It's crazy to think four years ago, I gave birth to one of the most amazing persons ever. Like ever.
Motherhood has been a challenge, no doubt. A lot of ups and quite a few downs. But I can't imagine my life without him.
He brings a smile to my face when I'm down. He makes me see the bright side of things. He's my inspiration when I don't have any.
All right, cue cheesy music and corny 90's jokes.
I actually have several playlists, however, I tend to create them whenever I work on a story (I'm a full-time self-published novelist for those inquiring). So, my playlist tends to vary from story to story. Some of it can be a bit moody, while others are light-hearted and fun.
But this isn't about any fiction. This is the playlist I create when
I have big lips. If you followed this blog for a while, you know this. I can't hide them nor would I want to. Women pay for a pout like mine.

So, when it comes to moisturizing them, I wouldn't say I spend a lot of money (really, I don't), but I'm very picky about what I put on them.
No, not the fictional character, the food.
I was recently introduced to buckwheat by the hubs. I honestly didn't know it existed but once I tried it, I found that I liked it. I also found it has numerous health benefits I think you might like.
I would love to say it's a hidden gem within the clean living/vegan/vegetarian community but chances are, some of you may have known about it
Okay, so I've made portobello mushroom tacos before but they were pretty plain - just the tortilla, maybe some sauce, and the mushrooms. Like I've said - Plain Jane.
You can always take a favorite and make it better...or better yet, go to someone else's blog and use what they did!
I did modify the recipe just a little. I didn't get a chance to use the roasted bell pepper sauce
So a while back...a long while back (and I so apologize for the delay, Minamul!), the good people over at Minamul sent me dry brushes to do a review.
Yes, dry brushing. Honestly, I didn't know that was a thing. But it's a thing you might want to try.
Dry brushing helps slough away dead skin and revitalize your body. If you've been to a spa, you might have seen it
Lord, that is a long name just to describe a makeup sponge.
Anyhoo...
As I'm anxiously awaiting to get my Fenty Beauty in my shade (440, to be exact), I decided to try another Fenty product - the makeup sponge.
Now, all makeup sponges aren't created equal as I found out. There's a reason why one makeup sponge will cost $5, another will cost $12, and the granddaddy of them all will
For those keeping track at home, I'm still very much committed to my new healthier lifestyle. I had the option of getting a cheeseburger but I chose to have a grilled turkey sandwich (from Starbucks, no less) instead. Go me!
And speaking of healthier lifestyles, I recently discovered this recipe. Now, I made it with chicken, however, I feel if you substitute the chicken with tofu, it'll be a great
I took these pictures of Bae and Baby Bae over a week ago. I'm not a professional photographer by any means, but hey, I'm rather impressed by how they turned out!

I really love
I'm rather new to the world of face primers. I didn't know there was a science on prepping your face even more before the first touch of foundation hits it. I'm used to scrubbing, toning, moisturizing, and then the foundation.
Now I need to prime my face?
It sounds weird but it's a dope concept. Primer smoothes out your pores, minimizing them and make your face overall smoother before you put on your
