For Those Who Love in the Language of Gifts
Dear Santa,
You are always so good to me. As the patron saint of sex workers (amongst other deserving people), I want to thank you for a year full of delicious people and most adventurous dates. Really, that’s all the presents I need! But if you *do* want to bring me a little extra for your special days or mine on January 7th, well Santa babe, I do have some ideas….
I’m tucked up in my bed, dreaming of these fit for a queen in queen teal sheets against my soft skin, and it sure would be nice if I could write my love letters to you on a new laptop. A pretty green bag and practical black duffel full of impractical but beautiful lingerie from ethical makers like this one would tickle my heartstrings into sitting on your lap and telling you all my secret desires.
Of course, I’m perfectly happy to greet you in nothing but this soft and dreamy faux fur or this sleek raincoat, with maybe a little sparkle from these artists.
I could fix you a little tipple of eggnog if you bring me a Vitamix, and nothing says you care like looking after each other by testing first before I plant a kiss on your rosy round cheek.
I’ll be dreaming of your laugh and jiggle as I tuck myself in tonight,
Yours by hook or by crook,
XOXO Ray.

Gifts are a language of love and lust
I delight in giving gifts and I know many of you do too! It can be hard to know just what to give. Thus I have made a little list of all the pretty, shiny, nerdy and naughty things that would tickle my fancy. Gifts are always appreciated and never expected.
Take me to outer space?
I am a voracious reader who loves speculative fiction, sci-fi, Afrofuturism, fantasy, horror, and political non-fiction. A gift card to my favourite bookstore, the community minded and Indigenous owned Massy Books , would be positively divine!
Sip into something more comfortable?
Nothing beats a delicate cocktail to accompany a good thick book.
My favourite Gins include: Tempo Dry, Hendrick's, Matsui The Hakuto, and Empress. I also adore top shelf and adventurous vodka and rum.
For Your Eyes Only
Want to see me in something special? I prefer ethically made, environmentally conscious brands, like Harlow and Fox, Studio Pia, Anoeses, and What Katie Did. When shopping locally, Forever Yours Lingerie have pretty things for all bodies including mine.
Speaking of which, if you prefer to pick something out rather than send me a gift card, my bra size is usually 34E, and panty and garter sizes are L or XL.
Treats for Self Care Days
For feel good flowers, tulips are my favourite. Salted caramels are my preferred chocolate or a gift card for Gluten Free Epicurean, Lemonade, or UberEats will satiate my sweet tooth without irritating my gluten allergy. My happy hound loves treats from True Carnivores and my face and body stay happy with products from Sephora or SKN.
