So, I'm starting another element in this blog by reviewing books. I'm an avid reader and I don't typically read romance books (though, that's what I write). Here, I'll share my reviews of the books via video. I'm currently attempting to read Going Postal by Terry Pratchett (I say attempting because I've been reading this book on and off for the past several years and can just never quite

For this week's biracial/mixed hair care review, we're checking out Dream Kids' Olive Miracle Instant Moisturizing Detangler (whew, that's a mouthful!).
Dream Kids is made by African Pride, a brand I'm very familiar with. This detangler contains water as the main ingredient, shea butter, Vitamin E, and aloe vera. The following oils are included: olive, coconut, grapeseed, jojoba, avocado, wheatgerm, and
I'd never done a post on my wash n' go routine because I'm still perfecting it. Also, I like to try different products, be it something I actually purchased or a sample to use in my routine.
So, this is my first-ever (eek!) post on my wash 'n go routine. Once I figure out how to mount a camera in my bathroom, I'll do a video post of this.
Now we
Over the weekend, we went to Fire Service Day at the Beverly Hills Fire Department. It was a lot of fun! We got to ride in a fire truck (which is a lot bigger and a bit more difficult to get in than I imagined). We met some super cool firefighters, and got to know our (semi) local Fire Department! We missed the demonstrations they did but it was
Trying to incorporate Russian while I'm learning it myself is quite the task.
I'm a native English speaker. I know a little Spanish, but wouldn't consider myself fluent. I can carry a light conversation without the use of Google translate (too much).
So, learning Russian is a task. It's a fun one, albeit challenging at times. I try to have one solid hour each day of teaching Bear Russian since all he
I'm on a mission to try as many conditioning washes (otherwise known as cowash) as possible. Even ones I'm not sure about. Even ones I never heard about. Even ones I love so I can just spread the word.
Yeah, I get like that when I see a new product I want to try.
I recently tried Creme of Nature's Pure-Licious Co-Wash. I'm familiar with the Creme of Nature brand as I've
My Mother's Day weekend 2016 is something I won't forget anytime soon. We went to the #LALovesPrince concert on Friday and it was super fun! (To see our adventures, click here.)
And then Saturday happened.
Bear had a slight limp on the night of the concert and I didn't really think anything of it because he did walk around a lot. Saturday morning, however, his limp grew more pronounced and it

Over the last two weeks, I've been bombarded with Mother's Day as I'm sure the rest of the country, if not world. Mother's Day sale here. Mother's Day deals there. Mother's Day in my inbox. Mother's Day when I turn on the TV.
Mother's Day. Mother's Day. Mother's Day. (For a surprising history of lesson of how it got started, click here.)

So, I've been frequenting Etsy a lot lately. To be honest, I haven't really been on the site since I was planning for my wedding several years ago but recently, it's been calling me.
I like to get the quirky and cute to decorate my home. Or should be honest and say decorate as much as I can. It's hard to do a lot of decoration with an active toddler.
