Smexy’s Top Ten – Ho Ho Ho

December 18, 2015 by Mandi 21 Comments

10. I’m done. This is it. There is nothing else left to say today. The dumbest things in this world make me laugh.  “Raspberries make grape beards” – I’ll just be over here laughing for the rest of the day.   51dRpZ7zJLL._SX331_BO1,204,203,200_9. I’m currently reading Hell & High Water by Charlie Cochet – a M/M Paranormal/Suspense romance – and it’s a lot of fun. Angela James recommended it on Twitter this week. It’s the first of what appears to be at least a seven book series (I think the first five are out). It’s in a world where there are humans, and shifters – and the two heroes work as detectives for serious murder crimes. It’s funny so far – with lots of action. Scanning reviews, there is not a HEA or even HFN (Happy for now) in this book. You have to wait for the romance…..but you know the two that will end up together. I plan to review it at Smexy next week. Goodreads l Kindle    

8. Ryan Gosling dancing in 1992. This makes me GIGGLE.  

enhanced-23987-1450388803-1 (2)7. Jim has muscled up!! And the beard. Look at this pic! Pam is one lucky lady *wink*

 

6. Apparently this random guy, running shirtless in the rain ran into this newscaster – so they got to talking and then shirtless dude is all – hey ladies, I’m single. Snort. You can watch the video here. It’s silly. Are we trying a little too hard here, sir? *wink*


5. SPEAKING OF SEXY

 

4. A little teaser trailer for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them!!!! Out next year. Can’t wait for this.

a71db356894ddbf85e108236dd7210a53. I had a peppermint chocolate martini at a holiday party last weekend, and I’m still thinking about it. I’m not even that big of a fan for mint – but add some vodka and it apparently I fall in love. I think all she did was 1.5 to .5 of Godiva chocolate liquer and peppermint liquer. I tried to spy her making them but then I had a second and things got blurry *wink* – she also put crushed candy cane pieces on the rim. It was soooo good and festive.


2. Your Friday cute.

1 Are we ready for the weekend? Is your holiday shopping done? If not, refer to #3 and repeat. We are taking the boys to see Star Wars Saturday and then we have fun things planned with friends on Sunday. Happy one-week from Christmas!

    Between the grape beard, Ryan Gosling in his MC Hammer pants and the dogs cuddling up for a picture, you’ve totally made my Friday. :)

    Love the L’Oreal ad with Chewy. It would have been interesting to see if they can do this with R2D2. :)

    I’m guessing I’ll be at Star Wars this weekend, too, with my kids in tow. Enjoy the movie!

    There’s always something on Smexy’s Top 10 that I tell all my friends about. Love it. I look forward to it every Friday. This week it’s the posing puppies and the runner. Thanks!

    OMG Dex and Sloane – I first discovered them on audio and now have listened to all the available books and read them on my kindle aswell!! I am a serious fangirl. Officially obsessed with the THIRDS, brilliant series, the author Charlie Cochet’s website is fantastic and I heart this couple so so much. Enjoy Mandi :)

    PS speaking of favourite couples – the rest of Ty and Zane have finally been released on audio albeit with a different narrator – Stars and Stripes is waiting for me ;)

    Merry Christmas…

        Yes I am sure you will fall in love with them too the more you read!!! I would have rec’d it to you sooner after I discovered them but I presumed you had already read them. The THIRDS world and cast of characters are sooo fab – and cracky :) Right up your street. And Dex is sweet and Sloane – just swoon…..
