What’s in your nightstand drawer?
Posted by Lily on May 5, 2008
I think it’s important to have a well-stocked nightstand that includes a variety of items to enhance one’s sexual experience. Some of the items that I like to keep on hand are:
- lube: my current favorite is a silicone-based lubricant called “Swiss Navy.” There’s also KY, warming gel, and edible/flavored lube
- vibrator
- massage oil and lotion in favorite scents
- a variety of condoms–with & without spermicide, some novelty colors and flavors
Some items that I keep nearby, though not in the drawer:
- candles and matches
- an iPod dock for some iTunes playlists that are especially compiled just for our intimate time
- extra pillows
- a towel (though I think I’m going to adopt the red washcloth idea soon)
- lingerie
- sometimes our laptops are at hand so we can watch a bit of a movie together or do some internet searching on a particular topic
Earlier in our married years we had some sex reference books next to our bed. We’ve also had some items that haven’t remained a part of our nightstand cache. For example, handcuffs I found way too creepy [fyi, Sport Sheets products are a far safer, more comfy alternative to handcuffs]. We’ve had various edible concoctions and kama sutra potions that, while interesting for their novelty value, haven’t remained mainstays for us.
I’m curious…what’s in your nightstand drawer?
