Hey my peoples! Welp, after all the back and forth about what I was gonna do with this hair of mine, I finally settled on doing Marley Twists and I am SO excited to start styling these babies! I have a how-to video on the way but I know some of you may have some questions about the process so I’ve put this together for ya… How long did it take you? Well, I had a whole lot goin’ on so it wound up taking parts of two days. Hair used: Afro Marley Braid by Janet Collection Number of packs: Hard to say. I bought three fresh packs of hair but also washed & reused some leftover hair that I’ve had for a while which I’ve used for updos as well as my last set of twists. The old hair would probably make up about four packs so I’d say…

Happy Sunday y’all! This post is an unlikely one {for my blog at least} but as I say in my bio, I just wanna share what I love. And, well… I love Lemon-Herb Tilapia! ^_^ For those of you wondering what to cook today, this one’s for you. I had never heard of tilapia before 2006. One of my coworkers used to order tilapia with penne a la vodka from this Italian restaurant all the time and I’m like, “what’s TILAPIA?!” O_o After I got married in ’07, I was always on the hunt for new and exciting dishes since my husband came from a home where he had many “menu” options thanks to an Italian step-dad who loved to cook. I remembered the tilapia! Both my husband and I love seafood (okay, lemme qualify that statement- I don’t do mussels, clams, oysters or squid!!! O_O) A few clicks of…
Ok, ok, ok… Sorry for the lack of a Fashion Friday post but nothing all that exciting happened for me in that area this week. It was just a lot of errand running and such so, yeah. I didn’t even have time to at least create a couple of inspirational outfit sets for you. 🙁 Next week, I’ll be back on it for realz! Right now, we gotta talk about Mrs. Carter.

I’m sure by now you’ve seen all kinds of memes on IG or Facebook comparing Bey to an emoji, a certain character from…
