The Long Hot Summer

Feel The Heat
Kristin Cavallari & Justin Anderson

Typically Labor Day Weekend is the last hurrah of Summer. Well since no one is really on any sort of schedule resembling typical this year and there is record heat happening everywhere let's just call this the long hot Summer, shall we? We shall!!!

Nothing truly says long, hot and Summer quite like this photo of Kristin Cavallari and her BFF Justin Anderson. Kristin posted this picture on her Instagram page with a caption reading: "Longest relationship of my life" - presumably meant to throw shade at the man formerly known as her husband Jay Cutler. Shade is a good thing during a long hot Summer after all...

Whether it was shade thrown or simply a testament to her and Justin's long standing friendship, or perhaps both. This photo makes temperatures rise and suddenly Summer got even hotter today.

Mic Drop!

3 More Days...

Muskrat Love?
Kristin Cavalarri & Jay Cutler 

Yep only three more days, if you have to ask until what, then I guess you must be living under a reindeer. Thus I thought we would celebrate today with the too cute for Christmas Couple Kristin Cavalarri & Jay Cutler.

With the Season 3 premiere of Very Cavalarri looming on Thursday, Jan. 9 at 9 p.m. ET, I thought perfect because commerce is part of what Christmas is all about. Don't pretend it isn't minions. 

Now that we got that our of the way, moving on, forward never backward, especially not sideways.

Other than the commercial tie in, this shot of the couple made visions of the video for the song Christmas Wrapping by The Waitresses dance in my head. If you aren't familiar that's what YouTube is for.

So now that I have some sort of Holiday feels, I guess I should think about spreading some Holiday Cheer. "Yes" it's time to Ho, Ho, Ho!

Hump Day & Chill

Red, Red, Wine...
Kristin Cavallari & Jay Cutler

Today's Hump Day & Chill is taking a departure from the usual exploitation of naked male skin.

"Yes" today we are celebrating two of my favorite Adult Beverages that I like to imbibe when I have had a rough shot week.

First and foremost, because it is the easiest to access, out of the starting gate and ready to rumble is Red Wine. Illustrated here by the cool as ice Kristin Cavallari and her manly stud of a husband Jay Cutler (yeah, I still had to have some stud flesh, it's Hump Day & Chill minions.)

One Olive, Or Two?
Jane Fonda & Lily Tomlin

Next up we have the martini, enjoyed by the timeless Jane Fonda on Andy Cohen's Watch What Happens Live with other fellow legend Lily Tomlin.

So Jane, is it a vodka or gin martini? I prefer mine gin, vodka is too obvious and easy.

What's your favorite Adult Beverage to Hump Day & Chill with? Do tell, not in a tattling way, in a confessional way.
