Spring 2018 is Cancelled
Unfortunately, I must be the first to say this, “Spring 2018 is officially cancelled.” As we come to the end of an eight month winter, I am bypassing Spring and going straight to Summer. I have packed all of my Winter clothes away and fully embraced my early Summer. I have accepted that I may deal with some cold nights and potentially catch a cold, but, you know, you only live once. As my intake of cocktails and Drake (by the way, Nice for What is my Summer jam) start to increase, so does the pressures of showcasing the perfect beach bawdy. I know they say Summer bodies…

Is it too Early for a Cocktail?
Over the past weekend, I discovered a new level of whispering. I have never spoken so softly than when asking if “a little before 8 A.M.” was too early for a cocktail. I was asking this question at a random airport bar as I awaited my flight to my Alma Mater. I was headed to the university to speak on a panel for accepted students who identified as African American. I was truly honored that I made so much of an impact at my Alma Mater that they saw fit to fly me back to campus and speak on a panel for an event where even our University president…

Coping with a Loss
Over the last two weeks, I’ve been grieving and trying to figure out how I’m going to move forward after experiencing a sudden loss. I feel like just last month I was laughing with this person and making plans to see them again. I didn’t realize that I would never see this person again. It’s been two weeks since I found out that my eye brow threading place closed down. I wasn’t prepared for this sudden loss. I was just making plans to have my esthetician do my eyebrows for a upcoming trip. I was even going to have her do my eyebrows for my wedding. It’s so true that…

Living a Puppy-less Life
I can’t believe I’m two years away from my 30’s and I’m still living a puppy-less life. I thought at this stage in my life I’d have at least a roommate that had a dog or a partner that I could trust to take care of each and every dog responsibility without my help. At this point I can imagine my fiancé yelling from the other room about the American Bulldog that he wants (me to take care of). I now find myself being the person that stands at the dog park fence with a joker-like smile on my face watching the dogs. I’ve even begged friends to let me…

Hello World!
As the sun starts to set around me and the city lights start to brighten, I am inspired to finally start my blog! Over the last twelve months I have wanted to start a blog but I never found the courage to pull out my notepad and scribble down my inner most thoughts. I finally hit my Aha moment! I asked myself a serious question: “What’s stopping you?” My answer was FEAR. This fear was fueled by the thoughts that no one would want to read my posts, see my pictures, or heed my advice. I am just a city gal who loves food and is recently engaged, i.e. I…
