To know me is to know that I love wine! I'm no expert, but I at least know what tastes good. I typically go for sweet and bubbly. A new vineyard opened in 2019 and I have been wanting to go check it out. Hubby and I finally got to go on Saturday. Veronét Vineyards... Continue Reading →
Black women, natural hair, and job interviews
Whoa, I just realized that I haven't posted anything new since December. Clue #1 that things have been a little busy in my world.

Steam your way to great skin
All I know is, after being stuck in the house for nearly two years has done something to my skin. In all of my adult life, I've never had so many breakouts, rashes, dry skin...you name it!

Ground chicken chili recipe
It's been delayed, but looks like fall has finally arrived in Charlotte! Which means, it's soup season. I guess chili isn't technically soup, but it's soup-like, so it fits the bill.

Vintage Louis from J’Adore Wakefield
I'm not a purse snob. I'll buy any brand if I like it and it doesn't have to be designer. But when I do shop for designer bags, Lous Vuitton is my fave. I'm by no means wealthy, so for me to even purchase one, I have to save my coins. Pre-Covid, my goal was... Continue Reading →

How to make lemon pound cake muffins
To know me is to know that I LOVE lemon flavored anything desserts. Social media algorithms have also figured this out and lemon desserts are always popping up in my feeds. I save them, and make maybe 10% of them. I saved this recipe many months ago, but I decided to make them last weekend.... Continue Reading →
