Live at the Playboy Mansion!… (pics)
So… I gotta tell you. I didn’t know what to expect.
It was supposed to be a Rock-n-Roll night with all kinds of Rock Stars Performing.
Including Steven Tyler.
Oh Yeah.
And, god knows that if I had to “do” a Rock Star… Steven Tyler would be the number one.
I mean look at him…
Now… I know that this is the same pic that I posted yesterday…
And, I know that I told you that he was going to kiss my hand…
I know I told you that.
But, what happened was so much better!
Eeeek!
It’s true.
So there I was amongst the crush of the audience.
And, I have to tell you that I did look divine!
I decided to go 80’s Retro Bouffant Rock Glam!
Check it out —
Now I am already having a wild time even before I hit the red carpet–
I am hitting up the bar…Of course. Hello? I am at a party, right? And then in walks….
Before you know it, I am having drinks with

Vinny Appice (Black Sabbath and Dio) & Phil Soussan (Billy Idol and Osbourne) being interviewed by gal from “E”
Plus, let us not forget our Dear Steven…
That’s right!
Steven Tyler, you silly kids.
Now I have to tell you a little story about this cute little Steven Tyler.
Yes, yes, of Aerosmith. That’s right. Now let me talk.
He was onstage, doing things that only Steven Tyler can do.
Yeah, just use your imagination, kay?
And, he come off stage and comes around the center of the audience and then behind the safety of a cluster of instrument panels.
Safety, huh?
Well, I just followed him right around… standing there drooling like everybody else, right?
Hey, I need to be honest here.
Yeah. We were drooling.
Men and Women alike.
Have we no shame?
Well… no.
No. We have no shame.
Now that we’ve got that over with.
All of a sudden this pathway opens up going right toward him.
It’s like it was calling me… “Belle! Belle!”
Well, that’s my f-ing-name, right?
So I followed it. I followed it so that I was right next to the bunny, Steven, and the other bunny and then ME!
Hell, I could take that bunny out, no problem.
But, I am a little better than that. Not much, but a little, okay?
So I lean over in front of bunny number one.
I say, “Hey Steven! I’m Belle Karper.”
And he turns and says four inches from my face. FOUR INCHES!
He says to me, “Hey Beautiful!” (Hey Beautiful is not too shabby, so I’ll take it!)
I say, “I think you’re just wonderful!”
“Thank you!” he says.
Then I say, “Hey, I want you to tell Phillip Phillips (p2) that–“
“Who?”
“Phillip Phillips of American Idol,”
“Oh yeah, Okay?”
“I want you to tell him that he has the Cougar Vote!”
He started laughing and he said, “I will!”
And, then I joke you not, he tickled my tummy!
TICKLED MY TUMMY!
I may never wash there for the rest of my life!
How’s that for an adventure!

Flew Back From Cancun, and Boy, Are My Arms Tired (Video)
So, it goes like this . . .
Well, as you may or may not know I just got back from Cancun. We had a rowdy time just me and my chick girlfriends.
Here’s a clip our kayaking adventures — we are a bunch of knuckleheads!
And, NO! That is not me leaning back in that Kayak… Please!
However…
We are just a bunch of idiots!
YouTube, baby! Here we go!

Pumpkin Goo… and The Essence of Thanksgiving! (Pics)
So, it goes like this . . .
So people want to know what my pumpkin goo is…
Well…
Pumpkin Goo is my interpretation of pumpkin pie without the crust. I bake it for 5 hours until the moisture is almost completely gone, and then I force my family to eat it with Cool Whip and tell them it’s actually pumpkin pie.
I think they bought it…
Can you believe that I got compliments?
I am a horrible cook.
I really don’t even know why I try sometimes, but my husband… my husband is incredible!
Super yum.
I would love for him to cook every single day, not only for the fact that he is an excellent cook but also for the fact that then I wouldn’t have to be in the kitchen.
Boooo-ring.
I can’t help it that I am not a Martha Stewart kind of girl.
Have you ever seen one of Martha Stewart’s television shows?
Like I would want to party with her.
It would be much like sleeping, but only awake… and on a bountiful table of sun-toasted greens and mixed hay on a a bed of sea salted crusties.
Snooze-ville.
So, yeah… my family is used to my own interpretations of many holidays.
I am not bound by tradition.
I draw outside the lines, baby.
Always have, always will.
It is not a mistake that my family loves my Pumpkin Goo since they have been raised on cripy black hot dogs, blue-box mac-and-cheese, and Albertson’s Monday Chicken Meal deals from the market.
Frankly, they crave my Pumpkin Goo since it is the closest thing to home-made food… once a year… 😉
… that is not burnt.
I’m a really great person for love, though.
Got tons of love.
Never out of love.
I am the Queen of Love.
But… cooking… how you say… not so much.
I do believe that Thanksgiving is about Food AND Love.
So… One out of two isn’t bad. A 50% success rate is not too shabby on a day that has some serious cooking in it, right?
That is the essence of Thanksgiving to me… my Pumpkin Goo, and someone else making all the rest of the great food, and lots of love.
Yeah, like ample amounts of love.
Like my mom crying when she says how much she loves us…
And, then at that vulnerable moment I throw some more Pumpkin Goo on her plate…
Just kidding.
I also sneak on some more Cool Whip.
It’s all good… including the Pumpkin Goo.
And, the love.
And, the yelling that the rolls are getting burned.
Yelling is a big part of Thanksgiving.
Loud love.
Lots of loud love.
Lots of love…
Hope your day was over flowing!
xoxo
Be well,

