Mistress Cooks...Adult 'Crisp Rice Cereal Treat' squares
Hello readers; today's adult content has very little to do with sex and everything to do with food & 'herbs'. I have recently become a convert to the use of a vaporiser in order to extract cannabinols & cannabinoids from marijuana. I like the vaporiser because you don't negate the health benefits of the cannabis by turning it into a carcinogenic substance! I had also heard that the leftover vaporised weed, or 'vapor poo', could be used to produce high grade 'budder'. Well, dear readers, I can confirm that to be extremely accurate information, and wow are my hands big...
Here's what I did.
Here's what I did.
- I melted 2 sticks of butter at a very low temperature on the stove.
- I poured about 10 grams of vaporised weed into the melted butter.
- I let the vape and the butter simmer together for 2 hours.
- I poured the butter mixture through my finest sieve. After I scraped all the gunk out of the saucepan, I pressed it through the sieve to extract as much butter as possible. The resulting budder was a deep greenish colour.
- I melted the rest of the butter on medium into a bigger deeper pot. I poured the budder in and whisked the two together.
- I turned up the heat and started adding marshmallows. I stirred constantly until I had a good consistency of marshmallow/budder mixture. Then I started pouring in the Crisp Rice Cereal. Once I had it all stirred together, I pressed it into the pan.

Being Beautiful
I am beautiful.
I tell Myself this dozens of times a day, because Society constantly conspires to tell Me that I can't be. After all, I am over 40 and bigger than a size 2! However, I stopped trying to stuff Myself into a societal pigeonhole some time ago, and I determined that beauty was a state of being, not just how I looked. When I am presenting Myself to the world, I do so with the attitude in my mind and my heart that I am beautiful, and being dressed to the nines and in full makeup does the same thing for me that putting an oil painting into a stunning frame does for a landscape. It showcases it so the world can see its beauty for themselves. Sometimes I see other women in the grocery store, and I recognise Myself in them. Tired, overweight, unhappy; careless in their appearance because it is so much easier. It doesn't have to be, and it doesn't have to be an onerous task. I can do my face in under 10 minutes and feel so much better about Myself, and it takes minimal effort.
MY favourite new beauty product is the BB creams that are sweeping into the marketplace, and I understand why...This single product is a foundation, sunscreen, primer, and all kinds of things rolled into one. If My face is a canvass, then this BB cream is the Gesso that preps it to create the masterpiece. Because I am concerned about under-eye circles and how thin My lips are, I always use just a little cover-up under My eyes and over My natural lip line. The BB cream brand I use currently is called "CathyCat'; it's imported from Korea. I swear it's why Korean women all have such beautiful skin! Now I have flawless looking skin, there are only 3 things I need to do; eyes, cheeks, lips.
I don't bother with full eye makeup for daytime usually, unless I am preparing for a visitor. Otherwise, it's just mascara and eyebrow pencil; what could be easier? The hardest part is the eyeliner, because I am getting shortsighted. I have to stand closer to the mirror to do the deep black eyeline look I love. Having the right liquid eyeliner product helps. The L'Oreal eyeliner I use has quite a long thin brush, so I can get the line right in three stages. First, I lay the line from the middle of My eyelid to the outer corner. Then, I reverse the brush and go towards the very inner edge with the thinnest line I can get. Finally, I wing out the outer edge to emphasise the almond cats'eye effect. On My cheeks, I use a little MAC creme blush right on the 'apples'. That takes 30 seconds, but it brightens Me right up. For lips, I use a lipliner slightly outside My natural lipline. After I fill that in, I use a lipstick in the same colour family all over. Done!
And when it takes Me under 10 minutes to look this good, why would I skip it?

