One good Cirque deserves another.

If you'll recall, for my Birthday (back in March) my Man got tickets for the new Cirque du Soleil show 'Kooza' . The show was on April 25th and I posted a few times about the whole thang (here, here and here.)

Anywho... how can you top such a great birthday gift? Well I don't think you can, but you can come close...

So, tonight I'll be taking Didier out for a mini Birthday Dinner at our Fav Mexican joint, MI BURRITO, and then we're off to the Just For Laughs Festival. We'll try and catch the parade, and then we have tickets to Cirque La Clique. They are apparently incredible, a combination of Circus and Burlesque. Decidedly 'ADULT'. A bit risqué, titillating and naughty. They were at last year's JFL and were a smash hit, and added a couple extra shows at the end of the festival. This year they are showing DAILY for 3 weeks going beyond the start and finish of the actual festival itself.

I'm not sure is we're allowed to take pics, but I'll be taking my camera and a mini tripod (fits in your pocket) and will turn the flash off... so cross your fingers. Either way I'll update y'all demain.

As well, the 2nd half of Didier's Birthday gift is on Saturday. I'm taking to him to a yet undisclosed restaurant for a swanky meal. ;-)

Stay tuned for more!

Maria said...

OK OK I will stop. I am not into harassing people.

Although since your so good at it I could always get you to harassor bitch slap a few pain in the ass people I know.

'twould be a pleasure ma'am!

Maria said...

Ma'am? There I go being referred to by my Dominatrix name.

I have been trying to put those days behind me!! LOL

Sean Newbury said...

Ma'am?
Mistress is far better!

Maria said...

Your taking Didier to yet another restaurant for a swanky dinner?

May I suggest Milos?? Its quite a steal for one 5 lbs lobster @ $175.00 thats just for the lobster... add entrees @ about $20.00 each, plus a good ole fashioned greek salad at $25.00 with tomatoes flown in from Greece at that price and they are just the right temperature. Then to end the meal with some greek dessert of dipped honey balls and when the bill finally comes be prepared to FAINT!

I am sure though that Didier deserves it since you love him more than leopard print!! DON'T ACCEPT ANYTHING LESS DIDIER!!!!!!!!

OVER & OUT.
MEAN & NASTY MARIA

PS Happy Birthday Didier!

OH Dear I am getting quite the reputation.

Dipped honey balls are as follows:
Loukoumades

Greek style doughnuts. Also known as DIPPED HONEY BALLS!

Ingredients:
1 Pinch Cinnamon To taste
2 Cup Flour
1 A Little Oil
1 Teaspoon Salt "Light" teaspoon
1 Handful Sesame Seeds
1 A Little Thyme Honey
4 Teaspoon Yeast
Directions:
Thin the yeast in 1/2 cup of warm water.

Mix the flour with the salt and put it in a deep ball.

Add the yeast and an extra cup of warm water and mix well until you make a uniform thin paste.

Cover and leave in the shade for 1 1/2 hour until it rises and forms bubbles under the surface.

Heat the oil in a deep frying pan and pour your mix in, one large spoonful at a time.

The mix will form round dumplings.

Remove them with a strainer/laidle when they darken a little.

Pour honey over them, cinnamon and the sesame seeds.

They are quite yummy!! ENJOY!
Or if you prefer you can use YOUR own balls. DIFFERENT STROKES FOR DIFFERENT FOLKS!

Nice! Maria, mother of two youngsters and a reputed one-time dominatrix, said "your own balls" and "strokes" in the same paragraph.

We used to have a saying about girls like that, back in Iroquois Falls: Let's date 'em!

Maria said...

NGB: If you date me you got to date the hubby too!

BTW, the honey dipped balls are a HUGE treat for greeks (I remember my mom making them almost every Sunday as a youngster) and since your "almost greek" Mr. Papadopoulos, you should stop typing and START stuffing your face with some balls! Honey dipped ones of course.

Hey think Kitty minds that we're using his blog to chit chat? LOL

Nah, Kitty's cool.

And no, I won't stuff my face with balls. I might be pseudo-Greek, but I'm the straight guy, 'member?

Likewise about dating you and Hubby. My idea of a threesome does not include another hairy, gassy guy -- or a hairy, gassy gal, for that matter.

Sean Newbury said...

Balls?
Honey dipped balls?
GIMMIE!
GIMMIE GIMMIE GIMMIE!

Oh wait... dessert?

Hmmm Ok well I guess I still want em!

;-)

Maria said...

hairy, gassy guy?? are guys typically hairy & gassy?

I don't know many hairy, gassy gals... Maybe some hairy ones and some gassy ones but a combination of both would just be damn nasty!!

Were getting Kitty all hot and bothered with our conversation of honey dipped balls!
