I’m really trying to fight back tears.......
In the summer of 2019 I decided to start my fertility journey.A 40 year old ( Still a virgin)chef with no potential husband insight. Then the pandemic hit and I had a failed IUI in the summer of 2020 and decided to put dreams of being solo mom by choice on hold and relocate back to New York with their were more private chef opportunities. As a Su***de survivor I started feeling depressed when I would look at my chef jackets,asking myself if I would ever cook again and then I had a interview with about possible private chef work back in New York and she shared some jewels about having a personal life and her how important that was for her .I realize that this was the perfect time to create the best of a lifetime .......thank you Danielle.
So after our conversation I made a appointment to have a IUI done with a midwife and with Accupuncture I became pregnant! I prayed and the Lord our God to send me a great man ......he sent me son!
To God be the glory ....Amen.
He’s due end of June!

My Cheese and Iberico Ham plate.
Harbison ,Reypenaer one year from Holland ,Fourme D’ Ambert from France while watching share her journey to starting her hair care line.

My Saturday brunch plate while watching .Soft Scramble with Hog Jowl,Collards ,Peach and Pineapple.
Really enjoying the panelist so far .
I loved hearing women sharing their ups and downs and their continued faith in God helped them through the hard times of starting their business.Also I liked the dialogue about hair discrimination that I have been a victim of like so many black women and so happy California was the first state to make it a law,thank you to for signing the bill.
It’s a great day to watch black women share their stories and it’s a blessing to be apart of.

It’s hot outside had to treat myself to a Beef 🥩 tartare ! Filet Baby!

Balance!

I had a very wonderful time this past weekend,it was a awesome to take a break from the norm and enjoy a celebration of our beauty and to fellowship with friends

It was disheartening to hear on the shuttle bus from a girl chanting “ Did you get free stuff from Curlfest make some noise! I don’t believe that is the purpose of the gathering ....this is my second year attending and just like last year I enjoyed my shopping! This year I discovered new brands and look forward to using them all.
Supporting a black business is not asking for a discount! Ladies thank you!

My pass holiday wasn’t just to relax ,but someone back home requested a sea shell ,so after enjoying my conch salad I asked for it . The recipient was very happy when I arrived in Oakland with the gift. The process of that delivery was overwhelming and emotional and I had to refocus to help celebrate the life of my aunt.Whats incredible about her I didn’t hath to walk on egg shells to talk about the racial injustice in the hospitality industry in Oakland,Ca and surrounding cities as a young black woman being that she was a beautiful Mexican woman that my uncle loved......but more importantly she loved me to death!She was one of my biggest supporter in seeing Skillet Rose open. So upon returning home and working I channeled her love to deal with the the bigots around me at some of the places I worked.
While home the landscape of the culture is very dark....but for some ,not a lot or few,the only colors that matter are blue and gold.
It’s a blessing to enter to cheer and scream and not care. I got to sit next to the 1975 Champs, a former Warrior Girl from Japan 🇯🇵 and watch do God’s work on the court! When I got to NYC I met a wonderful family headed to the game from Oakland on the subway train and again those colors in my heart symbolizing unity.I was a good girl went to church 😂They were just happy to represent their home city in Brooklyn at the Nets game. shared God’s scripture “We haven’t seen,heard,or imagined the amazing things God has for those that loves him” When you feel like giving up and life is to hard and you want to exit this life.....just wait on the Lord ! Oh if isn’t a living testimony to beat a “ slump” than I don’t know what is! That’s not a headband....it’s a crown !
