Happy HNT - Razor Strop

Happy HNT (Half-Nekkid Thursday) everyone! One of my favorite spanking toys is our authentic razor strop that we bought from a Flea Market a few years ago. I love his belt too but this is a close favorite for toys that I like to play with. It is made of soft leather and carries a bit of a bite from it when it's being used on my ass. I love the sting that it leaves behind after some attention from it on my bum. Yummy! :)

The razor strop was bought as an old shaving kit and is from Britain. Obviously Anakin doesn't use the razor strop though for sharpening the shaving blade. lol. It was one of the best $60 we have ever spent on a toy! Authentic razor strops are hard to find now. You might find something similar at an adult store but it's not going to be the same as the old traditional ones.

What's your favorite spanking toy? Please leave us a comment and let us know what you think. We'd love to hear from you. Check out Osbasso's blog if you are interested in participating in the HNT series.

May the force be with you all!!

Hard hand spanking

I am sitting here all alone and all I can think about is getting spanked!! I've been watching some spanking porn (on spanking tube.com) and fantasizing about Anakin spanking my ass hard with his big hand.

Darth Vader can spank really hard!! I'm over a pillow in this picture getting a hard hand spanking by Anakin. I love how intimate a hand spanking feels. The sting on my bottom. The redness of my bum. And usually it makes my pussy really wet too!!

I need a spanking! :P

May the force be with you all!!

Summertime blues

I'm not sure why this time of the year is always a bit hard for me. I tend to always get the summertime blues. I much prefer the Fall and when the kids are back in school and there is a routine and structure to my days. Halloween is my favorite time of the year. I am already looking forward to it and it's a few months away!

I've been having a bit of a hard time lately and Anakin noticed it as well. We went for a long walk yesterday and talked about it. It's always a bit harder for me with kids out of school and a house full of kids. I feel like it's getting harder for Anakin and I to spend time together. We are lucky sometimes to have a half an hour together at the end of the day to cuddle uninterrupted. Our house has felt very busy lately. We spent most of Saturday cleaning our carpets. We've also been working on house projects a lot lately.

We did get an overnight on Friday which was a surprise. We had the kids gone and a chance to finally play on the darkside. I wasn't really in the mood which is very unlike me. Anakin ran me a hot bath and gave me a really nice long massage. He brought the toys out and also poured me a few glasses of wine. It helped me to relax and get into the play. We had some anal sex and I had a much needed orgasm. It was wonderful. I also got caned which left some nasty bruises on my ass and a much needed reminder of who owns me. It was a nice escape for me.

But then Saturday morning we got a surprise e-mail. It caused a change in the plans for the weekend. My sister and brother are both coming for a visit this weekend. Don't get me wrong...it will be nice to see them both again. I've missed them. But I also have tried to avoid family drama and that will be hard to avoid this weekend.

There is a lot of family stress happening and this kind of piles it all on. I wasn't expecting it. We thought we had a long weekend free but apparently not. Instead I'm going to be going to visit my Dad's grave. :S It's very hard for me to visit my Dad. Brings a lot of sadness and bad feelings.

My FIL is receiving a lot of chemo treatments right now and is going through a lot with his cancer. It's been a tough time for us and can be challenging sometimes to be the caretaker of your parent. Anakin is responsible for his dad and has had to take a lot of time to be there for him. We had considered going away on vacation but he needs us right now and it's very hard to leave. Cancer sucks! It affects the whole family. And it's a lot to deal with when I'm still processing my MIL's death and all that we went through with her cancer and passing.

I'm also upset about what has happened with my mom. She's taken off and written off most of the family. She's on the run from creditors and the law. The situation is really out of control and also a bit heartbreaking. I am starting to wonder if things will ever be the same between my mom and I. Everything has changed. I shouldn't be surprised that she's taken off again but it's very disappointing. I always learn the hard way when it comes to my mom. Sad but true.

Hopefully things will get better. I'm trying to be positive but it's been hard to lately. I've had a few really dark days. I'm glad to have Anakin though. He's been my strong force through all of it. I don't know what I would do without him. Thank you Master!

May the force be with you all!!

The old riding crop

I was going through old pictures and noticed this one. I don't think I've put it up before. I was dressed in some sexy red lingerie and he was holding onto our riding crop. We had to throw that crop out recently because it was falling apart. There were many fond memories of croppings that I received through the years.

