Matt Layzell from The Matinée and I compared our tattoos when we spoke last week.
So, there’s all this talk of a 50 Shades of Grey movie.
Recently there has been wild rumours flying around about who is going to play female lead, Anastasia Steele.
The most recent prediction is Emma Watson, a rumour which was quickly shot down by the actress via Twitter.
Although there doesn’t seem to be anything concrete about this BDSM film, this whole bit got me thinking about what actresses I think could be in the running.
If you’ve read this blog before, or received decent sex education in high school, you’re likely familiar with condoms. However, the typical condom that covers a penis or phallus isn’t the only kind of condom out there! These condoms can be referred to as ‘external condoms’ because there are also ‘internal condoms’. Rather than being placed over a penis or phallus, they are placed inside the vagina or anus.

Anyone who knows me well can attest to the fact that I love healthy cooking. I’m a big believer in making meals that are both healthy and delicious; healthy choices shouldn’t mean sacrificing taste. I’ve come to develop a standard set of ingredients that I use up each week in a variety of meals, all of which are budget friendly and packed with nutrition. All of these meals are detox-based and serve as great meals for a DIY detox, or as a light meal to recalibrate from a night out.

If you’re thinking “Wait, hold up, I know plenty of people who have gotten pregnant/an STI and they were using condoms! What about Ross and Rachel on Friends?!”
For four years, Barack Obama and his top counterterrorism advisor John Brennan met regularly. During these meetings, Obama and Brennan worked methodically through a “kill list” of men who they perceived as a threat to America’s national security. After Obama and Brennan marked someone for death, the target would be taken out with a missile fired by an unmanned aircraft know as a drone. Thankfully, this process has sparked a controversy.

My love of baking began when I was still in the single digits, and hello dollies was the first recipe I learned to make on my own. It requires quite a few packages of toppings, but there’s nothing wrong with having a stash of chocolate or butterscotch chips in your cupboard for future use and/or grazing. They take no time at all to make and are incredibly indulgent … bet you can’t eat just one.
