interview with the minx
August 13 
It was inevitable.
Someone out there would eventually recognize my burgeoning über celebrity status and ensnare me into an interview, scandalous and revealing.
It so happens that the delectable and desirable Mr Honea, of Honea Express fame, has ensnared me so, probing his way beneath my epidermis in one outrageous attempt to expose a little of my soft underbelly...
The revelations of his interview are as follows:
1. You have excellent artwork on your site, do you have a favorite piece?
Ah, Mr Honea, you notice I am a patron of the arts.
I must say, given that I am also a creature of whim and fancy, my tastes run wildly in many directions. I am, however, deeply fond of photography, particularly of the human form. I especially like things of an erotic and perhaps darkly disturbing nature.
I love anything antique and absolutely swoon over vintage erotica.
I love paintings and while there is not a particular genre I am most enamoured of, I do like work in oils.
Much to my husband's chagrin, I have spent an exorbitant amount of money on artwork for our home in the past year and, while expense does not necessarily determine a good piece of art, I remain most impulsive and impressionable.
If I love it, I shall have it.
Like you, Mr Honea, I am a lover not a fighter. Thus, I accumulate...
To be honest, I cannot confess to having a favourite piece.
The picture displayed is one I particularly enjoy. It is by Australian artist Kellyann Denton and hangs in my bedroom, for inspiration, naturally...
2. I'll admit, the corset is damn sexy, but doesn't it get a little uncomfortable at times?
Deliciously so, Mr Honea.
I love my laces pulled and my organs displaced.
There's a fine line between pleasure and pain, it's true, and often they intersect.
Alarmingly.
I must say, being an indulgent creature, I prefer the pleasure.
I simply won't wear the corset when I take my walk.
3. What is your favorite wine?
Oh wine...sweet ambrosia of the Gods.
I am a wanton devotee of Bacchus...I kneel at his feet every evening.
I find myself overly partial to the Reds and especially the Shiraz, compelled to wax lyrical of its robust flavours, the meaty firmness of it's palate and the deliciously velvet mouthfeel.
Right now, quite literally, I am loving the Shiraz Viognier style.
Deep inky hues of Shiraz combined with the subtle infusion of perfumed white viognier make it a darkly sweet and intoxicating collaboration.
I recommend, with every fibre of my being, The (very Australian) Black Chook, Shiraz Viognier 2006, and the deliriously orgasmic Balthazar Shiraz Viognier 2002, twice as expensive, just as quickly drunk but absolutely worth it.
4. Do you ever find that your minxness gets in the way of your domesticness? Yes, I know those aren't real words.
Yes indeed it does, Mr Honea.
And I will add that the cleaning of the bath in one's corset is a pinching experience I won't recommend for the faint of heart.
Yet, despite the horrors thrown upon my path on a daily basis, I endeavour never to allow the bondage of domesticity to hinder my minxiness.
Alas, it is a challenge fraught with both danger and intrigue, and occasional disaster.
There exists an unholy alliance between the Minx and The Little Woman.
I try to pacify them in turn but my twin sides are apt to turn on each other.
It can be messy. And unproductive.
And quite a frolic!
Wheeee!
5. Who is sexier, Brad Pitt or Angelina Jolie?
These two are "the perfect couple" and you know, I don't necessarily buy into that whole perfection thing.
If you know me at all, you'll know that I am Mistress of The Little Details.
And I love the quirky details. I appreciate a little oddness, a little imperfection.
This perfection business conceived by The Media is an insidious thing...it permeates our subconscious until we're all aspiring to an unreal airbrushed unhealthiness that is simply not possible without botox, or worse: not living and accumulating the evidence of it.
I must say, up until late, I thought Angelina to be more sexy, although I love Brad's easy charm.
Meh...I admit to being more attracted to the likes of Adrien Brody and Johnny Depp..
I also love Sir Ian Mckellen..and he's old and he's gay and he's Gandalf. Go figure...
Bonus Question: Why are you always threatening to eat my children?
Your children are adorable, Mr Honea, and delicious.
Please accept it as the ultimate term of endearment that I should wish to eat them.
They remind me of my own children, grown large and unpleasant now with the passing of the years.
How many times I wished to swallow them whole.
Perhaps I should have done so, enjoyed the meal and spared myself the incessant horror that is the teenager...
..sigh..