Your Perfect Fantasy Domme...
Here I am...Mistress Erica through Partner's eyes
When We first moved into this house, the lamp in the backyard was there, but it didn't work. It also had white lightbulbs in it. When Partner decided he was going to make it work, he rewired it completely. Once he had it working, the first improvement he had to make was the red lightbulbs. That was over a year before I began my current profession; it was a really silly joke then to do with Amsterdam, but not to do with Me!
I have been an avid photographer for a very long time; I have never been able to interest Partner in learning how to use it...until now. I have given him a subject he is interested in photographing; Me! Apparently, he has some aptitude for erotic photography; after all, it is a subject He has been studying since the early 1970s. Now all we have to do is get him to blunt his tongue when He sees a picture He feels is less than flattering;
"Oh, you can't use that one...look at the ugly face you're making"
*SMACK!*

Food for Thought, pt. 1
I think a lot about food.
I think I am finally able to be more confident about some of my more sensualist tendencies (ok, ok, they're kinks and fetishes!) including that I sometimes enjoy combining really delicious tastes and textures with my fondling, kissing and teasing. Yes. I went there.
Last weekend, I told my pet toad to bring me really good chocolates. They had to be dark chocolates, no coconut, no alcoholic flavourings. He hit the nail on the head with dark chocolate coated Himalayan sea salt caramels. Mistress was pleased. It was delightful to curl up against him, post-orgasm, and eat chocolates, while he held me with his single free arm. It was delightfully indolent. And the caramels were delectable too.
(For those of you familiar with my hometown, they come in that delightful purple and gold wrapper...)
I like to enjoy good food. I'd like to say that's how I got fat, but that's not it, and that isn't a story I feel like telling here and now. Right now, I'm trying to say something positive about eating healthy (which is really what I did to go from a size 24 to a 12...) and how eating healthy fuels how I feel about every aspect of Myself. Since I have spent a lot of time over the past week thinking about "How do I want to be seen as a domme?", I thought I would post some of the tips I used to get healthy and active and ALIVE at 45 years of age. I would like to have My submissives view Me as someone who is helping them to express their sexuality in a judgement free atmosphere, and who is also helping to coach, train, mentor and improve them, just as a truly devoted submissive is a learning tool for a good Dominant. A muse, as it were. So, here is the first in a series of posts about food, nutrition, diet, etc.
I think a big reason I always lose so much weight in the summer months is the prevalence in my local markets of cheap watermelon at this time of year. I can buy a whole seedless watermelon for $5, then let it sit at room temperature for a few days. This helps the watermelon to finish the process of converting sunlight into sugar, and the result is a much sweeter melon. If you like, you can even ripen one on the counter, then put it into a cool dry place (garage? basement?) for a few days before you take the next step.
I hate eating watermelon. It's messy and inelegant: spoils my makeup right down my face! When I first met Partner, he introduced me to the idea of watermelon mining. He likes to take a big wedge shaped piece and eat it with a spoon, scooping out a section at a time until all that is left is the ripest reddest flesh. (The center meat of the watermelon, where all those concentrated sugar juices are the richest.) Watermelon is excellent for helping flush out all those toxins in the system. There are healthy sugars too: it is sweet enough to curb Partner's diabetic sweet tooth cravings in a much healthier way than chocolate, cookies or anything else he might want. Better, but still messy. Here's what I like to do:
I cut the bottom end off first. Then the top. Then I carve away all the rind, plus any of the bitter white pith. Finally, I slice it vertically, horizontally, and pile it into a large container in the fridge. I have all the watermelon chunks I want for 2 days or so. Then I put another one into the garage!

