FROS from a Homegirl!

Sep 23rd 2007Your Friendly Goddesses
Your Friendly GoddessesGoddess Eye Candy

It’s For Refreshment Only Sunday here on Mt. Olympus and we’ve got a special treat for you all. This is not a picture of a famous actor, or a photo I found off the net of a hot guy. No, this is an actual, live, sexy male friend of one of our Goddess Readers, a true homegirl who posts under the name ‘Cookiedough.’

Yup, m’dears . . . imagine sitting down for coffee with your best friend and seeing THIS across the table:

Now since this sexy guy is a personal friend and not an abstract male pic, we asked for his permission and he said that so long as it wasn’t used in a negative way, he was all for it. Our Homegirl assured him that he would just be ‘eye candy for romance minded women.”

I like how she worded that.

He checked out our site, saw that we weren’t vultures, but True Appreciators, and agreed to allow us to post his pic. Ya’ll be sure to behave yourselves today; he may be reading your posts!

Btw, I’ve asked our Homegirl Goddess to keep to herself any non-romantic, spoil-the-fantasy facts she may know about our guy . . . like if he tends to forget Other People are in the room when he watches football, or hates to mow the lawn even if the grass is thigh high and has gone to seed, or if he sucks his teeth after eating ribs, of if he still lives at home in his mother’s basement and has no plans of ever moving out because ‘the price is right’ — we just don’t want to know.

What we DO want to know is, what’s it like to look across the table and see THAT smiling back at you.

And so ladies, I give you a real life FROS!!!

    Ok, who is this guy and who has him for a friend? I want a friend like that! He should have been on the abs page last week.

  2. Karen Hawkins on 23 Sep 2007 at 7:29 am #

    He is adorable, isn’t he? And yeah, his abs even beat out Matt Lauer’s.

  3. PJ on 23 Sep 2007 at 7:50 am #

    Oh. My. Gawd! You do realize I’m not going to get a single thing done today. I’m just going to sit here and appreciate. Sigh…

    Those are pretty spectacular abs but what I really like is his smile. Not that I’d throw away the rest of the package, mind you, but that smile would melt me every time.

    Cookiedough, please thank your friend for putting himself “out there” for our enjoyment. That took courage!

  4. Karen Hawkins on 23 Sep 2007 at 7:56 am #

    Cookiedough was a sweetie to ask her friend if we could admire him here. And he was very brave to allow us to do it!

    PJ, he has a KILLER smile, doesn’t he? YUMMMMMM!

  5. Cookiedough on 23 Sep 2007 at 8:06 am #

    I’ll let him know how happy he’s made some nice ladies
    giggle
    Shame he never gets to the gym huh?lol
    such a proud moment for me.. and I guess him too
    but I’m going to take the credit here.
    and thanks Karen!

    Cookiedough, a big THANKS for sharing your friend with us! That smile, those abs—one yummy package!

  7. Judy F on 23 Sep 2007 at 8:54 am #

    cookiedough you are my new bestest friend. Thanks for sharing your friend with us… Very very nice. Just what I needed to get going today..

  8. Karen Hawkins on 23 Sep 2007 at 9:02 am #

    Hey, maybe we should have a Goddess Party for ‘all goddesses AND THEIR FRIENDS?” I think Kansas City is close to the geographical center of the US, isn’t it?

  9. MizMacgyver on 23 Sep 2007 at 9:12 am #

    That is a killer smile and the rest of the package is great too……. :::sigh::: must go about business now but I will be smiling all day

  10. Chantal on 23 Sep 2007 at 9:16 am #

    Yummy! I could stare at him all day!

  11. Cookiedough on 23 Sep 2007 at 9:45 am #

    umm… I guess I should tell you his name..it’s Michael

  12. Claudia Dain on 23 Sep 2007 at 10:57 am #

    Oh, he’s adorable! What a grin! It was so sweet of him to share himself with us. What a nice guy, which is the hottest attribute of all.