Oh, we absolutely MUST be interviewed.
We can't wait for all the decadent and blasphemous answers and questions that will result from this unholy union of deviant minds.
Ah, well done, in true Minx fashion. You make me want to drink wine at 8am, among other things.
Ah Minx ... You are as intoxicating as the best wine or champagne. I find myself enthralled by your phrasing and choice of words. They conjur a painting in the minds of your readers. Only a well read and intelligent woman, such as yourself, could ever pull this off. And then there is your candor which is laced with a provocative yet inherent sweetness that shields the child within. A naughty playfulness delivered with ladylike politeness. In other words darling ... you've got class.
Come round to see my oil painting "Passion Flower," at my original site. I believe you will like it.
O, it is a delicious propostion indeed!!
I shall have some wicked fun deliberating over this devilry...
Ahh, one loves an unholy union...
xox
Darling Whit,
Driving a man to drink is a role I'm familiar with...
amongst other things...
8am is the perfect time for a champagne breakfast!
À votre santé, mon chere!
xox
Oh my lovely Theresa!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, darling girl!!
I raise my glass to you and, paying homage to my Celtic heritage, follow it with a lovely little Irish blessing, wishing you, amongst other delicious things:
For every storm, a rainbow,
For every tear, a smile,
For every care, a promise,
And a blessing in each trial.
For every problem life sends,
A faithful friend to share,
For every sigh, a sweet song,
And an answer for each prayer.
Sláinte!!

Is it wrong to be fascinated by unholy visions of the Minx and the Little Woman turning on each other?
I could do with a drink.
Shall I make you a Japanese Slipper or a Slippery Nipple?
Oh dear, even at this hour the unholy alliance is creating havoc!
Is it corset or cleaning products, dusting or deviancy?
I shall never get any polishing done at this rate!
Get behind me Satan!
xox
Oh, dare I bare my soul and allow myself to be probed by the Minx? I squirm with fear yet cannot pass up the opportunity.
Go ahead, my dear, Interview Me. Just be gentle..please..
xoxoxo
Rapunzel
Oh Rapunzel,
Fortune favours the brave, dearest one.
Let the probing begin!!
I will be gentle, yet firm...
xox
Lovely post and intriguing as usual. You're a beguiling creature, Minx.
I wish I could play, but this week is kicking my booty! I have to go out of town for two days to add to the fun.
Why did a birthday party sound like such a good idea?!
Ack!
Kisses,
Mistress M
Darling Margot!!
Out of town for two days as well as organizing your big do!!!
How do you do it my Atomic Tiki Girl?
I too have parties to organize for this very weekend.
It is my son Dan's birthday on Saturday, so we have a Bollywood extravaganza here at home on Friday night for the family followed by a boy's night on Saturday where he will be chanelling Hunter S Thompson in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas!
It is a hive of activity in my own little Tiki Lounge I can tell you!!!
I do wish I could pop over in some magical way and celebrate your big day with you, darling friend, I really do!!
Kisses across the sea xox

Absolutely loved your answers, you darling thing!
Bravo Blasphemous - and Offensive!!

Darling Paisley,
I have conducted two now and rather enjoy it, I must say..
Call me Parkinson!!
I love to poke and probe. Methinks the underbelly likes it somehow...
Would you like me to interview you, darling one?
You only have to ask...and I will send you five titillations...!
xox
I loved this! LOVED! I will be putting your wine selections on this weeks shopping list. I want to taste all of the the wonders that My Minx so enjoys.... I will toast in your honor.
xxoo
Oh gorgeous Meleah!!
Thank God you're back, darling!!
And in one piece too xx
A glass of wine will smooth out any rough edges, won't it!!
I do hope you'll be able to get your hot little hands on these sweet libations - no doubt they'll be horridly expensive with import thingies, but I stand by my recommendations!!
I suggest you come over here and share a bottle with me!!
Cheers!
xox
oh minx, you know I would love to be interviewed you!
My dear dark sister...
you have proven brave and open..fearless and adventurous as only a minx can be.
I invite you to interview me and feel free to ask whatever you wish. I have had no time to blog as of late due to what you refer to as domesticated details so I am hoping my honest responses to your prying but lovely questions will put me back in good graces with my blogging community..
fire when ready my loins are on standby, awaiting your curiousity and very much girded as previously discussed......
xoxo kk
Ps tomorrow I plan on scrubbing the tub in my finest corset drinking a large glass of shiraz..after yoga of course!
