My Grandmother’s Recipes are Enough.
https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxVvO0TFK9zZAtD_nz6AFoWPGwkk4APdJe?si=mBDe4lzp3oSLtg_R So in the wake of having someone from Delaware do their best to steal from me and the ripples of having much more time for personal pursuits because Corporate comes with ups and downs, I’m in a contemplative mood.

Ooh My Holiday Protective Hairdos

Life on the other side of my loc attempt
I have been having the time of my life since I took my locs down. There are days that I miss being able to just wake up and go, but not many. Locs are beautiful, on everybody else but me. 🙂 I’m posting some pictures of the fun I’ve been having since taking my…