It was one of the first toys that we ever bought. We had watched the movie 9 1/2 weeks and there was a scene with a riding crop in it. I asked Anakin if he would buy me a crop and then give me a cropping with it. We were just starting to experiment with spankings and it took a few shots of Jack Daniels to tell him my true feelings. I am a lot more comfortable about it all now but felt awkward in the early days about discussing spanking play and bdsm. Anakin and I were just starting to get to know each other. This happened before we had even found D/s on the internet. We were both exploring with some very new areas to our lives.

He agreed to buy me the crop. The only place that he could buy a riding crop was downtown Vancouver at the time. We didn't have the internet yet! So we didn't know about any other stores. And it was hard to find it locally. Even adult stores did not carry too many bdsm type of toys yet. It was 1997 at the time and things were a little bit different. I can go onto Eden Fantasys now and just order one but it wasn't always like that. lol.

He went downtown by himself to buy the riding crop. I wasn't able to come with him to get it. He had heard through a friend that a store down on Granville Street called Macs Leathers (it is now closed) had bdsm toys. So he took the skytrain and went down there to buy our crop. He bought the crop and they gave him a paper bag which didn't cover the whole thing. So it was sticking out. Anakin went all the way home with the crop sticking out of the bag. *laughing* He told me he got a few strange looks on the skytrain home.

I'll never forget that first cropping that I got with it. I got cropped with it as soon as he got home. 80 hard strokes on my ass!! Yikes! I squirmed around the bed with him yelling at me to "stay still and take it". He had me in tears by the end of it all. I respected that crop and it always got my attention when it came out of the toy bag.

That old riding crop lasted us a long time. 1997 to 2011. I have no clue how many croppings I got with it. Way too many to count.

We do have another crop which we use which has replaced our first one. It was given to us by some blogging friends we had at the time. I enjoy getting cropped by it but it's just not the same as that old riding crop we had. I'm going to miss it. :)

May the force be with you all!!

Happy HNT - Sexy Starfish Necklace

Happy HNT (Half-Nekkid Thursday) everyone! This picture was taken last weekend during some play time with Anakin. I was wearing some sexy black lingerie from Eden Fantasys and was showing off my new Starfish necklace! Anakin bought me the beautiful necklace in Harrison Hot springs last weekend. I love it! I felt so sexy. Click on the picture to get a better look at it.

Eden Fantasys wins "O" Award

I don't know if you heard the amazing news but EdenFantasys won the "O" Award (which is a prestigious award given out by AVN) for Outstanding Online Retailer! This is very exciting news for Eden Fantasys! You can read all about it here!

I am not very surprised that Eden Fantasys would win the award for outstanding online retailer. All of my experiences with them have been very positive and rewarding for me in many ways. I've expanded my toy collection and starting writing reviews about many of them. I also joined a really great sex positive community which gave me the opportunity to meet other people as well as other bloggers. There are a few blogs that I recently started reading because I found them on EF. I follow EF on twitter and have discovered new people to follow on there through the site. Their twitter parties are great for meeting new peeps!

I really enjoy reading all the reviews as well on Eden. I've learned about toys to avoid and the best ones to buy for the right price. I admit that I'm addicted to the site now. I love the forum. I spend about an hour a day (sometimes more) on EF browsing the reviews and always adding onto my never ending wish list. There is a very big Eden Playground!
Many places to check out and new things to discover through their different sites. Check it out!Sex toys - EdenFantasys adult toys storeI really love their point system on the site. You get points for different things that you do on the site whether it's follow someone or rate a review. I've earned lots of points to put towards free toys. I also love that they give out free gifts as well. I've had several vibrators arrive as a part of my order with EF. I've always had really good shopping experiences through Eden. I live in Canada and the order usually takes about a week to get to me with UPS. The packaging is discreet and all the toys have always been wrapped well.

I enjoy being an Eden blogger. It is very easy to sign up to be one. You can do reviews through EF or on your blog like I do. I really enjoy testing out new toys and being able to review them for people. I have been given several other offers from toy companies to review their products but I choose to only do them for Eden Fantasys. I think they are a fantastic company to work with and have been very helpful to me with learning how it all works.

