I’m not sure where I found this photo, but I love it.

Kid Walking 2.0

Remember the 18-year-old, high school senior who passed by me in his dress clothes and tie a couple of weeks ago? This is what he looks like most of the time when he walks to the bus stop.

Love This!

Everything about this photo turns me on… a beefy/furry guy, white socks, and a cute little brown-and-white dog.

For No Particular Reason: Baseball

Well, it’s spring, why not show a photo of a hot guy playing baseball?

Rosalyn Carter’s Strawberry Bundt Cake

I don’t have a lot planned for this pending 3-1/2 day weekend. It occurred to me that I should impetuously jump on a plane and go somewhere, but I never got around to making plans. And then I agreed to watch one of my model’s dogs.

Then I remembered that my friend Annette once told me about Rosalyn Carter’s Strawberry Bundt Cake. I might have to make this over the weekend. (I found the recipe on the website of the Beekman Boys, which makes me want it even more.)

Prep time: 20 Min
Cook time: 1 Hour
Total time: 1 Hour 20 Min

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 (18.25 ounce) box yellow or white cake mix (We used yellow. White probably would have resulted in a nicer color.)
• 1 small box strawberry gelatin
• 3/4 cup vegetable oil
• 1 cup chopped walnuts (Optional. We did not use.)
• 4 eggs
• 2 tablespoons flour
• 1 (10 ounce) package frozen sliced strawberries, thawed,
• or 1 pint fresh berries sprinkled with 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/2 pint heavy cream, whipped
• Confectioners sugar for dusting finished cake

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 350F. Butter a 10″ Angel Food Cake or Bundt pan.

In bowl of stand mixer, combine cake mix, gelatin, oil, nuts, eggs, flour and strawberries. Beat on medium speed until blended. Pour batter into pan and bake for 50 minutes – one hour, or until tester comes out clean.

Cool for 15 minutes, invert onto rack.

Dust with confectioners sugar, and top with lightly sweetened whipped cream.

Tilda Swinton for Chanel

Actress Tilda Swinton is the chosen face for Chanel’s new couture Paris-Edimbourg collection. These images are taken by Karl Lagerfeld. It’s getting to the point that I adore this woman in photos more than I like her movies. [Click to enlarge.]

The Burden of Knowledge

This work of art is called The Burden of Knowledge, and it’s by Vanessa Vieira. I found this on one of my favorite recent finds, a site called Infernal Deity of a Psychotic Mind – The Silence Within. [Click to enlarge.]

Well, Would You?

When I’m bored at a stoplight, I watch the cars passing in the opposite lane and play a game in my head called, Would You Suck His Dick?

I win the game if:

1. More of the cars that pass contain male drivers than female drivers, and
2. I vote “yes” more often than “no”
