Imitation Post #1... Muffins, Cookie Bars, Cookies, Sandwich, Oh My!

I've got 5 Imitators for you today! 5 Imitators. 5 Imitators. 55555555555.. yep, 5.
Ever heard the saying Imitation is the MOST sincere form of flattery?? This is my FIRST Imitation post. Every month, I am going to make it a goal to have an Imitation post. This first post will kick it off with me Imitating 5 foodie Blogger recipes.. And in effect, flattering them!

Before I begin however, I must tell you what pops in my head when I hear the word IMITIATE.. Can YOU GUESS.. porn movies.. Yessiree IMITATE brings to my mind porn flicks... and for 3 reasons. If'n you dont want to add some spice to the bedroom, or understand the workings of my sick mind, please skip to the recipes. If however, you are exciting and wish to add some more multiples to your O's, read on.

First reason is simply basic, a no brainer, IMITATE Technique. Holy Crap, you can pick up a world of technique by watching the movement of body parts, lips, hands, etc.. Yep, you can add probably 20 minutes to your BJ time on hubby just by following technique. Yep, you can learn to bring him up and down, up and down, and he'll love you all the more for it.. you may even get a Le Creuset pot or two outta the dealio. Second reason Porn movies remind me of the word Imitation is the way the porn people touch themselves. Imitate how they touch themselves.. Imitate the whole shebang,for crissakes, from the eyes, to the clothing, to the moans and the groans..I highly recommend the touching of oneself in front of your spousal unit, because after a couple seconds of that, he will just take over. And in a most aggressive amorous way..Yep, Yep he will. This is a really, really good tip.. if he isnt um in the mood, all you have to do is touch yourself, and he's there STANDING at attention. TRUST ME. The men drool at the touching of oneself.. take it from me.. I mean the porn stars..BTW, you may enjoy it also..

Last reason Imitate reminds me of porn flicks would be the role playing idea.. Imitate others ... become others, this is my favorite, so many avenues to explore here people, Possibilities are endless.. OM F^&*() god, I LOVE to role play!! You can be anyone, do anything, do anyone, and do everyone.. I've tried and enjoyed, possibly repeated, the following.. Repairman and housewife, consruction worker and woman who brings THEM lemonade, doctor and patient, Fred and Wilma,

Batman and Wonder Woman,

UPS man and woman answering door in towel, Adam and Eve, woman trapped in all girl prison.. hey where'd that come from--, pirate and captive, personal trainer and person who needs to be stretched, Marine on leave and bartramp,scuba diver and ocean, cowgirl and a cowboywith lassos.. um sooo..a favorite, you get the idea.. Oh Wait, just let me tell you all about my favorite role play scene.. maybe I better not, Ill just tell you what its about, Urban Cowboy movie scene

with the mechanical Bull,

you use your imagination how that one goes.

In Conclusion, yes the word imitate reminds me of the porn flicks.. I admit it..I LOVE role-playing , love touching myself , and really love extending my world record giving BJ time! The better the BJ the better the return.. the better the birthday gift;)..Oh, the wonders of performing the BJ, another day.. I promise, I just can't contain my darned dirty self.. Now on to you bloggers,

On to MY Imitation of YOU! YOU might be featured next month!!First Up is Debbie of Mocha Me! Do you all know Debbie?? If not, go see her. NOW! She is a sweetie-pie! She has awesomely fantastic recipes that are so reachable to us normal folk. Who is to say what is normal anyway? From cajun chicken pasta, to casseroles, to stir fry beef and broccoli.. she has it all..

She actually introduced me to my most favorite ever banana cake .. find that there, holy crap, I havent had a better one. She has an awesome cherry swirl coffeecake up there right now.

She enjoys cooking with bananas.. lots of bananas.. she likes bananas. She does tricks with bananas too..kidding Debbie, your secrets are so safe with me, girlfriend!

Anyway, I saw these M&M Cookie Bars on her blog, and I knew I had to make them, so I did and here they are! I used the pastel M&Ms. Aren't I just so special?

My children devoured these. And they thank you for them..Love ya Debbie!

Next up is Judy of Judy's Kitchen. Judy was one of my very FIRST bloggie friends and I love her too. I am just full of the love tonight, full of the love.. could it be I just had a um good time..maybe, baby!

She has won prizes in national cooking/baking contests and her recipes are spot on !! Right on the money!! She has the best muffins imaginable on her blog.

What I like best about ther blog is the way she rates the recipes, 1-10, she is VERY honest in her ratings, so if she says 9 or 9.5 /10 I will be trying it at some point. She calls me naughty, but nice. Yep, Judy says Im naughty but nice.. Why am I naughty? I say out loud what most women think, why .. because I'm 40.. and because I love the number 69. I like being called naughty. It makes me fell minx-y.

