Lipstick Addiction? Me???

Hello and Welcome my Darling Friend... I’m absolutely delighted that you’ve stopped by for a visit!  Come make yourself comfy, I’ve got a fresh pot of, ‘Social Media Addiction’ to fill your cup...

Hello, my name is Caffe and I’m an addict.  Uh huh, you heard me my Dear, I am... AH  DIC  TED!  No Darling, Ted is not a dick, that’s not what I meant and you know it... hmmph... just because I post about big decks and sexy MILFs doesn’t mean you can come visit me with your mind in the gutter!  On second thought, it is kind of naughty! 

You know I’m a fiend for shimmery lip colors, I can’t concentrate on my shopping list if I’m anywhere near the lipstick aisle... mauves, pinks, reds... Aaaack!  Hang on a second... is having an urge to buy a dozen new lipsticks every time I pass the lipstick aisle considered an addiction?  Well, maybe a little as this was not the addiction I was meaning to chat about...

Now that I took you over the river and through the woods, the addiction I’m talking about is... shhhh... I don’t want to say it too loud as I don’t want to wake the beast... SOCIAL MEDIA!!!  Oh yeah Caffe, now you’ve done it.

It all started with a little blog, then on to some social blogging sites.  Facebook and Twitter are a favorite to many, so I must see what the fuss is about... then the connections I’ve made along the way start inviting moi to their hangouts, and Darling, there are zillions!  Oooh, Pinterest?  What the heck is Triberr?  Klout is a what?  And now you want me to be a part of Empire Avenue?

Every site is something shiny and new... hey, no wonder I like it so much, it’s like when I buy a new lipstick!  With each new social tool that attracts my attention, an impulse to learn how they all work has stolen my complete attention ... oh why oh why couldn’t I be happy with just lipsticks?!  

So now you know my Dear Friend... I have more than one addiction, I mean, well, all the lipsticks I buy is considered one... right?  HEY, maybe I should explain how all this social stuff works... oooh, good idea!  Would you be interested in knowing about some of these sites I’m talking about?  Let me know in the comment section and I can write a post and maybe, sort of, explain just for you my Dear, what the heck it all means. 

Well Darling, I’m off to Empire Avenue fix dinner... we’ll chat again when I can get my mind focussed on one thing and one thing only... lipstick Facebook a post that talks about... well, meeee!  Huh?  We’ve been talking about me?  OH, well... then I did what I was supposed to...  Until next time my Lovely Friend... Ta Ta!

What Do You Wanna Know Darling? An Interview...

Well Hello my Dear Friend... I’m so delighted that you’ve stopped by for a visit!  I’ve got a fresh brew ready to fill your cup...

I got a tweet the other day from my Darling Friend Gina who is the funny lady behind, Full Of It.  She said she had something for me and I immediately began thinking about what color my new shade of lipstick that my Dear Gina got for me.  To my surprise, it was one of those tag interviews that I usually avoid like the plague... BUT, I said I would do it and now I’m mulling over my computer wondering why I said yes if I can get away without doing it at all.

Now, now, now Caffe... that’s not how a lady behaves!  Who said anything about being a lady??  I’m a MILF!  Alright, alright... I’ll answer the questions.  Huh?  Oh yeah, there’s rules and other mumble jumble and I’m supposed to tag other bloggers and blah, blah, blah... sheesh, what got in my cup today?

Whatever you do, please Darling, please visit my Dear friend Gina and let her know I sent you.  Pretend like you read an interview about me and she’ll never know the difference!  What?  Pulling teeth?  Hmmmph...

Here is how it works:

1) Post the rules.

2) Tag up to eleven 5 bloggers by posting links to their blogs, and let them know.

3) Create eleven 7 (it's lucky!) questions for the people you’ve tagged.

4) Answer the questions your tagger posed for you.

5)Have fun!


As you can see from my edits above, I've changed the rules... just a little bit... so here are the 5 bloggers I would love to know more about... regardless if they play along, please stop by their blogs and let them know that Caffe sent ya!


The Girlfriend Mom 
So Easy Being Green  
Coffee & Cabernet  
Living Aloha  
Home is Where You Start From

1.  Do you post as often as you would like, and if not, why not?
No, I don't Darling... we all know the story when there are kids around and the interruption rate in my household is every 30 seconds... so I can't always post when I want to... then there's looking for unleaded lipstick...

2.  What is your favorite go-to blog and why?

I have several, actually, I have way more than that my Dear.  I've met so many FABulous Mommys in the BlogSphere that have become my Darling Friends. I don't dare write just one  favorite, as each blog is as unique as the FABulous writer behind it.

3.  If you could go anywhere on your next vacation, where would you go? 

Home... I want to go back to my little grass shack...

4.  What gave you the impetus to start blogging?

Well Darling, I'm actually not new to blogging.  {{GASP!}}  You see my Dear, I'm actually pretty good at more than just lipsticks... and the mystery continues...

5.  Pinterest - yes or no?

Maybe?  I mean, I'm a yes until Pinterest came out with their new TOS... 

6.   What is your favorite holiday and why?

Any holiday is my favorite holiday if I get to buy a new lipstick to celebrate with!

7.   I'm in the midst of buying and selling a home and am obsessed with de-cluttering.  What's your latest obsession?

Do I really have to answer that?  lol

8.  What do you fear the most?

I'm fearless Darling...

9.  I'm stuck on dinner ideas.  What's your easiest meal that you make for your family that they devour almost every time?

One child with braces (eating has become hard), and the other decided on becoming a vegetarian (really?), the Hubby is allergic to cheese... HELP!!


 10.  Twilight?  I can't get in to that phenomenon.  What latest fad are you avoiding?

Bushy 80's eyebrows... I don't think so!

11.  Any big plans for the upcoming year that you care to share?

Okay, I'll fess up, but keep it on the DL okay Darling?  I'm thinking about a big reveal post... oooh, a big reveal?  I wonder what it could be!  lol

 So there you have it... a 2 minute interview starring the FABulous me... Cups Up!  Until next time my Dear FABulous Friend... Ta Ta!
