Many of you may know that I have affinity for coconut water. I’m a little picky on the brands I drink but recently decided to go out on a limb and try a new one. Coconut water has a wealth of health benefits including an excellent source of hydration, immune support, aid in lowering blood […]
I recently had a chance to visit Vegan Food House in Dallas, TX, with one of my best friends. I was excited to try their food, especially since I eat less meat these days. In case you didn’t know, I have gout (which is exasperated by meat and certain types of alcohol). Thank goodness there […]
It’s been a while since I’ve shared a new Thirsty Thursday drink with you all. Honestly, I haven’t deviated much from my usual as of late (mostly water, occasional lemonades, mojitos, Moscow mules, etc.). However, I recently stopped by one of my favorite local record shops in Dallas (The Spin Coffee and Vinyl) after an […]
I’ve been hearing about sea moss for a few years. My first time hearing about it was through Dr. Sebi, the now deceased holistic herbalist/doctor that the late Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes praised.

I’ve always been drawn to certain flavor combinations. Salty and sweet. Sweet and spicy. Even a combination of salty, sweet and spicy works for me.

It’s easy to get caught up in the enticing wheel of social media. People posting accomplishments, new houses, new cars, new boos is the norm, right? Isn’t that what we’re all here for on the various platforms? True, but what about those valley moments no one sees? There is much more than meets the eye […]
You know the drill. During this time of the year, everyone is on a new year’s resolution health kick. Although I am currently fasting from certain foods right now, it has nothing to do with a new year’s resolution. I don’t believe in those. Instead, I prefer to live in the moment and strive to […]
As we enter 2021, I think we can all say that COVID-19 has lasted a bit longer than expected. With this in mind, I decided to host a virtual celebration for the launch of my two new books (A Swipe in the Wrong Direction and Cataracts) instead of an in-person event. Thanks to Dallas On […]
It’s been a long time. I shouldn’t have left you….without a dope drink to sip to. Sip to. Sip to. Sip to. If you know, you know lol. Alright, well it has been a while since I’ve done a Thirsty Thursday drink review. Today’s feature is a worthy cocktail from a few weeks ago while […]