You can LEARN a lot from this lady. A lot of cooking tips and baking things. If you want to learn some other kind of tips, please email me, Im a your girl. I tried her Devil's Food Chocolate Chip Muffins, such a winner here in our home!

Judy cooks much more healthy than I do, and she shares her substitutions, I make mine the original fat-laden way! Judy also informed me via way of comments that she never fakes her O's. I am so glad to know that, I do not like phonies. VISIT HER, SAY HI, if you don't,you dont know what youre missing!

Ingrid, OH MY INGRID, of 3 B's... Love her, just love her. Why? because she loves to play with wooden spoons.. she is one cu-well chick! She introduced me to the simplest bar cookie , like ever!!!

All ingredients go in one bowl, and in one pan and voila, instant dessert. She calls them Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Brownies. Aren't they gorgeous?

Look, one bowl, no mess, and delicious.

She offers a wide assortment of recipes on her blog, and again, she is brutally honest, if she doesnt like something, she will tell you. NOT everything is good with Ingrid.

So, you can trust her. Ingrid also has a fascination with my freaking wooden spoon. I want it back like NOW Ingrid, you had it long enough! You selfish thing!

Monica of Lick the Bowl Good does not have ONE thing on her blog I do not like. Not one!

Her pictures are unbelievable!! Just roll down her sidebars, you will be thrilled!

I mean good lord, everything from biscotti, hummingbird cakes, scones, breads, brownies, to milk punch and carrot cake oatmeal.. its all there.. And what a freaking great personality..She calls herself perv#3, Cheryl is perv #2, I keep wondering who perv#1 is?? Anyone who is a self-proclaimed perv is TOPS with me! I made her egg salad sandwich the other day, it sounded so simple, yet so delicious, and of course, it was..

My pictures do not do it justice.. go check out hers!!

Stephanie of Ice Cream Before Dinner had the most wonderful coffee cake muffins on her blog.

She adapted the muffin from a recipe from Bon Appetit, and it is bliss. Ratio of crumb to muffin is about 1/2 and I so LOVE that!

I am such a gluttonous fool. A gluttonous sex-craved silly fool. Am I ever satisfied.. I dunno ask FFH!

She also has a simply amazing sugar cookie BAR recipe with a buttercream frosting I am dying to try! Scroll through her blog, you will be so glad you did. Look at these babies, just look!

That's all folks for today.. I am going to try and do these once a month, please let me know if you like this type of post? I try so much of your stuff, Id like to acknowlegde my thanks!! Now I have to run to the costume outlet.. tonights role play theme is little red riding hood and the big bad wolf.. catch me if you can, catch me if you can..yes, I know you all know, Im gonna let him catch me!

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  44. I love every one of the blogs you recommended--simple, accessible, yummalicious food. Egg salad and bacon--omg, yum. And those peanut butter chocolate chip brownies, all in one bowl...can I get them from the bowl into the oven? Or, is this cookie tartare?

    ReplyDelete
  45. Donna, I'm new to your blog, but I must say that I absolutely love the mix of sex and food here! You have me actually LOL-ing. :)

    I think the concept of this post is great.

    ReplyDelete
  46. What a brilliant idea! Whenever someone inspires me to make a recipe, I like to give that person credit. These, my dear, are all wonderful recipes. I'll have to skip off to visit your foodie friends. The bar cookies look pretty darned good-- to easy for me, a working mom and wife, to make for lunch boxes.

  53. First of all - "you may even get a Le Creuset pot or two outta the dealio" -- LITERALLY made me laugh OUT LOUD. Just me and my dog here, I'm sitting at the computer, literally laughing out loud. I actually startled the dog. Second - I love the idea of this post! I'm so flattered you did my muffins (i lervve those muffins) and i love the idea of an imitation post! There are so many recipes I try from other blogs - this is a great way to do it! I'm definitely doing to do an imitation of your imitation post in the future!

    ReplyDelete
  64. You antics crack me up!! The M&M Cookie Bars and Muffins look so cute and delicious!

    ReplyDelete
  66. Too funny. Everything looks so good...I am not sure where to start.

    ReplyDelete
  67. What a dessert treasure today! You have so many good recipes posted that I don't know which to make first. I copied them all! Thank you!

    ReplyDelete
  68. All of these baked goods look SO delicious. I'm loving the pastel M+M bars. And you know...there's no better exercise to work off those calories than a good imitaiton session. I mean, think of how strong your abs would get from all of that up and down BJ motion...it really is the gift that keeps on giving.

    ReplyDelete

And who knows, maybe you have inspired me to venture into new territories... ;)