Bite Me! (Pic)
So, it goes like this . . .
Here I am having lunch with my husband… beautiful chicken teriyaki and shrimp on skewers… and I noticed that he has on the shirt that I got for him last fall.
Once you see this your going to understand why it was definitely from me.
You all by now understand my sense of humor and sometimes I’m a little quirky.
To say the least.
I say, “Hey, you are wearing that Halloween shirt that I got you last year! Yeah! Why do you have it covered up?”
“Well I went into the plant today because they were having a Halloween celebration, and so I wore my special Halloween shirt.”
“Yeah, and…”
“Well, H.R. thought that it might offend some people.”
Wow… let me think about that… that I would buy something for my husband that might offend someone…
Hmmm?
That doesn’t sound like me. (Wink, wink).
So, leave it to me to buy something for my husband that would offend certain parts of the population.
Dang.
I hate it when that happens.
And, he has to cover it up with another shirt.
Aww… the embarrassment.
How could I?
Well, I’ll tell you… I did it with a MasterCard, and it was quite easy.
So H.R. told my husband that he better button up his overshirt and hide it.
He told H.R., “Bite me!”
Now, THAT’S the guy I know and love!
H.R. laughed as he walked out the door.
So, on this beautiful Halloween Eve…
I only have one thing to say to all of you…
“Bite me!”
Be well,
Belle

Meet Ma and Pa Kettle…My Parents and Pics!
So, it goes like this . . .
Okay, let’s face it they’re not going to be exactly thrilled that I called them “Ma & Pa Kettle.”
And, also please don’t point out the fact that I am showing my age by even knowing who “Ma & Pa Kettle” are…
I am aware of this disastrous revelation.
But, really… I am not THAT old.
And, if you think that I AM that old, then I am truly complimented because I look absolutely amazing for a 80-year old woman…
So, “Ma & Pa Kettle”…
FYI, they are not the thing that is sitting on your stove.
Nor are they cute little salt and pepper shakers.
I really don’t think I’m here to educate you, Dahhhhhhhlings… so Google it, baby… if you must.
In any event, these are pictures of the fine procreators that got together on one chilly fall evening to make the life-changing event that would happen nine months later…
Me! Moi!
Si.
Okay… so I’m bilingual.
Uh… trilingual.
My husband is very appreciative of my lingual abilities… 😉
So, without any further ado…
Oh, and don’t forget to read “GAMEY at the Game” post — great fun!

Mom and I... Chicks on a Mission...

My delightful husband and my groovy Dad!

Me... about to have a freaking heart attack at the game... AAAAAh!

Mom, Dad, Me... Oh yeah, and the reason why we are here -- "The Boy!"
Be well,
Belle

I Woke Up Sounding Like Demi Moore…
So, it goes like this . . .
I woke up sounding like Demi Moore.
Scratchy.
With a bit of a Southern Accent.
It would have sounded sexy if I didn’t have a fever and was feeling crappy.
My mood is good, but my body is lagging behind the game.
Bummer.
Good point, is that whoever talks to me on the phone has said that my voice has got them thinking naughty thoughts . . . too bad I don’t feel like acting on those thoughts today.
Double Bummer.
Be well, and I can get better!

A Lot Going On in the Mirror . . .
I was waiting in the house . . . for my son . . . waiting . . .
“Why are you late?”
“I was looking in the mirror,” he said.
“What?”
“Looking in the mirror.”
“Right.”
“Right, yeah, uh-huh. Just look at me, mom . . . I’ve got a lot happening here.”
“Yeah?”
“See, yeah, right?” he nods assumptively, as if I should already know this.
I swear the way kids talk these days.
So, he walks away from me. And, I am still standing there . . . waiting . . .
“What are you doing?” I ask him.
“I’m looking in this mirror here,” and he points to the mirror in the entry. He has now gone from the upstairs mirror in his bathroom, now to the downstairs mirror next to me.
But, it’s really as if I am not there at all.
“Yeah, so?”
“Yeah, mom, looking in the mirror here. Checking me out.” he says . . . “This may take a while . . . ”
He smiles into mirror. Does a little smirky thing that is supposed to entice another 14-year old girl to join his harem. He tosses his head, and his hair lands in the perfect skater-boy swish to the side of his face. He does a chin nod, to confirm his studliness. He is entranced by his own boyish “Man”liness. So bewitched, that he is not moving.
“Uh . . . Okay, honey. Well . . . uh . . . I ‘m going to go into the other room and watch TV,” and I begin to walk down the hall. “Are you going to come with me?”
“Is there a mirror in there?”
“Uh . . . yeah.”
He starts to follow me. Still in his 14-year old year old innocence, in 20-feet he will know that I lied. Poor thing. I guess he’ll have to watch the TV instead.
Aaaaaah. To be 14 again.
I guess he’s got a lot going on there . . .
Gotcha! He’s such a funny kid.
Unfortunately, he barely looks in the mirror. That, and the shower, another aversion of the 14-year old male soul.
Be well,
Belle
So, y’all come back, now. Ya’ hear?