I have attended several twitter parties through EF. I even won a gift card from one of them. I won another Eden contest through Eden Cafe. They have contests and some really great giveaways. There is always lots happening through the community. There are some great clubs as well as events you can check out.

You can find many reviews on their site for all kinds of different toys. There is even some really helpful video reviews. Eden Tube is very neat! I've found out some really helpful information from them when buying new toys. They are real reviews by real people.

I really enjoy shopping through their online store as well. They've got some really good prices on their toys and am always having new promotions going on. They have books, lingerie, and even DVD's! I am always surprised at the new stuff that goes into the online store. My wish list keeps getting bigger and bigger. And I even get points when I put new things onto my wish list! Very cool! :)

You can even set up your new shop through EF although I have not done that yet. I think it would be very cool to do that one day though. They have a really good affiliate program which I joined though. There are many things which I have yet to discover about EF. I can spend hours on their site and feel like I still have tons more to read and learn.

I am so proud to be a part of Eden Fantasys and congratulate them on their "O" award! I am really glad to be a part of the team! :)

May the force be with you all!!

A drawer full of schoolgirl skirts

We spent most of the day cleaning yesterday. We had some free time so we decided to go through our bdsm toys and outfits/lingerie. We got a new locked box (a beautiful chinese chest) to put our toys into but we wanted to go through them first. I was amazed at how many toys that we own!! We have all kinds of different straps, paddles, whips, floggers and also sex toys as well. Anakin laughed when he saw all the vibrators that I had. lol! I've expanded my collection by joining Eden Fantasys a few months ago. I've got lots of different kinds of vibes from the Hitachi to the new Serenity that I'll be reviewing next month. My hitachi is starting to wear down from 4 years of use. Had tons of orgasms from it but it's time for a new one!

We cleaned up all the toys and had to throw a few things out unfortunately. Our ping pong paddle was way too worn and used. It was coming apart. So was our first riding crop. It's always sad to throw away old toys because some of them have some really great memories attached to them. But it's always nice to replace them with newer toys to make new memories with. I tend to get a bit sentimental about my toys sometimes.

I went through a lot of my costumes. A few of those are getting too old and worn out as well. I mentioned to Anakin that I owned quite a few schoolgirl skirts. lol. I am putting up a picture of them in my drawer all organized and ready to go. A schoolgirl skirt for every mood that Anakin might be in. I own a traditional green schoolgirl skirt. A prep one. A naughty one. A longer red one. I also own several white blouses to go with them. Can you tell that my mean old man has a bit of a fetish? :P

We have been collecting toys since 1997 and have really expanded our collection the last few years. A girl can never have enough toys though. My wishlist is fairly large over at EF and there are still many new toys that I'd like to try one day. :)

May the force be with you all!!

A beautiful day at Harrison Hot Springs


I'm having a really great weekend so far. Yesterday was amazing! Anakin took the day off work and we headed to Harrison Hot Springs. One of our favorite places to visit. They are having their Festival of the Arts happening right now. We really enjoyed a fun family day at the festival. We brought both of the kids. We had lunch and shopped at the vendors and gift stores. I enjoyed an hour with having some girl time with the teen. We enjoyed an iced mocha together and caught up on all the teen drama going on.

There was free concerts in the park and lots of beautiful scenery of Harrison Lake and beach. We were really surprised that there wasn't many people there. And the weather was also very nice as well. Harrison Hot Springs is a very romantic lake. I had my honeymoon there with Anakin and stayed at the resort. We saw a newly wedded couple going down to our "special place on the lake" to take pictures. I got to go for a very long walk by myself around the lake. It was really good exercise and very peaceful. Some Canadian geese came out from the lake onto the beach and got pretty close to me. I was almost able to reach out and pet one of them. Really cool!

The water was so blue and pretty. Harrison is a beautiful place. A lake surrounded by mountains and a small town kind of feeling to it. I always enjoy visiting no matter what time of year it is. Last time I was at Harrison was in January when it was pouring rain. This time it was sunny and feeling alive with the festival happening.

I posted several pictures of my fun day onto my twitter account. (https://twitter.com/#!/padmeamidala) You can check them out there! I am plan to post a few more too in the next week. I also have a very sexy picture that was taken last night to post for HNT next week. :)

It was a very romantic day for me as well as fun. Anakin surprised me with a beautiful necklace from one of the gift stores at the lake. It's a beautiful starfish that sparkles. I absolutely love it!! Anakin says that it reminds him of the beach and of me. He wants me to wear it as a type of daytime collar. A necklace which reminds us of our love. Thank you Master!

