Domestic Sluttery Birthday Bingo


As you might have noticed from the huge passionfruit cake and the overexcited tweeting about our party later tonight, it's our birthday! We're five (FIVE! HALF A DECADE!) this weekend and we've been popping champagne prosecco corks since this morning.

To celebrate, we've decided to get started on the party games early and we've created Domestic Sluttery Bingo! Over the last five years you might have got a little familiar with out patter (try and argue with us about how excellent gin and unicorns are, I dare you), so we've compiled a few things that we're likely to hear around these parts.

Want to play? Try and find all those things above and leave a comment below with details when you've found them. We bang on about them all so much that it won't take you long. We'll pick five (obviously) winners and send you surprise things in the post. (Chocolate, it's going to be chocolate bars. We haven't actually bought them yet, we're too busy celebrating and freaking the cat out with party blowers.) It's just a little fun, really. You could also list a whole bunch of new things for us to obsess over for the next five years. Maybe we'll move onto puppies and regular horses. (Nope.)

Happy Sluttery birthday, everyone. Thank you so much for hanging out with us every day. Here's to another five excellent years.

  1. Etsy, Esty, Etsy!! I like cats.....I love cats, but sorry no not foxes - cute, granted but all my ex-battery girls do disagree.
    Be yourself; unless you can be a unicorn but CATS into unicorns - I'm so excited I could burst!!
    Who could not love cake either?! 'Let her eat cake' sluttishly boozy cake, seasonal cakes, five a day cakes or a perfectly simple quick mix presented on a potty mouth, bunny blossom or Chintz pricely plate and the perfect cuppa - China a must. Scene set in a beautiful vintage tea dress with the bedazzling chit chat of style iconic Liberace....in a diamante cape ;) - can you just image!
    After all this sugar a sluttery bacon obsession is required, DIY curing or greedily moreish scratchings....I going to need a wise owl to watch over me and the wisdom of Cher to advise....or just maybe a lil something stronger is my thing. Cocktails or gin 'o'clock??? Or the heady blend of both..the Old Fashioned! With a good smattering of glitter, make up, shoes, nail and more, tonight's going to be a good night!!
    With the promise of a morning ache then Bovril is my wolf in sheep's clothing, it maybe Spring but it is just the thing - a 'Sexy' hair of the dog....now isn't that worthy of Cap Locks importance?!! :D

    10. Cocktails. This molecular G&T from March 12 looks like a lot of fun! http://www.domesticsluttery.com/2012/03/boy-and-his-poison-molecular-gin-and.html

    11. Bovril. This also took a search, seems there's a Bovril Cocktail from December 10. Probably not going to be trying it. http://www.domesticsluttery.com/2010/12/cocktail-hour-sexy-bovril.html
