A Night with SZA – CTRL Tour Atlanta
I will never forget seeing this beautiful, freckled-face, magical black girl with BIG hair (and y’all already know how I feel about big hair). I had to find out who she was. Her name was, well…is SZA! I saw her performing…
A Babalu Celebration

Speak Easy and Relax With Your Tribe
Sometimes you just need to hang out on a school night with your tribe. Last night I attended a Birmingham blogger meet-up at one of the coolest spots in Avondale. I’m somewhat familiar with the area, but there have been…
I’m A Marathoner Starting From The Couch
This past July, I really wanted to run the Peachtree Road Race, but I was NOT ready. Not to mention, I had so much going on that I forgot to enter the lottery. That’s why I can’t believe I’m this…
Things I Miss (Fitness Edition)