We made love last night and it was so incredibly romantic and special. I am going to try to write a separate blog post about it though. A very special night after a fun day at Harrison Hot Springs. Harrison has always brought Anakin and I closer together. I feel so in love with him right now and lucky to be his wife and slave.

May the force be with you all!!

Happy HNT - Sandy feet

Happy HNT (Half-Nekkid Thursday) everyone! I wanted to put up a summer themed HNT this week. This was taken during one of our summer trips that we took. I am wearing my cute little anklet. I love the beach and being able to put my feet into the warm sand from the sun. One of the best parts about going to the beach! :D

Hopefully I'll be able to put my feet into the sand this weekend when we go to Harrison Hot Springs. I love how the sand feels between my toes. Am really hoping the weather will be great for the Festival of Arts. We plan to take the whole family and I'm really excited about it! :D

Please leave us a comment on the picture. We always appreciate the feedback on our pictures. Check out Osbasso's blog if you are interested in participating in the HNT series.

A Master and his whip

I posted a toy review a few days ago but forgot to post one of the pictures. I think it's a good one to put up because there are not a lot of pictures of Anakin on this blog. lol. I think most of the pictures are of me and my bottom or tits. I got to grab the camera from him during the play and snapped this picture of him holding onto the Lelo Sensua Suede whip and about to give my ass some attention. I'm glad he enjoys the whip as much as I do. I can't wait until he uses it on my bottom again! :D

Sensua suede whip review


I am always happy to test out a spanking toy to review! This toy looked so pretty and fun to try! The Sensua suede whip is a really fun toy to spank with and get spanked by! Eden Fantasys has a great selection of floggers! Check them out!

About the toy: The Manufacturer is LELO. (LELO makes very good quality toys. I own several of them.) It is made of plastic and suede. The suede makes the tails of the whip feel very soft and luxurious. It is made of sheepskin suede and is very high quality.

The suede whip comes in a very pretty sturdy black cardboard box which says "LELO" on it. This is a perfect box for storing it and keeping it safe. The Sensua whip is a bit smaller than I had expected. It is 14" long and the weighted metal ball handle measures in at 5.5" long. There are 34 solid sturdy strands to the flogger.

The handle is light and clear as well as comfortable for the spanker to use. It is not a heavy flogger like our big one from Bound2Please. The tails of the whip are attached well to the handle of it. Mine was a purple color but you can buy either black or red if you don't like that one. It is affordable also. ($39.99) I know that the toy would be a lot more expensive if I bought it in an adult store in downtown Vancouver.

There is no wrist loop to the flogger though unlike some other ones I've seen. This is one of the few drawbacks to the toy.

Toy Review: This toy is a really nice one to get spanked by. It is a great warm up toy if you are hoping to have a long play session. Anakin was able to use it for quite a while on my bottom without worry about cutting or major bruising from it. There is a bit of a thudy sensation from it when being spanked. It's solid but yet not heavy enough for the extreme play.

This toy would be perfect for beginnings of bdsm who don't want to play with heavy toys. This toy isn't intimidating as other big floggers and is fun for even the heavier of players to bdsm. We both enjoyed it as a warm up toy. My ass can always take a much harder beating if it's been warmed up properly.

It was a heavy enough whip to redden my ass nicely. Anakin spanked me with it for about half an hour and left a really nice sting to my bottom before we used other heavier toys. This toy is small and slick enough to use in the most sensitive of spots also. He flogged my tits with it as well as inner thighs and even a bit on the pussy too! (I recommend using a suede cleaner on it to keep it clean after use)

Our big flogger was way too big to be able to do that. I would have much preferred to have started with this as our beginner flogger instead of that big heavy one we got a few years ago. This one was perfect sized and really nice to play with!

Anakin really enjoyed teasing me all over my body with it. He remarked to me that he could see himself using this one a lot on me in the future. We were both happy to add this to our toy collection. :) Anakin took several pictures of the new toy. I'm wearing my new schoolgirl skirt in one picture which was also from Eden Fantasys! They have some really cute schoolgirl outfits. :)

Toy Rating: I'm giving this toy a 4 out of 5. I think it's a really good quality toy and most couples would really enjoy this toy. This may be too small for some though and not a big enough flogger for those looking for heavier bdsm play and wanting bruises from it. I am really happy with this toy though and know we will be using it a lot more. I'm happy to add this to our toy collection.

