The Latest Meme

I love the latest meme, created by Ella, and finally have a chance to share it with you.

1. Name a tender song that can almost make you cry.
Crazy by Patsy Kline.  It's corny but sweet.

2. What is your favourite shade of lipstick? and nail polish? If you don't wear either what do you like or dislike about the shades you see others wear?
I don't wear either, and I don't particularly care for very bright or dark colours on others. I prefer a natural look.

3. Name a children's nursery rhyme or song that you loved and to which you can remember all the words.
I must confess I can remember all of them. I don't have a particular favourite but I enjoy their historical significance and political meanings.

4. What outfit would you put on in the morning if you wanted to feel happy and well dressed?
Dress slacks and a nice t-shirt or sweater.

5. If you had enough money to buy just one, would it be a cottage by the ocean or a cabin in the mountains?
A cottage in the country, with a big garden.

6. If you are old enough, which one of the Beatles did you have a thing for? If you are not that old, tell us a musician that really did it for you.
George, always! I had a giant poster of the fab four, and I kissed him goodnight every evening.

7. Name a smell you love, your choice.
Lilacs. that takes me back ot my childhood home, where lilac bushes lined the yard. I also love the smell of Pierre Cardin cologne. It reminds me of my early days with Ron.

8. How often do you defuzz your legs? Wax, razor or electric?
Every 2-3 weeks. I use an Epilady, and the hair grows back very slowly after using it.


9. How  or why did you choose your blog name?
I was a big fan of the Harry Potter books at the time and saw a lot of myself in Hermione Grainger. I love alliteration so I chose an alliterative blog name.

10. What do you like to eat for breakfast? To drink? Tea or coffee?
My favourite breakfast is a bowl of Rice Krispies if I'm eating alone. My favourite for the two of us (Ron doesn's share my passion for Snap, Crackle or Pop) is toast with melted cheese. We both drink coffee for breakfast.

11. How many siblings do you have? Are you the oldest, youngest or in the middle?
None; I'm a singleton.

12. What is your favourite salad dressing?
I like Ranch dressing as a dip for raw veggies, and Italian on a green salad.

13. If you could sit next to anyone (alive) on a long plane trip who would you pick?
Bonnie would be a wonderful travelling companion.

14. Have you ever gone shopping just to cheer yourself up?
Oh yes, quite often. When I worked in an office, a lunchtime shopping trip was just the cure for a stressful morning.

15. If there is one thing that can make you lose your temper what would it be?
Stupid people, especially when that stupidity affects their pets.

16. Tell us about the best photo you have ever had taken.
A photo of my dog yawning. It was published in the local paper.

17. Have you ever gone skinny dipping and where?
No, not yet.

18. What do you like on your pizza? What don't you like?
I like a vegetarian pizza. I would never order that famous Canadian invention, the Hawaiian pizza with ham and pineapple on top of the tomato sauce and mozzerella.

Now it's your turn!

Recap: Spanko Brunch 2.0 for September 3

What has been your experience with fly swatters?

Simon: My Mistress did use a fly swatter on me once, unfortunately it snapped on the 2nd stroke so she switched to one of her more reliable implements. Some everyday implements look as though they would be good for spanking but in reality turn out to be disappointingly fragile. My bottom isn't that hard but we've had similar problems with shoehorns and rulers.

Amy: Can't say we've tried a fly swatter, though it seems like something worth exploring. I love the "vanilla" implements that easily make a debut without suspicion during everyday life. Big fan of any and all kitchen utensils, also enjoy (?) a small hardback book, a hanger, slipper, ping pong paddle... gosh, there are so many things! That'd be a good brunch question one week. "What non-spanking implements have you been spanked with?" Happy Labor Day weekend!

Thanks for the suggestion, Amy, and happy Labour Day to you too!

Roz: Hi Hermione, Happy Labour weekend!

We haven't tried a fly swatter, but I too love 'dual purpose' implements. Some of them can be a case of careful what you wish for though, especially some kitchen implements!

Sir Wendel: I was going to say “no, haven’t tried it” but then decided to buy one and give it a go. When I arrived home with the fly swatter I announce to the misses that she was getting an afternoon spanking. It was ok. It wasn’t sturdy enough to do a good job so I switched to the hand.