  13. doglady on 23 Sep 2007 at 11:23 am #

    What a great sport!! Please tell Michael he made this romance-loving middle aged woman grin like a teenager. What a cutie! I have to agree with Claudia. A genuinely nice guy who is a good sport is EXTREMELY attractive. Lucky you, Cookie, and thank you for sharing! What a great smile! Yes, I looked at the smile. After the abs, but I DID look at his face!

  14. Karen Hawkins on 23 Sep 2007 at 11:38 am #

    Yup, he’s a sweetie! Cookiedough said he was a great friend of hers — and he has been very gracious in letting us post his pic.

    Michael, if you’re reading this — THANK YOU! And you made my day, too.

    Doesn’t he have the kind of grin that just makes you want to grin back? I love that!

  15. Kathy on 23 Sep 2007 at 11:59 am #

    Cookiedough, you are a genius. Michael you do radiate. I think Michael would make a great cover for a novel. Title: The Smiling Bandit. Do you have a better title? I hope….

  16. Kim on 23 Sep 2007 at 12:08 pm #

    Would Michael mind answering a few questions?

    1. Does he like pina coladas?

    2. Getting caught in the rain?

    3. Is he into health food?

    ;) Very yummy man and how sweet for sharing his pic with the Goddesses!

  17. Ann in IL on 23 Sep 2007 at 12:37 pm #

    Oh yeah……a Goddess Party in KC?????????
    Sign me up. I’ll be there.
    Karen, will you autograph books, too?

  18. Meg on 23 Sep 2007 at 12:54 pm #

    **sigh**WOW!! enough said. thanks. :-)

  19. Kelly Ann on 23 Sep 2007 at 12:59 pm #

    Heavens, I think he put all last weeks abs to shame. But that face and he even looks sweet and smart. Oh my word, how am I supposed to do laundry today? No, I’m just going to sit here.

    Ok, who is going to write the romance with Michael as the hero? I imagine we’ll have to have a contest to find out which of us will be the heroine! Since I’m sure there will be a lot of volunteers!

    Thanks Michael for making this an excellent FROS! And Cookiedough, very gracious of you to share - you are a true goddess of romance.

  20. Aemelia on 23 Sep 2007 at 1:02 pm #

    all I can say is “Yummmmm-MEEEEEEE”!

  21. doglady on 23 Sep 2007 at 1:42 pm #

    I’m sure Karen H. will volunteer to autograph Michael. Sigh, but then there would be a fight over who gets to take him home!

  22. darkshire007 on 23 Sep 2007 at 1:52 pm #

    The snow started flying today but the temperature in the house after viewing this FROS is about 200df! I’m truly speechless here! If Michael ever finds himself in Great Falls, MT let me know in advance. I’d probably crash my car trying to turn completely around to get a REALLY good look! LOL!!

  23. Cookiedough on 23 Sep 2007 at 1:54 pm #

    like me, he’s Canadian ladies, but don’t hold that against him..he know how to keep warm!

  24. KMB25 on 23 Sep 2007 at 2:00 pm #

    Oh that pic SOOOO made my day! I just got back home from a 4 hour drive and I have to drive another hour for an orchestra dress rehearsal tonight! Ughh….but I’ll definitely be smiling!! Those abs are yummy!!

    Thanks Cookiedough for getting us that lovely pic and Thanks to Michael for being a good sport!

  25. Ladytink_534 on 23 Sep 2007 at 2:31 pm #

    He’s very cute. Is it just me or does he look a bit like the Dog Whisperer? Anywho… thanks for sharing!

  26. Karen Hawkins on 23 Sep 2007 at 2:43 pm #

    Yes, I will autograph Michael in Kansas City! Anything for my goddess friends!

  27. Judy F on 23 Sep 2007 at 2:47 pm #

    I feel a road trip to Canada coming on….. LOL

  28. gannon on 23 Sep 2007 at 2:49 pm #

    Thanks, Michael for letting us look at you today! You’re a real sweetie!

  29. Chantal on 23 Sep 2007 at 3:24 pm #

    We grow them good here in Canada!
    lol

    I just drooled all over my keyboard!!!! Where in Canada????

