My way. My say. My love. My vision. My journey. My faith. My life.
Another beautiful journey in the books... May 2018 I traveled with my sister and a group of successful black women to Cabo for my colleague, Shamekia's bachelorette. I've always heard great things about Cabo, but let me be the first to say that everything from the resort on forward was breathtaking. So much til even... Continue Reading →
Tonight I got to experience a new restaurant called Morrow's on St Claude that's been getting some buzz on social media. The restaurant is the creation of the mother of author and seemingly overnight sensation of the city, Larry Morrow. The menu has a broad selection of items including some of an Asian fusion variety.... Continue Reading →
I had to break this post up into two because it's just too many pictures. Also bear in mind that I still have yet to get the pictures off of my Nikon. Lol.Day 6: This was likely our most anticipated excursion. It's an all day long journey called Road to Hana. Basically a tour bus... Continue Reading →

In early October, I decided to make my return to Chicago. I hadn't been to Chicago in 2 years. What brought me back this time was my old roommate and friend Emily whose baby girl is 10 months old and I had yet to meet her. Amongst this visit with friends, I need not tell... Continue Reading →
For months or even years now, I had been wanting to visit D.C. Now of course like most of my fellow black friends, I wanted to go when President Obama was in office. What held me from going then was my desire to visit the National Museum of African American History and Culture and it... Continue Reading →
I'm no foreigner when it comes to exotic cuisine. I've tried Indian food before, but last weekend for a friend's birthday, we went to Saffron NOLA on Magazine Street. Little did I know, the restaurant is only open until 3 pm and only serves brunch on Sundays. This turned out to work out just fine... Continue Reading →
Someone asked me when is the best time to visit New Orleans when it's not a holiday. My opinion is August since it's restaurant month. It's called Coolinary. The first week of September is restaurant week and an extension of Coolinary. What's so great about this month is that some of the finest dining in... Continue Reading →