Wilma: I agree with Sir Wendal. I have been whacked by a fly swatter, and while the first one is startling and has a sting- the rest that followed were more humourous than effective. Humourous most likely because of the sound. I will admit though, that the front of the thighs and inner thighs found it a bit less funny. Mind you I find that to be the case with any implement used there. LOL

A.J.: Never have, but I'm only a hand spanker, at least until my hand starts to hurt.

NOTE: I wouldn't use one unless it was purposely bought for using on her tush and that only! If it's that other one in the pantry - too great a sanitary risk! Just sayin'....

Ronnie: We have two fly swatters (one shaped like a hand) P has used both but neither of them he found sturdy enough to do a good job. Once he used the hand shaped swatter after he had spanked me quite hard and it did get my attention.

Hermione: Three years ago I wrote a post about fly swatters, and included a picture of the "Sweet Swat" swatter with a telescoping handle. It somehow ended up in a drawer where it remained, forgotten, until last weekend when I was reorganizing. I displayed it on our rack of paddles (big mistake!) and naturally Ron spotted the new addition and had to try it out.

The little swatter packed one heck of a sting, it was like nothing I had ever felt. Ron couldn't understand my reaction. I had bought it, so why was I complaining? Needless to say, it's going back into hiding in the bottom drawer :)

Thank you all for sharing. Have a happy week!

Spanko Brunch 2.0 #192

Welcome, everyone, to our regular weekend brunch. Last week I had an interesting introduction to a common, vanilla implement that we tried for the first time, and I wonder if any of you have had a similar experience.

Have you ever used a flyswatter in a spanking session? If so, what did you think? How did it compare to other implements that you use? Will you try it again?

Please leave your response as a comment below. Once everyone has had a chance to speak, I will publish a summary of our discussion, and I promise I will share my own experience with you.

You Finished this Sentence

Hermione is the type of woman who ...

KDPierre: Hermione is the type of woman who would begin a sentence with: "Hermione is the type of woman who..." and be trusting enough to let her readers finish it...like I did just now.

Amy: Hermione is the type of woman who brings bloggers together with fun games and silly scenarios every single week... and we thank you!

Anon 1: Hermione is the type of woman who I wish I had in my life.

Ronnie: Hermione is the type of women who is a vital part of this community, lovely, fun, kind, helpful, trustworthy and I'm happy to call her my friend.

abby: Hermione is the the type of woman who we can take lessons from on how to get a spanking!

Hands63: Hermione is the type of woman I'd love someday to meet.

Katie: Hermione is the type of woman who uses kindness, hard work, diligence, creativity, and selflessness to help make Blogland the special place that it is for all of us.

I don't know how she does it all! Perhaps she needs to be awarded Hermione Granger's "Time-Turner". Then she would have a bit more time for some spanky business with Ron. Thank you for all that you do here, Hermione!


Katie, you guessed my secret!


Sam: Hermione is the type of woman who would laugh as she watched
my wife take a belt to my bare ass!


Leigh: Hermione is the type of woman who comes through in a pinch.

Jack: Hermione is the the type of woman who asks silly questions on her blog, and make it seem like it is fun to participate and in trying to answer them. (OK, I guess she is right - it is fun!). Thanks for the blog!

Roz: Hermione is the kind of woman who is an integral part of this community and brings bloggers together with her wonderful weekly posts. A kind and supportive friend we are lucky to have.


Enzo: Hermione is the type of woman who you start off having a pleasant afternoon drink with and by the end of the night laughing so hard beer/wine would be pouring out your nostrils.


Baxter: Hermione is the type of woman who really puts a lot of thought into her blog and makes every day enjoyable. Of course though we never hear a peep about her spankings. HINT HINT. Just kidding.

Baxter, I got the hint. Stay tuned.

Sir Wendel: Hermione is the type of woman who can always make me smile.


Hermione: Hermione is the type of woman who, if you knew her in real life,  you would never guess has a blog about spanking.


Wow! I am blushing after reading all the kind things you have said about me. I really didn't expect that. You, dear readers, are the reason I keep this blog ticking over day after day. Thank you all so much for being a part of my life.

Friday FAIL

There are some really stupid people walking upright among us. Here's a small selection.

 His girlfriend wasn't feeling well and asked him to bring home a thermomter.

 He thought his shirt would dry faster if he put it in the microwave.

 She used scissors to open the packaging of her new USB cable.

 He didn't want to lose the keys to his new padlock.

His wife asked him, "Is that theing really full of coffee?"

Whaddyasay, do they all deserve a spanking?
