New Natural Hair Challenge 2022!

Okay, I recognize it's almost May and it's probably a wee bit late to start a hair challenge this late in the game. However, since I successfully completed my last hair challenge, I needed something new to do. Now, I have to be honest with my goals here - I'm not going for a certain length, though I did previously say I wanted bra-strap length. I am going for

I Am That L.A. Mom. But am I really?

I’ve lived in L.A. for many years. I moved here back in late 2009. I moved to Pasadena around 2018. I’m not an L.A. expert by any means. I just recently found out–by accident–I can take the backroads in Pasadena to go to Glendale and skip pretty much all the freeway traffic.  I really don’t like to venture to the westside (Santa Monica, Century City, Inglewood, et al.) unless I

I tried sweetgreen the other day. And chile…

So, I used to do food delivery to make extra money and I would often get delivery orders from sweetgreen. I have no idea about the restaurant other than everything seemingly came in a bowl. The tips were always great from this place and I have to think it had something to do with how expensive it was. It is, let me correct. Recently, I decided to finally see

Should You Buy DiGiorno Crispy Pan?

So, I started buying a lot of frozen pizza lately. No reason other than I work at home a lot more now and sometimes I don't have the want to go out and get something to eat. I'm also being rather money-conscious of how much I do spend on eating out so I want to be careful about that. I've been getting more into frozen pizzas. For the record,

12 Years a Wife?

I've seen that hashtag for a while. Now, to clarify, it's a play on 12 Years a Slave, and if you've seen the movie, you wouldn't dare to use that as a hashtag to celebrate your wifedom/anniversary. So, why am I saying this? Because today is our 12-year wedding anniversary. It's been an interesting past two years. We had to deal with Covid for the big 10-year anniversary, and

My Experience Going to an Ukrainian Rally

Not gonna lie; it was a little weird. I'm not a professional protester, if you will. I like to protest more with my money than anything. I'll either personally boycott a business or support a business. I don't follow trends on what to boycott and I'll just do it with my own critical thinking. I'm not trying to get arrested by the cops, but I'm not afraid of jail

Stop Asking Me about the Russian-Ukrainian Conflict.

Seriously. Just stop. People aren't coming from a genuine place when they ask and it's been rather telling how people truly feel. My thoughts in a newly-released YouTube video: https://youtu.be/-CbIjxmfHbY To help: Black Women for Black Lives Urgent Action Fund Fight For Right

Dear In-Laws: Stop With the Gotdamn Gender Roles

So, once again, I hosted my in-laws. Yes, those in-laws. The racist-ass ones. The ones that can't absolutely shut the fuck up if they were offered wealth beyond their dreams. I put on my 'I'm going to pretend I like you for a few hours' face and hosted them as we had a family gathering. With the usual this is what you should be doing with your life and

Celebrating the Rams Super Bowl Win!

I'll be the first to admit: I'm not a huge football fan. It's funny to say that because I am a huge sports fan. I just love sports. I was an athlete in high school and college and I enjoy sports to this day. While I'm hesitant to watch golf (I mean, the shit looks boring!), I understand it. I'm also the lone member in my family who can't
