Like a lot of submissives, I appreciate having something to remind me of an enjoyable play session. It might be bruises from a cane, a hidden bitemark or, as was the case a few weeks back, a heart carved into my chest. Days or even weeks after the event, seeing these physical reminders can put a smile on my face and a little rush of happiness in my heart. Most don’t last much beyond that. Even the scalpel work on my chest is slowly fading and will probably be gone by the end of the month. And yet this weekend I stumbled across something from a session back in 2011 that achieved that same effect. It was a jar of Crystal Hot Sauce.
I’m a keen cook. I’m also pretty organized about labeling, checking dates and throwing old stuff out. Despite this, like a lot of kitchens, I still have that one shelf where odd cans and unused jars migrate to. It’s the graveyard shelf, where strange non-perishable items that I’ll probably never use lurk. I decided to dig up and cleanse my kitchen graveyard this weekend, and the Crystal Hot Sauce was lurking right at the back, unopened. I stared at it for a good while before I remembered the reason I’d purchased it. It was because Lydia had dripped it all over my cock back in a chemical play session in 2011.
I guess technically I didn’t buy it because of its effect on my genitals. At the end of the session I’d tasted it – from the bottle not the cock – and thought it was pretty good. I even said so in my post at the time, and added I’d be purchasing it to keep in the kitchen. I’m clearly a man of my word. That jar, purchased a day or two after the session, stayed unopened in my kitchen for 2171 days.
It’s sadly gone now. It probably lasts forever, but I figure if you don’t use a sauce in the first 6 years of its life, you’re probably not going to use it in the next 6. However, before it disappeared to the big BBQ in the sky, it did give me a smile and a burst of happy memories of that session with Lydia.
This is Mistress Sidonia of The English Mansion doing some chemical play of her own. In this case she’s going in the opposite direction to hot sauce, with a deep cold rub. I’m sure it’ll be equally invigorating for the man in the bed.
A “momento” Paltego? Dear me. Might have to be a trip to the Editor Domme for you!

Quite annoying because I think writing lines in a classroom scene is more my thing than yours. Oh well. Off you go.
Hmmm. I could quote this as my defense: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/momento
It’s a “Variant of memento from association with memorable moments.” and “The alternate spelling momento is so common, some references now no longer consider it a misspelling.”
Although if I’m honest, it was more a typo than me using the alternative form. Although I do like the idea of a momento being a memento of a moment.

I love editordomme. I really wish she would write more often.
We were having some fun a while back exchanging barbs on some captioned photos that I had highlighted on one of my other Tumblrs:

Also, my ex used to say “momento” and it grated the hell out of me.
I hadn’t seen her tumblr till recently but yes, I’m a fan as well now. Funny stuff. I saw your back and forth with her – made me smile 🙂