    Ladydawgfan, who lives approximately 45 minutes south of the Canadian border and is willing to hightail it north . . .

  31. AnnaSwede on 23 Sep 2007 at 4:34 pm #

    I only want to know one thing… is he single? ;D

  32. dbrown3400 on 23 Sep 2007 at 5:20 pm #

    So sorry I waited until now for my FROS fix. So yummy and who cares if he forgets to mow the grass. But Canadian and football, not hockey too?

  33. Cookiedough on 23 Sep 2007 at 5:27 pm #

    He does like chocolate

  34. Cookiedough on 23 Sep 2007 at 6:02 pm #

    …and he’s originally from Nova Scotia, home of the hunks
    James Tupper is from here too- “mr mc treemy” from Men in Trees … a friend of a friend dated him in high school!
    yup, we grow them up nice here

  35. J Perry Stone on 23 Sep 2007 at 7:13 pm #

    What an adorable guy. And good idea, Karen, about no-Fros-spoilers.

    And I have to tell you, there’s something about a hottie with a little gray hair. That SO works for me, even when I was a teenager more than half my life ago.

    And he looks sweet too. Please tell us he’s nice, Cookiedough!

    J

  36. Cookiedough on 23 Sep 2007 at 7:47 pm #

    Of course, J! he is sweet guy!
    I’m waiting for him to make a comment though…oh Michael! where are you?

  37. Brandy on 23 Sep 2007 at 8:43 pm #

    He looks so nice and that smile is contagious!

  38. Sabrina Jeffries on 23 Sep 2007 at 9:28 pm #

    Thanks for being such a good sport, Michael!

  39. Nicole Jordan on 23 Sep 2007 at 10:44 pm #

    Wow, CookieD, you have your own romance hero model! Thanks for sharing. And yes, thank you, Michael for giving us avid romance fans inspiration.

  40. Karen Rose on 24 Sep 2007 at 1:07 am #

    Adding my thanks for being such a great sport, Michael! You do have a great smile! Thanks for guest starring on our blog today :-)

  41. SuzyQ on 24 Sep 2007 at 9:21 am #

    Wow! What a smile! Thanks Cookiedough for sharing. And thanks, Michael for being such a good sport.

  42. cail on 24 Sep 2007 at 1:00 pm #

    i think this should start a trend. i want more down to eart FROS in the future!

  43. Laura on 24 Sep 2007 at 5:59 pm #

    oh my… he has a great smile but that twinkle in his eye is so engaging! Thanks!!

  44. Santa on 24 Sep 2007 at 9:44 pm #

    Thank you FROS guy and cookiedough and Karen from the bottom of my ever lovin’ heart! I’m with J on this. Love the salt and pepper hair. It makes him even realer. Yes, I know it’s not a word but I’m just getting the blood back to my brain. Thanks for making my night. I can go to bed a happy woman. Wait a minute…I almost forgot my own FROS guy upstairs!

  45. Michael on 25 Sep 2007 at 2:57 am #

    Thanks so much Ladies for all your kind comments! I just got home from LA and got an email from “Cookiedough” to check out the responses on the site…I had a bit of an “everything went wrong” day, but I feel much better now! The pic was from my 41st birthday in July…getting ready for a dinner. Thanks again for the sweet comments! Michael xx

  46. pri.r. on 27 Sep 2007 at 7:31 am #

    gaaahhh michael should be our FROS man of the MONTH!
    at the moment i’m just drooling over the fact that his comment is above mine … :D

  47. Karen Hawkins on 27 Sep 2007 at 8:51 am #

    Welcome Michael! Thank you for letting us admire your picture! Sorry you had a Bad Day — traveling sort of opens that possibility. Hopefully your days will get better because, from a Karma standpoint, you deserve a bunch of Good Days for brightening all of ours!

  48. TinaLouiseF on 27 Sep 2007 at 2:11 pm #

    Thanks Michael, this blog brightened up my week after spending five days out of town at a conference.
