Beyond the Bedroom: exotic expertise

This Valentine’s Day, say goodbye to chocolates and flowers. Sure, they can be nice, but what else could you do to show your sweetie that you really care? You know what your lover really wantsčsomething unique, something passionate, and something romantic.

Nothing says romance like these kinky, sensual, steamy and indulgent gifts that are sure to make your Valentine’s Day more intense than that pint of double choco-fudge ice cream you ate last night while watching Sex and the City. Yeah, you thought no one knew about that...

Turn your lover into a work of art with The Lover’s Paintbox. This set includes one finely crafted brush (oh so ticklish!), three flavors of chocolate paint (oh so delicious!) that can be painted on any part of the body and licked off and a beautiful box to store it in. Flavors include dark, milk and white chocolate. By Kama Sutra, $46.

Keep your hottie in the dark with the Red Hot Lover’s Kit. Set includes pretty red blindfold to keep your darling guessing what’s coming next (or who’s coming next), 10-inch leather whip just in case your sweetie has been naughty, an adjustable soft cock ring to make everything much more intense for your man and a pretty bag in which to give the gift. By Smitten Kitten, $19.99

Best Sex Writing 2006, edited by Felice Newman and Frederique Delacoste (2006), Cleis Press. In the 224 pages of raunchy, in-your-face glimpses of love, lust and exploitation (sexploitation is more like it), you and your pookie can find things to agree with, things to try out and things to argue about; most of all, it can heat things up. Most couples don’t get very far into this book without their clothes ending up on the floor! Cleis Press, $14.95.

Vanilla Bondage is a nice contrast to all the steam you’ve been making in the bedroom. Hide the vanilla in the freezer while using the blindfold and two white seven-foot restraints to heat things up. Once the bedroom is plenty hot, grab the vanilla and spread it all over your lover’s body and lick it up to cool things down. Might I suggest the chest, the stomach, or the inner thighs as possible vanilla dripping zones? Once the vanilla runs out, you can keep using the blindfold and the restraints with crushed ice in place of the vanilla. By Ducky Doolittle, $13.

Prevent that “uh, honey, you’re making me numb” awkward feeling with System JO Warming lube. Water-based, glycerin-free and high-quality, this lube works perfectly with condoms or for your silicone toys. It has natural peppermint, which causes a tingling sensation with no ramifications (unlike other so-called “warming” lubes). System JO, $14.

All of these gifts are available at The Smitten Kitten, 3010 Lyndale Ave. in Minneapolis or at www.SmittenKittenOnline.com
