Sweeten the Valentine’s Day Honey Pot

Ah, the sweet beginnings of love, love, love… They start with cute grins, fluttering eye lashes, stolen glances and then pet names roll off the tongue like Wookums, Pookie, Love Nugget and Cuppy Cake. Such manifestations of love are better left to the privacy of one’s own home…Sugar Britches! Keep it simple…Honey. It’s perfect. Not too over the top sweet, natural, with just a hint of edginess to it if you put a deep roll to it from the recesses of your throat. Give your Babylicious Poohbear your sexiest kitten eye flutter and he’ll know he’s just the Bee’s Knees in your book without all the Gummie Bear Doll Face names.
