“Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; Truth isn’t.” (Mark Twain) I thought Phaedra Parks from the Real Housewives of Atlanta was savage, but the dynamics within the Trump White House, as narrated by Michael Wolff in his book Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White […]
I just saw Crazy Rich Asians with my coworkers this Sunday!! The beginning was pretty consistent with the book, but as the film continued I noticed the film writers deviated at times to accelerate and simplify the plot–the overall effect of some of the deviations made the film come off at times as a bit choppy. […]
I love high quality products/experiences that fall under a Walmart price range. Unfortunately, the rest of the word is still convinced that one should pay top dollar for quality products. So, from where do I get my inspiration to live lavishly but within my budget? Through my guilty pleasure of watching reality tv of course! […]
To all the the people who read this blog, and also happen to read international best sellers–yes, I am fully aware that I missed the boat when it sailed in 2013. Even though it’s been five years after the novel was released, I have officially finished reading Kevin Kwan’s Crazy Rich Asians. Let me tell you, […]
So…is it just me or are CNN conversations reminiscent of Bravo reality show reunions? I just watched Paris Dennard throw HEAVY shade at Joan Walsh on Erin Burnett’s OutFront on CNN.

I’m super excited that the book I had on hold finally got released to me on the OverDrive app. I will be ready Crazy Rich Asians by Kevin Kwan. It’s twenty chapters long, and 503 pages. I also only have two weeks to read it; so… I know what I’ll be binge reading this weekend! […]
Today is a special day because I’m posting not once, but twice! I just wanted to share that my guilty pleasure is watching reality t.v. Why? Well, I like to live a drama free life. But, watching other people work through their drama I find entertaining. Here’s the full list of reality shows I watch, […]
I’ve had a love/hate relationship with my physical health for YEARS now, 16 years to be exact. I’ve done Tae Bo, jogging, yoga on Youtube, and even signed up for a kickboxing membership. My issue with working out primarily stems from the fact that I don’t like the process of getting ready to work out, […]
Good afternoon friends! I’m reading Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi, and I must say it is AMAZING! I love the descriptions of the characters, the story line, and appreciate the cultural aspects of Nigeria that are woven into the very fabric of the tale (the author is Nigerian American). I started reading […]
Good afternoon friends! I’m excited to start blogging, and I have to admit I’ve never done this before. I mean I’m the kind of person who only has a Pinterest and LinkedIn page. Of course, you won’t find me on either medium with my current username. I also got rid of my Facebook account years […]
