I remember reading about some women with anxiety in fiction novels. They would often be characterized as frail, weak and sensitive; all in all, pretty pathetic and a burden to people more than anything else. Admittedly, I would smirk as the authors would target these women using sarcastic humour: "Oh my poor nerves, I just … Continue reading “Oh my poor nerves, I just can’t bear it!”
In a pinch… Spaghetti wins every time!
I would love to say that "at least I'm making my own spaghetti sauce", but it's one of those days where I am just tired. Who am I kidding? I always use the canned stuff anyway. Am I really missing out? I've spent the last hour and a half raking leaves just in the front … Continue reading In a pinch… Spaghetti wins every time!
Making a trip to the past.
There is great joy in cracking open books from your childhood and re-reading them. I'm not a fan of e-books, I like the smell of a good book and flipping the pages as I move my bookmark along. It gives me wonderful satisfaction! It didn't take me long to choose my box set of the … Continue reading Making a trip to the past.
Time for a trip to the Library! My Library.
Over the last few weeks I have been reading Leviticus from the NIV Bible and maybe I'm crazy but it wasn't nearly as bad as other people had said it would be. Repetitive, yes... but I found all the rituals and specific details rather fascinating. Everything must be exact. Precise. From sacrifices to festivals for … Continue reading Time for a trip to the Library! My Library.
Feelin’ Hot Hot Hot!!
In case I tricked you into thinking this was a post about my hair, sorry to disappoint! My post is actually all about the meal I made for tonight's dinner and it was SPI-CY! My one-pot wonder pasta and chicken dish was found on a video circulating through Facebook with about 30 other ones to … Continue reading Feelin’ Hot Hot Hot!!
End Result for Egg Yolk, Oil and Honey Mix
So, after treating my hair with the mixture and sleeping on my special "silk pillowcase", this is my final result (below). It is not how I was hoping it would turn out compared to the last time I used an egg mixture. Last time my hair was a lot smaller for a few days, this … Continue reading End Result for Egg Yolk, Oil and Honey Mix
Egg Yolks, Extra Virgin Olive Oil & Honey Mix
Tonight I spent about an hour looking at different combos of the egg and oil mixtures and there are A LOT of them out there! I finally decided to try the 3 eggs yolks, extra virgin olive oil and honey mixture put on for 20 minutes then shampooed and conditioned under cool water. After this, … Continue reading Egg Yolks, Extra Virgin Olive Oil & Honey Mix
Silk Pillowcase Results!
I straightened my hair 3 days ago and was so excited to try out the silk pillowcase idea. Only problem? We didn't make it out to Walmart this past weekend. So I got creative! I pulled out an old pair of silk pajamas that I never wear (because the seam was faulty on the shoulders) … Continue reading Silk Pillowcase Results!
“This Is Us” might have just saved my hair crisis!
Since I was a little girl, we never knew what to do with my hair. No one seemed to have any advice, so we would brush it out. Now anyone with curly hair knows this is a big no-no, unless of course you are blow-drying it and straightening it after. However I did not know … Continue reading “This Is Us” might have just saved my hair crisis!
You made it! (And so did I!)
I will be the first to admit, I am not tech savvy. A writer, yes. A blogger... Possibly...? This is, by far, taking me out of my comfort zone, but isn't that always the start of a great adventure? Let's cut to the chase. You have either stumbled across my page because (a) you love … Continue reading You made it! (And so did I!)
