The Kissing Closet

April 11th, 2011 by Laura M. Brotherson

kissing-closet-1-200px kissing-closet-2-200px

One affectionate couple found themselves being shoved into the kitchen pantry by their grossed-out children who didn’t want to see their parents kissing! (That’s a separate issue to tackle, if your children have a negative response to your PDA!)

This was the beginning of this couple’s regular romantic rendevous in their “Kissing Closet.” (Click here for their story.)

What a fabulously fun idea for couples!

Do You Have a Kissing Closet?

The kissing closet is a great idea for any couple to add a bit of fun and flirtatiousness (is that a word?) to their relationship. Do you have a “kissing closet?” Continue reading “The Kissing Closet” »

Recreating “The Kiss”

November 12th, 2010 by Laura M. Brotherson

The Kiss recreated 1 the-kiss-eisenstaedt_alfred-200pix

Had to share this darling picture that some friends took when visiting the USS Midway museum in Southern California. You all remember the famous picture “The Kiss” taken in Times Square at the end of World War II. Well apparently they’ve made a huge statue of it (located at the USS Midway museum).

My friends decided to recreate the experience (look closely at the bottom of the huge statue)! Too cute! This is definitely “The Kiss!” I encourage you all to go recreate The Kiss with your honey…even if it’s just in the middle of the living room! : )
