FRIEND OR FOE?
Once upon a time there was someone that I called my ‘best friend’, but I do not know if the feeling was mutual. Maybe in word, but judging from my experience, not heart. My wakeup call came when I found out from someone else, what was her alleged life situation at the time. It was something big. Something life-changing…

SUE’S SWEET CRAVE
Try something new – Try something different After the birth of my son I struggled with chronic constipation. I’m not afraid to say it because this may help someone. Something went out of whack because that wasn’t the case pre-pregnancy or even when I was younger. So, I did my research and realised that in…

EVERYTHING IN MODERATION
Mastering moderation means being able to eat, drink and exercise without taking an all or nothing approach –Simone Samuels Wellness That saying also applies to the application of makeup as well.

SEASONS

I’M NOT GIVING UP!
“It’s not over ’til the fat lady sings” My version of that saying is that ‘it’s not over until God says it’s over’. To be honest, holding on to anything (a marriage, family, friendships, dreams and expectations) can be excruciating especially when everything that you see (sense) signals that it’s not worth it. IT being…

LOVE? I’LL TRY
Welcome! This tour will take some sharp twists and turns, but I urge you to sit back and pay keen attention. There may be something that you can relate to or learn as you traverse through the musings of my mind on the subject of Love. Loving you is not easy because it goes against my natural…

YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT
Awhile back I found out that this is indeed true. This might sound gross for some, but my goal is not to offend you. I like to eat healthy for the most part and one of my favourite veggies is asparagus. So, I would eat a whole pack of asparagus and when I would go to the…
