My has time flown. When I started TCC in October, I had no idea that it would grow as it has. I am still not anywhere close to where I want to be in terms of my blog, but I have made rampant strides from where I started. The growth ...

I remember like it was yesterday. When the original We Are the World was released via USA for Africa. That was back in 1985 of course when Michael Jackson was in his prime. Everyone who was anyone in music crammed into a studio session after the American Music Awards that ...

Yes, this weekend was indeed one for the record books! Dallas will never be the same after it hosted the 2010 NBA All Star Game in their newly built Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas. My good friend Tanijoy (@Tanijoy on Twitter) picked me up from the airport Saturday afternoon and we ...

A few weeks ago, my friends over at Shuttle Lotion sent me several bottles of their Grenald's Shuttle Lotion for the Skin for my swag bags at my TCC Luncheon. I also advised that I would review the product for the blog as well as get reviews from my guests ...

It is not very often that I am able to meet two such grounded and driven people, but I have been blessed to have that opportunity. I was befriended by sisters Shima and Tsahai, makers of natural luxury products for your body and your home, under the umbrella of their ...

My mother always used to day: "Aint nothing going on but the rent...." I've been taught to be about my money. Not from a financial standpoint because I still have problems with my spending and saving. But moreso about making it and being smart with what I spend money on. I ...

Of course this is not a gossip blog but when there is an entertainment news story that hits home, I cannot and will not ignore it. The Twitternets were abuzz with the John Mayer fiasco yesterday. I really didn't pay it any attention until I saw that it hit the ...

I am such an 80's girl it's pathetic. I turned five years old in 1980 and that decade signified so much for me. When it was over, I was 14 years old, but I had experienced so much in terms of movies and music that it stands as being my ...
