Welcome to Manic Monday Edition #1 -
founded by incredible Morgen, the brilliant force behind
It´s A Blog Eat Blog WorldThe first theme is


Most of you know I am blogging from Germany. My best “girl-friend” is named JENS - he´s a beautiful gay guy.

I guess this is the reason why the first thing coming up to my mind when I hear “cruising” is not sailing about on a pleasure trip -
a pleasure voyage on a ship, usually with stops at various ports.

It is the gay-slang usage of “cruising”: the act of walking or driving about a locality in pursuit of a partner for (often quick and anonymous) sex.

When talking about homosexuality (or better: sexualtity in general) I want to raise AIDS as a topic as well. What ever you do - protect yourself! Use condoms =)

My 1st Manic Monday presents the gay version of an Anti-AIDS commercial:

Sugar Baby Love

Thanks for stopping by,

And now…
… our moment of Homer J.:

Scully: Homer, we’re going to ask you a few simple yes or no questions. Do you understand?
Homer: Yes. (lie dectector blows up)

It´s my blogging-friend Desert Songbird´s birthday today, so please go and visit THE ICEBOX to show Desert Songbird some love!
She is one of the most warmhearted, humorous and caring persons I have ever met in the whole Blogosphere - a lovely work-from-home mother, wife, writer, singer and a sports- and shoe-crazy U2-maniac (LOL)-
She is an all-around jill-of-all-trades coming to all of us with wonderful musings from the desert.


Beautiful Day

Welcome to my 7th Saturday Photo Scavenger Hunt, Ladies and Gentlemen!
This week´s theme is “SILVER” - It´s jewelery-time!
The picture shows the rings we have chosen for your “little secret” beginning with “W” - ending with “edding” =)

How do you do justice to a moment which carries two people off into that exciting adventure called marriage and which is meant to last forever?

The rings are available @ JOOP!-stores which sell jewelery as well. I confess: The material is white gold, not silver, but I´m so excited and so deeply in love with Frank (and these rings LOL) I want to share our rings with you…Please sign up on Mr Linky and don´t forget to leave a comment!
One comment=one minute of excersise
Get me running! =)

Welcome to my 8th feast…

Feel free to nibble - I hope it´s tasty!


Appetizer (feat. wine: Château Myrat Primeur Cru Classé, vin blanc, 2005)

If you could take lessons to learn any musical instrument, which would you want to learn?

To make a long story short: I´d love to play a mean guitar… more precisely: bass guitar!




Soup (feat. wine: Mas de Daumas Gassac Primeur, vin blanc, 2006)

Have you ever mistaken a person for someone else?

I guess so, but it was not embarrassing enough I can remember… (like a friend of mine who has mistaken her boyf with another guy… and kissed the foreigner!)

I have been mistaken for someone else a few times because I´ve had a celeb look-a-like in a German Soap Opera a few years ago…


Salad (feat. wine: Ausejour Becot Grand Cru, Saint-Emillion AOC, 2000)

On a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being highest, how well do you keep secrets?


If you tell me a secret which is for my ears only I´ll give me a 10. I will never disclose any secret - no matter what happens. Not even torture (like titillation LOL) will worm this secret out of me.


Main Course (feat. wine: Geyser Peak, Cabernet Sauvignon, Sonoma County, California, 1997)

What’s the closest you’ve ever been to a dangerous animal?

This morning! There was a wild tiger sleeping on our couch - being the fearless person that I am I even touched and feeded it! =)


Dessert (feat. wine: Corton Charlemagne, vin blanc, 2005)

When was the last time you lost your patience?

Yesterday - I had to contact the so-called “hotline” of our internet-provider in order to report a(nother) technical breakdown. It took about 30 minutes to follow the menu (”If you are calling because of BLAH-BLAH-BLAH press 1″ - …) until I reached the point “technical problems - internet” and the topic “connection failure”. After being placed on hold for another 20 minutes, listening to annoying background music, I recieved the message: “All lines are busy right now. Please try again later or use our ONLINE (!!!) SERVICE CENTER for free!”

Arrrrgh!!! Enough said =)

I hope you enjoyed my feast! Please don´t forget to leave a comment - I need a double dose of daily exercise after guzzeling this feast =)

Thanks for stopping by,

And now…
… our moment of Homer J.:

Homer: I want the answers now or eventually!