Mistress and Kitten
God, what a day.
Olivia took a deep breath in and tried to relax as she completed a tricky lane change after merging onto the highway. Seeing a chance, she shot through across 2 more lanes into the commuter-only lane, blithely ignoring the 2 passengers or more rule. In her sleek hybrid, she could get away with it; in this classic convertible, not so much. Gunning the Thunderbird's big V8, she easily passed a lumbering dump truck that should have been hugging the outside lane and dropped in behind an empty cab.
I have got to move closer to the office, she grimaced, scrolling through her playlists for something soothing. This commute is killing me! At least when I get home, I'll have Kitten to snuggle with. A few minutes with her curled up in my lap, and everything will seem better.
She watched carefully to ensure she didn't miss her exit; the next one was on the far side of a bridge of a world's record length. That would just add to all the stress she was carrying; the stress she was aching to relieve. The stress that Kitten was going to alleviate. She thought of Kitten tangled in the bed sheets, and smiled.
Once Kitten gets me relaxed, it will all have stopped mattering. She'll be waiting at the door when I walk in, and leap on me the minute my coat is off. I'll take her to the couch with me and we can settle in for the night together. As her exit approached, Olivia felt happier than she could remember than any night in recent memory. Taking Kitten in had certainly been the right decision. She remembered how the poor little thing had looked when she found her near the dumpsters behind her elegant condo. Kitten had been thin and weak from not eating properly, and sick from being out in the cold without anyone to protect her, but nothing worse, thank God. Kitten's enormous eyes had looked up at Olivia from what she had been eating (trash pulled from the dumpster, she remembered with a shudder) and she was lost. She had scooped Kitten up and taken her directly upstairs. She had taken Kitten into her apartment and set her down on the couch. Olivia had gone into the bathroom to fill the bathtub. She had turned around suddenly to find Kitten right behind her and she had nearly frightened them both half to death.
At long last, Olivia turned into her driveway. She pulled the enormous fuel hogging T-bird into its parking spot and locked it up. She grabbed her coat from the seat, pulled her briefcase out of the back and set off to the front door. Her high heels clicked smartly on the paving stones on the pathway. As she reached for the doorknob, she realised how very happy she was. She slid her key into the lock and turned the handle.
There she was...Kitten! All eyes, adoring, on Olivia.
Olivia set down her bags, hung up her coat, turned on one elegant heel, and held out her arms. Like a shot, Kitten was in them, snuggling up to Olivia. She rubbed her face against Olivia's, delighted to see her home again. Olivia walked carefully in her high heels to the living room couch, Kitten in her arms. She settled back against the couch before she pulled Kitten's mouth to hers for a long deep kiss...
Did you miss Me today, Kitten? Olivia breathed.
"Oh, yes, Mistress I did", Kitten sighed.

Fa...fa...fa...fa...fashion!
One of the most exciting things about a new 9-5 job is the knowledge that I will be able to add to My wardrobe soon. Really, I think that's what I find the most difficult part of this temporary cash poor situation; I cannot afford to indulge Myself as I should be indulged! My hair should always look freshly coloured; My hands and My feet should be groomed and My nails should be done, but there are priorities! Day to day living expenses need to come first at the moment, but that doesn't mean a Lady can't do the best with what she has, does it?
The freedom that I find in shopping now is delightful. When I was a BBW, I didn't always do the best with what I had, but a lot of the time I was quite ill. Now, knowing I can walk into almost any store and find things that suit My personality, My style and My figure, shopping is a joy. That is, it is a joy when I can afford to do it. In the meantime, I dream up outfits for Myself on Polyvore (under a different account).
Now that I am a regular size (12/14 for those of you paying attention), I am a lingerie devotee. I love to wear something lacy and sexy beneath the most ordinary of My clothes; I'm sure many of you sissies out there know what I mean. I enjoy feeling sexual, so I like my sexy undies! Since I discovered how sexy My bottom looks framed by a garter, I think I have only worn pantyhose on a few occasions. If I wear a skirt and garters with My heels, and I am on public transit, I get the chance to 'accidentally' let My skirt ride up so the edge of my stockings and the bows on my garters are showing, and if I should need to cross My legs...Did I mention I almost never wear panties?
I also love high heels. I am not a tiny woman, standing 5'8" in my bare feet, but I do love a nice high heel. My calves are thicker than I wish they were: high heels lengthen the look. I especially love the slimming effect on My calves of My OTK boots (a gift from a favourite pet), and so I wear them every chance I get! I am delighted to see really FEMININE shoes coming back into fashion, in bright prints and colours, too. I like a fairly pointed toe but it has to have a long enough toebox (heeehee toebox sounds dirty...says My inner 12 year old). That's why I LOVE Nine West shoes; their lasts are perfect for My feet, although some styles are sized differently than others! My patent leather MaryJanes with the 4.5 inch heel are a 9.5; black suede booties with the 5 inch heel are 8.5 and I can still take them off without undoing the zipper up the back! I just had the heel caps replaced so they will enjoy many more months of wear, but first, I'll need some new Spring heels! Floral prints to wear with bright solids; solid pastels to wear with prints. I've already got my Spring stockings: they are WHITE fishnets! I am never going bare-legged in the Springtime again! I am looking forward to some pretty Spring dresses (and perhaps a new suit or two?): it might even be enough to get Me motivated to take out My jewellery tools again and make Myself some accessories!
What do you think I should treat Myself to next paycheque?
