Last Week’s Mmm’s
Last week had 6 succulent posts! We had a lesson on Responsible BDSM, a Drunk Fuck, and A night at the Circus. There was also a Stretch, a finale in the Barn, and a conversation with our Inner voice. You can read all those Mmm’s here!
Mmm Makers
July is here, and usually this is where I would highlight a new Mmm Maker. There are still plenty of talent to place in the spotlight, but summer is in full swing (in the Northern Hemisphere, at least) and many people are busy do summer-y things. Mmm Makers will take a break until the first Friday in September. Until then, take a peek at all the past Mmm Makers. A huge thank you to all who have been in the spotlight so far!

Week 79 Recommended Read
Open- an uncensored memoir of love, liberation, and non-monogamy by Rachal Krantz
Open caught my attention in the New and Notable section of my local library. On the cover it blatantly speaks of non-monogamy, a topic that intrigues me greatly. So on a whim, I grabbed it. And within the first afternoon I had read one hundred pages and had no intention of putting it down.
When Rachel meets Adam, he’s clear he’s looking for committed relationship- but not one based in monogamy or exclusivity. Interested, but wary, Rachel decides to see if her ideas of a relationship can fit inside Adams. This is a true story about self discovery, how trust is created, destroyed and rebuilt. How freedom and imprisonment can exist in the same space and a brings a new definition of autonomy.
With explicit BDSM scenes, a unique openness about polyamory like never seen before, and a rawness rarely documented, this book is must read.
Week 79 Recipe
Caesar- A Canadian Cocktail
July 1 is Canada day, a celebration of the Confederation of Canada. An extra long weekend will mean extra long celebrations, which is something that Canadians do best.
The Caesar was invented in Calgary, Alberta in 1969, and is a Canadian favourite. Depending on where you order one, a Casear can be a meal itself, topped with everything from pickled asparagus to mini cheeseburgers. This recipe is just the basics, but feel free to dress it however you like.
