It’s no secret that Daytime Soap Operas have the best dressed and hunkiest Men on Earth. Yes, I said it. They dress and undress well, hehe. They make sex look like a double chocolate devil’s cake with a chocolate ganache on top. That mean’s it’s good..LOL. Really good! Soap Opera Hunks could be killing someone in one scene, or wondering if they’re the babyDaddy of 3 different pregnant women, or in the middle of a mob-murdering spree, but there’s one constant factor, they look good.

Let’s start with tonight’s 35th Daytime Emmy’s co-Host, Cameron Mathison. This guy hold many jobs as a soap star, and hosts to so many shows but he’s also a devoted husband and father to 2 children

Cameron looks fit, armed with a smile to melt an erupting volcano (over exaggerating of course), a charming personality who makes women swoon, and a fashion sense to match the Hollywood stars like George Clooney, Brad Pitt, etc..

Whether he’s wearing a blazer over jeans, or a suit, or just plain tee & jeans with a donut in hand, Cameron Mathison will knock your socks off.

The Brave Men At The Sex and The City Pink Carpet Movie Premiere

Dexie Wharton — Wed, 28 May 2008 13:13:12 +0000

Sex and The City : The Movie has been dubbed as the chick flick of the year, or the universe if you ask all of the SATC fans, present company included . Even the Press has jumped into the bandwagon, could a women dominated movie make it into the Blockbuster’s list? Will SATC kick Iron Man, or Indiana Jones off of the top. I say the more the merrier. Men are just as part of the SATC phenomenon as much as the girls namely Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte and Miranda are. Sure they have their own lives, careers, clothes, shoes, but they also had Men. And lots of them, heh. So let’s not discount them yet, especially when they were also at the SATS Movie Premiere in NYC, on a pink carpet no less

What’s the point of this post? Isn’t it obivous? If these Men could watch Sex and The City : The Movie, either by themselves, or with their wives/gf, respectively, you could too. So unless your Lady has made plans to watch it with her girlfriends, surprise her by taking her to the theater yourself on May 30th. Suck it up. Don’t make her wait for the DVD. She’ll appreciate the gesture

Dexie Wharton — Tue, 20 May 2008 16:41:30 +0000

I know it’s only Tuesday and we usually do our Date Night Dish on Thursdays but I just scored the delicious recipe of Carrabba’s Mussels in White Wine Sauce that Country Music Star Vince Gill cooked for his wife Amy Grant so I figured I might as well share it with you. Besides, you need to watch the video and get the ingredients in advance that way you’ll be ready for your Friday’s romantic date-at-home .

Carrabba’s Mussels in White Wine Sauce

2 oz Olive Oil
1# Cleaned Canadian Mussels
1/4 Chopped yellow Onion
6 cloves Chopped Garlic
1 oz Pernod liquor
8 Basil Leaves chopped
6 oz Lemon Butter Sauce
Juice of 1 lemon

Heat oil in Sauté pan. Add Mussels, cover and cook until shells begin toopen about 2 minutes. Remove top and add garlic and onions and toss. Cover pan again and cook for 1 minute. Remove top and add remaining ingredients.Reduce heat for 2 minutes with top off. Place in bowl and serve.

Watch Carrabba’s Italian Grill co-founder Johnny Carrabba teaches Vince Gill how to cook Amy Grant’s favorite dish, Mussels in White Wine Sauce.

The mussels look so good I might cook it myself this weekend. Let me know how yours turn out. Hope your wife/gf likes it.

10 Sexy Things To Say To A Naked Woman

Dexie Wharton — Sun, 02 Mar 2008 16:29:32 +0000

Ever wondered what the right words are to say to a naked woman? If you’ve been with your partner for a long time, obviously, you’ve know what the 10 sexy things to say to a naked woman. A woman wouldn’t stay with a Wam-Bam-Thank-You-Ma’am kind of man. Well, confident, happy, committed, and mature Women anyway. Hmmmm, or maybe not. I don’t know. It depends which Woman I guess. I’d like to believe that once a women approaches the age of 30 that she’d prefer commitment over one-night-stands. But that’s just my “ideal” world, heh. So ignore me? . Anyhoooo, Men’s Health compiled a list and here’s what they have to say on the 10 Sexy Things A Man Should Say To A Naked Woman with my own comments of course.

1. “It’s Ok for Us To Go Slow”. Definitely. Ever heard of a thing called foreplay?

2. “This heart-shaped freckle on your right inner thigh is so beautiful“. Compliments. If she has no freckles, well, I’m sure you”ll find a cute feature to focus on.

3. “You“. I’m guessing coz some Women love to be the center of attention?

4. “You kiss great, _____” . Coz Women love affirmation that they’re doing good, perhaps?

5. “I’m going to take these off“. Yes, stop asking whether you should do something, be errr, dominant and just do it.

The rest after the fold……..

6. “You make me think dirty thoughts“. This could be a little tricky though. Some Women might not like hearing dirty things while in the middle of sex. So I guess it depends how well you know your lady.

7. “I want to make you feel good“. But of course. Women always comes first. *ahem*

8. “Next time, I’m going to take you on the hobbyhorse“. It’s called the “afterplay”. Just as relevant as the foreplay.

9. “You amaze me“. Again, with the compliments.

10. “Let me get back to you on that“. Ala Sean Connery on Entrapment. Rule #2, Never trust a naked woman. Women knows when they’re being BS’d. So don’t make commitments about going camping or going to Disney World with the family just because she’s naked in front of you. She knows better so be careful and honest. She’ll appreciate it more.

Well, there you go. I’m sure you guys have known these all along. If not, I hope the list helps .
