Every time I hear this song, although my childhood was nothing like Tupac’s, I can’t help but feel such appreciation for my Mother. I am the only child and thanks to my Father, I am not completely spoiled rotten. My Mom does all that she can for me and she has certainly gone above and beyond […] Read more…

Michael Jordan Wear for Women
Hey Hey! I just had to share a great find. With Mother’s Day coming, I wanted to get my Mom some really cool gym shoes. She asked for a blood pressure monitor (BORING!) and I purchased that the other day, but I wanted to get her something that was fun. My Mom is an avid […] Read more…
Lifting Our Spirits
From the Book Walk Tall – Affirmations for People of Color by Carleen Brice No matter how bad things got, our ancestors found something to laugh at. Humor was one of their positive coping skills. A sense of humor can get us through some pretty tough spots, but sometimes it’s hard to find things to […] Read more…

I do not carry a load of guilt or shame around (think about Erykah Badu’s “Bag Lady”) and I regret […] Read more…
Blouse And Skirt

As a youngster, I watched PBS and, sometimes, Canadian television to get my British telly fix. Now, I rely on BBC America. My favorites are Chef!, Coupling, The Vicar of Dibley, […] Read more…

Having multiple sex partners does not necessarily make anyone better at sex. Some feel it does not make you skilled at pleasing your […] Read more…
Deconstruction
I was reading the latest copy of Marie Claire with Salma Hayek on the cover. (Sidebar: I hate the way the commentators on the post-awards shows, which I love to watch, describe her as being fat or euphemistically as curvy. Makes me sad because it is not cool to be gaunt and sickly. (See Kate […] Read more…
When Heart and Mind Do Not Match
Hey P&G readers, I could have titled this post, “WTF!!!”, but that would be inappropriate. Recently, my husband and I visited a church in Florida. We received a mild recommendation about this church, and I broke my cardinal rule, which is “Do not attend a church that does not have a website!” Oh, how I […] Read more…
