The Great Taste Tour - Atlanta
When one of my favorite sistahfriends invited me to join her birthday celebration, she said, “Hey, I wanna do something different this year. Instead of meeting for dinner and drinks at a restaurant, let’s check out The Great Taste Tour.” What is The Great Taste Tour? It is a fantastic tasting event that travels from state to state gathering together local chefs, artist, wineries and gardeners to provide a sumptuous tasting event. Filled with entertainment, art and celebrity guests this combination equaled one hell of … Continue reading

Dark Girls Documentary on OWN
Dark Girls is a poignant documentary that investigates what it means to not only be Black in America, but what it means to be a Black person with dark skin. It was aired on OWN this week. It was a 2 hour documentary and i thought that it was not only well done but that it has also been crucial to get a dialogue reopened about colorism not just in America but abroad as well. I spoke about this very subject in my post Beautiful … Continue reading

Atlanta Jazz Festival 2013
You never have to spend a lot of money in Atlanta to have fun. The Atlanta Jazz Festival is just another one of those fantastic events that caters to families. Free of charge and on the MARTA line, packing up our blanket and heading to Piedmont on a gorgeous Sunday afternoon was a no brainer. There were crowds of people walking from the MARTA station to the park and I had a good time chatting as we trekked our way to the venue. We saw … Continue reading

Beautiful and Dark
Are you color struck? Do you find yourself saying things like, “She is so pretty to be so dark!?” or telling someone, “You better keep her out of the sun, you don’t want her to get to dark.” or my favorite when looking at someone’s newborn child you say, “Oh don’t worry she wont get too much darker.” To be “color struck” as defined by UrbanDictionary.com is: To have an aversion to someone’s skin color, usually used in the African-American community. I’d say that was … Continue reading

Happy Mother’s Day! Heart of Haiti
Mother’s Day Weekend is here once again and we all know what that means. It’s time to pamper mom! I found my self pulling double duty today to make sure that every household task is complete before the “surprises” begin! I feel like Mother’s Day came early this year because of a gift that I received already. It’s an awesome picture frame. It has a very island feel to it and its made out of metal. If you look closely the metal appears to … Continue reading

Even though we have a YouTube channel with videos on my daughter’s (LittleChick) natural hair regimen. People ask me all the time what I do for her hair to maintain it. They want to know what products I use, what I do to make it shiny and specifically how I got it to grow so long, etc. We get these questions all the time and many more and we don’t mind it one bit! In order to answer some of those questions in a format … Continue reading
