Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to to. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you feel apart, that's true strength.

Happy Thanksgiving!
Good Morning, and Happy Thanksgiving you to and yours!
Today I am thankful for my life. Things may seem bad or not the way I would want them, but in reality someone didn't wake up this morning. That someone could have been me. I'm thankful for the wonderful husband God sent me. I know there are times when I drive him crazy, and he doesn't know what to do with me, but I'm thankful for him, and I'm so thankful to be his wife. I am also the loving friends and family that are in my life. I believe that my friends (online & offline) are my angels here on earth. The support and love of my family is truly a blessing, and I'm glad to my family is MY family. Lastly, I am thankful that I am safe, on the road to a healthier life, and happy, not many people can say that they are happy in these trying times. Life may not always be what we hoped for, but it is life and life is what YOU make it.
Happy Thanksgiving, and Be blessed!

Look what I found....
Greetings folks!
I've been searching for hair oil for my locs for about 6 months. For about 5 years I had been using Dark & Lovely's Almond Rain Oil Mist
But recently, I noticed that something about the product changed. I can't quite figure it out. All of the ingredients have remained the same, but something about it felt different. So, I set out to find a new oil for my thirsty locs.. and I FOUND this..
Motions Marula Hair and Scalp Oil. It is wonderful! The oil is light, smells great, and gives my locs great shine.

Spicy Pico Chicken & Mexican Rice
I haven't posted a recipe in a while so.. Enjoy!
Super Easy Spicy Pico Chicken & Homemade Mexican Rice
Easy Spicy Pico Chicken
Preheat Oven to 375
Washing & pat dry Chicken breasts
Season them with Lawrys or Season All), Garlic Powder, Black Pepper & Chili Powder
Bake covered for 45-60 mins or until juices run clear.
I buy fresh Pico de Gallo from Qdoba. It's the best Pico EVER, But you can use what you like. The guy that works at my Qdoba knows me, and he makes some spicy so I always ask for the spicy kind. After the chicken bakes, I cover the chicken with spicy bbq sauce and then place the pico on top and let it bake for 15 additional mins.
Top with fresh chopped cilantro and cheddar cheese.
Super Easy Mexican Rice
You need:
Make white rice as you would normally & Drain in excess water
Chop and saute one medium Onion and set aside
1 can of diced chili peppers
1 can of tomato sauce
Mix Rice, Onion, Tomato Sauce, and peppers together. Season with Salt, Pepper and a pinch of garlic powder
Simmer on low for 15 mins and Enjoy!
