Interracial Dating, What Gives
I really have concerns or questions with interracial dating. As we grow older we try and settle down and find that one person to love us unconditionally.

Help! Stress is Keeping Me Fat!
The last few weeks have been very stressful for me at work. It seems like there aren’t enough hours in the day to finish my tasks. Deadlines loom and my personal issues need to be organized. I knew being an attorney meant long hours, buuut I am stressed out!!! I notice when I am stressed I eat more, [...]
Vibe Covers: Ciara v. Toni Braxton
Here is my random Saturday thought. For all you youngin’s Ciara was NOT the first woman to pose nude on the cover of Vibe. Flashback to 1997 and you have Toni Braxton appearing nude on the cover of Vibe Magazine. That issue raised a HUGE controversy back then and the same thing is going on now [...]
Spice Up Your Sex Life
Sooo……its getting a little boring in the bedroom. You are not a Chinese pretzel and you breezed through the Karma Sutra at the bookstore and you put it back. (They must have been super flexible back when that book was written, who can do all that stuff?) What can you do to spice up the scene [...]
I’m scared for Black women….
I was walking around downtown this past weekend and a few things caught my eye. Specifically, I saw a number of Black women with hair problems that seemed to stem from just a lack of knowledge of how to take care of their hair properly. I saw women with thinning hair, bad weaves, braids that were [...]
Pick Up the Phone! Don’t Text Date!
The invention of the text message was a Godsend for quick and easy communication. You can find the whereabouts of anyone in seconds, say wassup, and set up an event in seconds.

Stay wise about weight as you age

Product Review: Kinky Curly
As you all know, I have been growing out my relaxer. My method to grow out my hair was to wear a weave. When I took out the weave, voila, I was instantly natural and had no clue about caring for my hair.
I admit to being a product junkie. If someone raves about something, I [...]
Get Off Your Lazy Ass!
I wrote this post for everyone, including myself. I admit I have been a slacker the last few weeks. I was not hitting the gym like I should be to lose my last 20 pounds. I noticed I follow a pattern. Once I stop exercising my inner fat girl starts screaming and stomping her feet [...]
