David Cook wins

WooHoo! David Cook wins American Idol. Although, both David's were awesome, Cook win by 12 million votes. I was somewhat surprised but pleased. His performance tonight with ZZ Top was fabulous. I enjoy watching the show with my daughter. It's the only reality show that I watch.

Graduation

Today, my daughter is graduating from 8th grade. She looked so beautiful when she left for school. It's so hard to believe she's going to be 14 and in high school next year. She's changed a lot in the last year and it's kind of sad. She's not my little baby anymore.

Moonlight!

Another complaint about tv programing. Can you believe they are canceling Moonlight after one season? It was my favorite new show. Mick is so hot! I hope another network picks it up.

I'm so sick of reality tv. The networks could cancel all of them and I wouldn't complain but they have to cancel the hot vampire show.

Bones

Anyone watch Bones last night? I love the show. Booth and Bones are great together however I really hated what they did with Zack. I liked Zack and I can't believe they are writting him out.

Inside Satin Seduction

This is an unedited excerpt of Satin Seduction.

Blurb:
How far will lingerie designed, Nicole James go to sell her new line to her studly boss? Jake Malone has desired the full-figured designer since their first meeting. Talking her into modeling her designs is just the first step in seducing her.

Excerpt:
He fingered the corset she’d thrown on his desk. “This corset is a satin blend?”

“Satin-Lycra blend. It’s comfortable, yet controls,” she explained. “Comfort and control are important ingredients for a full-figured line.”

“What else have you designed, besides the thong, of course?”

“I have three panties, the Brazilian-cut, a hip-hugger, the thong and a brief.”

“No granny panties?” He winked.

“Never!” She pretended to gasp in horror. “Banish the thought. I’ve also finished designs for another corset, a bustier and some night clothes.”

“You’ve been busy. Have you had anyone model them?” His brows rose. “We need to test the comfort and control.”

Biting her lip, she hesitated. “We don’t have larger models. I made them in my size.”

Picking up the thong, his fingers traced the lacy edge. “You’ve modeled these?”

“I tried everything on to test the comfort and fit. Those don’t actually offer control but…” She hesitated.

“They’re sexy as hell.” His eyes ran over her and a shiver rode her spine. “Are you wearing one of your creations now?”

Nicole laughed nervously.

Jake grinned in a way that would wet any red-blooded woman’s panties. “You said you’d never charge me with harassment.”

She raised her chin. “I meant it.”

“What are you wearing?”

Her tongued felt glued to the top of her mouth and she swallowed. “I’m wearing a slimming corset with support for…”

“Support for large-breasted women?” His gaze devoured her chest. She could almost believe he could see through her clothes.

“Yes.”

He crushed the thong in his hand. “What type of panty?”

“A ruffled Brazilian-cut,” she answered and was surprised how breathy her voice sounded.

“Damn,” he breathed the word as his eyes stripped her clothing from her body. “Can I talk you into modeling them for me?”

13 things about Atkins low-carb diet. I’m well into my second week on the diet. Below is a list of things about the diet and my experience with it.

1. I’ve lost ten pounds. It’s all water weight but ten pounds is ten pounds.

2. I had to give up Mountain Dew. Pout.

3. You aren’t supposed to have caffeine but I have one cup of half the caffeine coffee a day.

4. You have to eat too much meat.

5. I miss fruit. Inductions Stage (the first two weeks) doesn’t allow fruit.

6. I usually do the Induction Stage longer than two weeks. You lose the most weight in this stage.

7. I have done this diet before, several times. Sometimes, I’ve had great results, other times I didn’t last a week.

8. When you first start the diet, you have no energy.

9. It involves a lot of cooking, therefore a lot of cleaning up – Urgh!

10. You need to take vitamin supplements with this diet especially potassium.

11. My favorite treat is sugar free, black cherry Jello.

12. I’m trying to lose weight before my vacation at the end of June.

13. It’s not so hard to follow if you stay home but it’s difficult for me if we go out.



I’m off to make my breakfast. I miss just being able to grab a muffin and go. Sigh! Hopefully, the end result will be worth it.

Tragedy at the Derby

Oaks Day, the day before the derby ended up a total wash. It poured all afternoon and the track was a muddy mess but still the races went on even if half the crowd left. Derby Day was clear and cool, much improved from the day before. Unfortunately, a perfect day for racing was forever marred by Eight Belles breaking both of her ankles during cool down after finishing second in the Derby.

Big Brown won in grand fashion and he deserves praise but the whole day was ruined for me when the Filly was euthanized on the track after the horrific accident.

It was just two years ago, when Derby winner Barbaro broke a leg while running in the Preakness. Since, it was only one leg they did all they could to save him but eight months after the accident he too was euthanized.

Growing up in Louisville, I've spent much time at the track but these incidents have certainly put a pall over horse racing for me.
