I know what it’s like to be several months or years into a relationship and feel like that zip-zap-zoom has dwindled down a blip-bleep-bloop. It’s tough to keep the sexy factor up there when the everyday-life-factor is in there. Who feels sexy when you see your dude accidentally put on his tighy-whiteys backwards every morning? Well, no matter where you are in your relationship, here are five ways you can seduce your man and crank up that sexy factor for the night. Read more
Hello, hello! Reading your #AskPatti questions on Twitter is a real highlight of my week. I wish I could answer them all! Alas, I’m just one woman with one keyboard and one really busy schedule. So I can’t do all of them. But, I am going to try to answer as many as I can this week. Welcome to #AskPatti: Rapid Fire Edition! Read more
A little while back, I met someone.

Today I am on the rooftop of the London Hotel, arguably one of the best views in the city. At sunset, this easily becomes one of the most romantic places in West Hollywood. Definitely remember this as a perfect date spot!
In order to get into the writing mood, I need two things: a good scenic view and a cocktail. Today, courtesy of the London, I am sipping on a “Ginger Blossom” while I take in a near perfect 75-degree sunset.
Juices are now flowing. Read more
