I'm Your Dating Diva

At the end of last month, while browsing through Pinterest, I came across a Diva Wanted position by The Dating Divas.   The Dating Divas are a group of talented, adorable, and fun ladies.  They share all sorts of ideas like creative dates, DIY craft tutorials, and tips on strengthening marriages.  I have been in love with these ladies for several years now.

I read through their application and was intrigued, I felt that I would be a perfect fit for their team.  Submitted my 20 some page application and patiently waited.   I made it into their top 20, which was a huge surprise.  Now it was time to see if I could tough out round two applications. I felt quite intimated knowing that now I was going up against the best.

During this application process I must have done a few things right because they picked ME!!!  I am super excited to start this new journey with The Dating Divas.

Bedroom Eyes

39.  Just Do It

Do you want to be an amazing lover who knows all the sweet spots and how to leave your spouse begging for more?  Of course you do, so here's a tip for all you perfectionists...Today's sexy tip is "Just Do It!"  Take the time to practice new or rarely tried positions, change up the scenery with lingerie or candles, and find new places to tease each other.   Take it slow it down and explore the ins and outs of each other, find new spots to tease to make him/her sigh and moan.  During and after your intimate practice talk about your highs and lows, what you like most, and give each other a few hints for next practice session.  So  "Just Do It" because practice makes perfect in the bedroom!

Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Pudding

Have you been searching for a delicious picnic treat???  If so look no further!!!  Peanut Butter and Chocolate always make any occasion a little sweeter and dreamier!!!  I love summertime because they come with promises for many picnic opportunities with my sweet hubby.  When we go on picnics I like to add a special cute dessert for each of us.  When I stumbled upon this recipe from Bakerella I knew I had found the perfect treat for our romantic picnic dessert!  Of course I made a few changes to the original recipe because I like to kick things up just a bit!  If you love these darling jar labels you can click on the link below recipe to get your copy from Bakerella.

PS.  This recipe makes 4 mini servings.  So eat one on your picnic and save one for later. Trust me you are going to want two all to yourself!!!  

Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Pudding

30 vanilla wafers or Nutter Butters (the peanut butter cookies will give it more of a peanut butter kick, which I think is yummy!!!  you could also use half wafers and half Nutter Butters too)
3 Tablespoons melted butter
2 Tablespoons sugar

1- 1 1/2 cups mini chocolate chips
1/3 cup peanut butter, melted

2 – 3.4 oz packages vanilla pudding mix
2 cups cold milk
8 oz. container COOL WHIP Whipped Topping, thawed in refrigerator

4 oz cream cheese at room temperature (adding this to your vanilla pudding custard will make it that much better!!!)

Nutter Butters, about 16 broken in small pieces
3 medium bananas
lemon juice (place some juice in a spray bottle for easier use)

4 – 1 pint glass jars with lids (look for cute ones!!!)

Crush the vanilla wafers or Nutter Butters in a food processor or a blender.   Add sugar and melted butter and stir together until a little crumbly (mixture should not be dry, if it is add a little more butter).  Press the crumbs into the bottom of the cute glass jars.  

Slice bananas and spray them with lemon juice to help prevent them from turning brown too soon.  Layer the banana cookies over the crust.  

Make the pudding by combining pudding mixes with milk and softened cream cheese and beat with a mixer or wire whisk for two minutes.  (tip:  don't use your kitchen aid stand mixer for this because the whipping blade can't reach the bottom of the bowl leaving your cream cheese all clumpy)  Than slowly fold COOL WHIP Whipped Topping into the pudding. Don’t over mix.  Layer the pudding over the bananas. 

Melt peanut butter in the microwave until smooth (about 30 seconds). Sprinkle several mini chips over pudding and drizzle melted peanut butter on top of chips. 

Layer broken up Nutter Butters over peanut butter.  

Create one more layer starting with the bananas, pudding, chips, peanut butter and top with the Nutter Butters pieces. 

Refrigerate for a few hours before serving.

Notes:  For those of you who might not like something here or there in this recipe, go ahead and change it up to your liking.  This is a versatile recipe you can do anything with it! Add strawberries, eliminate the peanut butter, add more chocolate, use a different cookie, or omit the crust altogether.  Experiment and see what yumminess you can come up with!  If you don't want to mess with the mini containers you can layer this in a pretty trifle dish as well.

14. Touch Him

Chase Him Down

14. Touch Him

Your man wants to know that you want him.  A good way to let him know you want him all over you is by caressing and teasing him in sexy ways.  Walk past him and gently swipe your fingers across his butt.  Mention that you love the way his booty looks in those jeans.  Caress his inner thigh while you are sitting next to each other.  Tell him how you love the feel of those legs around you. Sensual caresses and banter throughout the day will leave him longing for you.

14. Moonlit Walks

Rushed Romance

14.  Moonlit Walks

Grab your guy and go for a leisurely night walk around the park, lake, or beach.  If you have enough prep time you can turn this into a night scavenger hunt.  Buy a few glow in the dark sticks and hide them with a few items for a picnic, such as a blanket, basket, battery operated candles, an easy book about constellations, etc.  IF you don't have time for that then just pack all of your items in a picnic basket.   Study your constellation book and discover who has the best eye. Whoever can find the big dipper, orion's belt, and the milky way first gets a prize of their choosing!
