re looking to build up a collection of the origins of porn as we know it, it’s a really good place to start. You can buy by the decade as well and watch the trends and evolution of filmed sex.
What I really enjoyed about this film is the whimsy behind much of the porn and the willingness to cross genres. Most contemporary porn is put into individual categories and can be very single minded. This is fantastic if you’re just looking for anal sex, lesbian porn, bondage, pissing (and hey, we all get a one track mind sometimes) but what about those times when you want your porn to dip its toes into several genres at once? In many of the flicks in this DVD you’ll find a blending of sex acts.
The movies featured in this DVD are what kick started porn in America. “The Valley” in Los Angeles, CA did not always have the distinction of being the porn capital of the world. Everything sex used to come out of Paris, France. Aside from beating back the nazis, American soldiers brought back “French postcards” as well as memories of the reels shown in the brothels. The result was a chain reaction leading to the establishment of the site you’re looking at right now.
I do recommend this DVD and the ones that follow it in succession if you can get your hands on a copy. I certainly enjoyed it and it’s the kind of thing I force my friends to sit through as well so naturally I’m telling you all about it.”
I was going to do a different post today, but then I found this video on YouTube, which has to be the most hysterical “presentation on BDSM” ever. It was done by 19 year old “band geek who loves anime.” I’m hoping that for this student, English is a second language….
Please note,
This is a alternative genre presentation I made for my English class. This is not meant to bring too much enjoyment in anyones life. This is strictly for my English project.
So, make sure when you watch it that it does not bring too much enjoyment to your life!
What I love most is that while “not everyone in the lifestyle is a swinger” (which is, uh, true, because very few of my kinky friends would ever describe themselves as a “swinger,” prefering the term “polyamorous”) time is taken to explain that “swinger means someone who goes from partner to partner, not really having a solid relationship.” It is also, in the student’s opinion, “creepy.”
Wow! Really?! I think someone got a bit lax with their studying of alternative lifestyles, here. Because most swingers would really see themselves as people in commited relationships, who like to swap partners with another commited couple, or add a friend to join in their “solid” fun. The only people I know who go “from partner to partner,” are the serial monogamists who date person after person, sometimes ending their last relationship by cheating on their old partner with the new partner!
But hey, at least the views on BDSM, while very amusing, are mostly positive. It’s just like watching a really clueless anthroplogist studying a culture that he doesn’t understand in the slightest, and making all of these very self-confident statements that are, while not being entirely wrong, certainly not indicative of the least amount of comprehension!
Last night’s dreams were of the very kinky variety, which I simply do not get enough of. From my point of view, every time I close my eyes in sleep I should get a pervy porn film projected on the backs of my eyelids. My subconscious, however, seldom indulges me.
The dream started with me being some sort of camp counselor, and all the “campers” were girls who were doing “puppy play” as Alaskan sled dogs, and they were being harnessed up to pull a sled in some sort of kinky Iditarod. As this progressed, it turned out that I had been in charge of this last year, and this year they had put another counselor in charge (I don’t know why my new job was), and I was feeling most put-out about it all. I was giving the new counselor explicit instructions on how to train the “pups,” including such helpful tips as, “If they try talking like humans, put really big gags in their mouths,” and, “Beat them with a heavy paddle until they whimper like dogs.”
Heh. When I switch from masochist to sadist, I don’t do it by halves!
My Master got out of bed at this point, and I begged to be allowed to sleep in, and he kindly let me out of my morning tasks of making him breakfast and tea, and putting together a lunch in a brown paper bag. I went back to dreamland…. Read the rest of this entry »
My friend, the supercool Deja Black, is studying for finals, and thusly is procrastinating by doing anything but. She made a collection of LOLscenes (like LOLcats, but BDSM related) and she chose two from the shoot we did together!
Iz dis not teh awesum?
You can find this set over at The Spirit’s Studios (An all schoolgirl spanking website.)
Holy Babbling Fuck OK, you the members, asked for this. Happy New Year! I thought I would start the year off with screaming orgasms... There is something very sexy when a beautiful woman's face is contorted in a powerful orgasm -- but Darling just takes the cake & will FUCKING BLOW YOU AWAY. She also has this funny thing her brain does as she is coming again & again; it sort of goes into schizoid mode, & nothing intelligible or coherent is able to get past her sexy lips. This beautiful, sexy woman is someone who has an on/off switch which sometimes gets stuck.... She tells me it is either on or off, but with this week's update I tried to blow the fuse & see if I could burn out the switch. Well she got the best of me, sort of.... ;-) She never gave in, but the day has just so many hours, & we really didn't want to go into overtime shooting her screaming, babbling orgasms all through the night. This shoot is also for the tickle torture fans out there. The only thing that was more of a turn-on for me was distracting Darling in mid-orgasm with a bit (really a lot) of tickle torture. Now some people say laughing has no place in bdsm; please do tell me what you think after you watch this update... If you still have a problem with the idea that tickling has no place in torture, try asking Darling as she tries to catch her breath.For the moment there is a problem with the zip download for wmv versions of the videos. You CAN still right click/save on them as well as download the mp4 zip versions. We are working on getting them up ASAP.
Carrie is a yoga instructor who would never have imagined seeing herself in the studio mirror like this. Tied to her exercise bar & fucked with vibrating dildos and stretched with an ass hook, Carrie is taught a few new poses...
Christina Carter is a name closely associated with laughing, screaming, cursing orgasms and this update will be sure to keep her reputation intact. She just can't keep her mouth shut when it comes to following directions and speaking civil. This week you will follow Christina as she tries to behave but still just ends up being a brat and being punished for it over & over again... Like she really minds ;-)
Let me tell you of a story about a woman named Tawni Ryden. Tawni may look sweet & innocent but when Matt & Lew challenge her to a no holes barred bondage fest she needs to be climbed on to keep her down. Her orgasms are so powerful the men are in peril for their gonads. Follow along with us as we show you the non stop, non break, non gentle, rope and cum fest. From start to finish Tawni is tested to the limits of her endurance and in the end, almost wins out against the two veteran riggers.
Sasha comes to us straight from the Casting Couch. Once we saw her CC shoot we knew she would be perfect for HT. Watch as she goes from being "just a local girl" to being a hot, screaming orgasm star. Sasha is local as well as being a lifestyle player who knows what she likes and knows how to enjoy it. Her memory may not be all that sharp during the shoot from what we put her through but she, as well as all of us, will remember this one for a very long time.
