My hand slipped (or were my fingers just sweaty from the heat?) and I ended up on a list of words. A place where the computer tries to be gracious and asks if you really meant to look up the word YOU TYPED or SOMETHING ELSE (HINT HINT YOU DUMMY THERE'S NO SUCH WORD).
~
While scanning the list, I discovered some interesting words...like inamorata.
~
Isn't that beautiful?....the way it rolls off the tongue....inamorata.
~
Please...once again.......inamorata.
~
An inamorata is a woman you are in love with....an inamorato is a man you are in love with. ~
She is his inamorata.

(I feel a sudden urge to run down to Barnes and Noble and buy a romance novel....one with a smooth bare-chested man wearing a kilt......and nothing else....his long black hair and dark brown eyes staring into the wind....his right leg balancing on a boulder and showing off his oh so muscular thighs. )
(Yes, I know it is unlikely an Italian would wear a kilt, but this particular lad was kidnapped by pirates at birth and believes he's Scottish.)
~
Sigh.
~
I stumbled upon Amora....which also sounded interesting but was a bit disappointing. Amora is an Aramaic word for a Jewish scholar. Let's face it....scholars....whether Jewish, Chinese or Swedish..... do not mentally generate sexy wind-blown images for romance novels.
~
Just when I was about to click away.....I saw some another tag line. Amora...New Sex Museum Opens in London. What?
~
So I googled and yes indeed.....in April, 2007....the Brits opened a rather unique sex museum dedicated to love, sex and relationships. An interactive museum...where you can spend quiet time with a latex model...discovering P-Spots....G-Spots...and the oh so famous....X marks the spot.

They even have "learning stations." Where you can practice some of the fine sexual arts. Here's a man trying out a traditional paddle to spank a model (please note her silicon garter and thigh highs).. Notice also....his skills will be rated on the "Spankometer." (His partner has an interesting expression on her face....I can't tell if she's thinking ...wish that was me...or glad it's not me.)
~
There's also an aphrodisiac lounge and movie theater and an on site sex therapist available for consultation. (I wonder if cabs are waiting outside the museum ready to speed you back home or to the nearest hotel.)
~
Amazing.....and now....let me see if I can get back to finding that slushy recipe.