Anakin's thoughts on the toy: "This is one cool looking flogger. Its tinted transparent purple handle is simply beautiful. It's also heavier than I expected, giving a very solid feel during use. The ball on the end of the handle effectively prevents the flogger slipping out of your hand since the handle itself is very smooth. This flogger has a fairly short, soft strands on it, which has two benefits. 1) You can swing it hard without fear of overdoing it (always start out light and slow of course), and 2) it's quite accurate as it's pretty hard to miss your target with this length of flogger. Overall, I like it a lot. I can see this flogger being fun to use for warm up or light play all over the body."


Thank you so much, EdenFantasys for allowing me to try out this toy in exchange for an honest and fair review. I've really enjoyed being a part of the Eden Fantasys sex community.

Thank you EdenFantasies! Please be sure to check out their great selection of sex toys and sexy stuff! They have a very nice selection of bondage and fetish stuff too! They have a great selection of different paddles. Be sure to check it out! They are a really great adult toy store with many more toys that I'd like to test out. It seems like my wish list is getting bigger every day. :D

May the force be with you all!!

A relaxing day at the lake



It's been a really nice summer so far. I am a bit behind in some of my blogging about it all. I also have a toy review that will be going up in the next few days. It is really hard to be on the computer during the summer sometimes. The weather is nice and I want to be outside. Last weekend we were at White Rock beach. This weekend we went to Cultus Lake in Chilliwack. Next weekend we are heading out to Harrison Hot Springs for the Festival of Arts that will be happening there.

I'm an outdoor girl. I don't like to be inside when the sun is shining. There are so many beautiful places to visit on a nice day in Vancouver. White Rock will always be one of my favorites. Fish N chips on the beach while breathing in the ocean air. Ahhhh...nothing can relax me more than a day or night at the beach. We've talked about buying an oceanfront house when Anakin retires. I would love to live out the rest of my life walking along the beach. There is never any stress at the beach. Just the ocean air and waves crashing into the shore. I love that we can hop into our car and be at the beach in just half an hour.

Cultus Lake is beautiful also. A beautiful lake surrounded by mountains. Fresh cool water that you can see through. It's unpolluted and a real beauty. We brought a picnic lunch and headed out into the sunshine in the country. Chilliwack is very underrated. I'm not sure if some people realize how beautiful of a community it is. We love Yarrow which is next to Chilliwack. Fruit and veggie stands and barns and lots of horses and open fields.

Chilliwack is known for it's corn. (which we brought some back with us) You can't go to Chilliwack without picking some corn up and also filling up the gas tank. The prices are a lot better than where we live. Cultus Lake is one of the best parts about Chilliwack. It was crowded yesterday with people stretched out all over. We are not alone in our desires to be outdoors during the summer. The best time to visit is sometimes in the Fall or Winter when there is hardly anyone there. But we didn't mind the crowds too much yesterday. We had our own perfect spot by the lake and our son was able to find a friend to play with.

We really enjoyed our visit to Cultus Lake. My son brought a surf board and went swimming. I was really relaxed for the rest of the night. Anakin and I were both too tired to be naughty last night but we had spent the last two nights together. We had fucked on Thursday night and he had given me several orgasms. Then we had an overnight on Friday and played as well as some rough anal sex. I had several more orgasms. It was just what we needed. We connected and our force is feeling very strong. I feel very submissive and deeply in love with my Master. :D

How's your summer going so far?

May the force be with you all!!

Happy HNT - Fiery Redhead

Happy HNT (Half-Nekkid Thursday) everyone! This picture was taken last weekend during an overnight with Anakin. I was wearing some new lingerie that I got from Eden Fantasys. It's really sexy!! I never noticed that Anakin was taking my picture from behind.

You can see how long my hair has gotten!! I've been growing it out. It's kind of funny to think that a few years ago I was a blonde and now you can't even tell. I love being a red head! Makes me feel so sexy! Click on the picture to get a better look at it. By the way...that is my naturally curly hair. I never curled it and haven't dyed it in weeks. I've been wanting to cut it but Anakin prefers me with long hair.

I get my red hair from my Dad. He was a red head too. My grandpa's nickname was "red" because of how red his hair was. All the red heads I've known have had wild tempers. I do too. Push me far enough and you'll see it come out. :D

Please leave us a comment and let us know what you think of the picture. We always appreciate your feedback on our pictures. Check out Osbasso's blog if you are interested in participating in the HNT series.

Sleepy sex in the morning

I've been going to bed early a lot these days. I'm not sure why but I've felt more tired than usual. The kids are home on summer vacation now so it's been harder to find time for myself or even with Anakin.

We haven't had sex in a few days and he was starting to get a bit more rough and controlling than usual. I can always sense when he really wants sex and is getting very frustrated with having to wait. Darth Vader is not a patient man!!He wants to be able to take me when he wants me. Unfortunately that's a bit hard with two older kids in the house.

So we squeeze the time into where we can take it sometimes. Even if that means at 5 am before he goes to work. I was in the middle of a dream when I suddenly felt his touch on my legs and then my pussy. He started to kiss me and then finger me to get me wet and excited. It took me a few minutes to get alert enough to function. I could feel his hard on rubbing up against my ass. A few threats (whispers in my ear) about anal sex and then he fucked my pussy. I honestly couldn't deal with anal sex that early in the morning!! I hadn't even had my first cup of coffee yet. lol. :P

The sex was amazing!! He thrust into my pussy and came hard. He had to clean up quickly though and get to work. "What about me" I pouted at him. He gave me that Domly look of his and told me that I could cum but only if I was a good girl today and also thought about him while I masturbated.

I enjoyed some hitachi time and thought about our play last Friday night. The rough anal which got me back into line. I've been feeling a lot more submissive since then. I came hard as I remembered his cock deep in my ass and how controlling that felt. Mmm...a very big orgasm to start my day! Thank you Master! :D

A really great start to my hump day! Happy hump day!

May the force be with you all!!

Happy July 4th!

Happy July 4th to our readers who are celebrating it today! Today is a pretty regular day for us Canadians. Anakin is back at work after a 4 day long weekend. It's just a normal boring day for us today. I have celebrated a July 4th before though and it's very special and amazing to see. I was in Las Vegas 11 years ago today with my sister. We went on a trip together because we were both at a crossroads in our lives. That trip would change our lives forever.

I can remember seeing the fireworks over the strip. Wow!! It was absolutely incredible. I decided to stay up all night watching them. I watched the Vegas sunrise and thought about Anakin. I had no idea that I was pregnant at that moment. I had conceived our son the night before I left. Anakin says that he knew something special was going on when he dropped me off at the airport. Skywalker completed our family. I can't imagine our lives without him.

I have been thinking about Anakin since I got up this morning. Thinking about that July 4th and how our relationship changed and evolved from that trip to Vegas. We've sure come a long way since then. We are now married and are raising two kids together. This November we will have been together 15 years! And we've been best friends for 21 years this fall. It honestly feels like forever to me though. I don't remember my life without Anakin in it. All my memories are of him. I am more in love with him than ever!! We've worked really hard to get to where we are today. I love our family. I love our life. And I love him. I'm so in love you with you Anakin!

May the force be with you all!!

Canada day celebrations downtown Vancouver


I am having a really great Canada Day long weekend!! It's been a really nice few days with Anakin. We've gone for long walks and also had an overnight with no kids yesterday. We decided to head downtown Vancouver to participate with some Canada Day celebrations at Canada place.

This was on my bucket list and something I've always wanted to do. I've been to Canada day celebrations in other places but not downtown before. It was pretty crowded at Canada place but lots of fun! There was live bands and good food and the Olympic flame too! I had such a fun time! We didn't stay for the fireworks but enjoyed some time down there before heading home to play.

I posted a bunch of pictures on twitter as well as sharing a few today for our blog. I also get to cross something off my list!

#44 -Go downtown Vancouver for Canada Day celebrations

Anakin and I have been able to reconnect the last few days as well. We've had sex the last three nights in a row. We've also played the last two nights. My bum is SORE!!! And I feel a lot more centered and submissive than I did a few nights ago. I hope to blog more about it all next week! It's a beautiful day and I want to be out in the sunshine today! I love long weekends. :D

May the force be with you all!!
