Recipe: Lemon Butter Chicken

This Lemon Butter Chicken is my absolute favorite recipe. It is a quick, one-pan dish full of flavor. It’s fabulous for a weekday meal, impress the in-laws or just having friends over. Anyone that appreciates flavors will want to jump knee-deep into this lemon garlic sauce.  I have made this a million times and it never disappoints! I’ve been cooking this recipe since it was posted on Damn Delicious in 2014. I…

2019 Billboard Charts Sound Real Familiar

What is one song that you would like to deem untouchable to be sampled? Mine would’ve been New Edition ‘Can You Stand The Rain ‘. Unfortunately, K. Michelle recently sampled it. It could’ve been pulled off with more sustenance within the lyrics but that’s another whole ’nother conversation about our state of lyrical content. I am here to chat about our classics being tampered with without the utmost respect.  I believe that sampling tastefully is a skill that has been perfected by producers. We…

12 Hours in Chattanooga

The good friend of mine and I scoped out a day trip to Chattanooga, Tennessee aka Chat Town aka Rock City. I want to take you along so let’s rewind and run it back, Turbo. We drove an hour and a half from the outskirts of Atlanta, GA to Chattanooga, TN. It was a straight shot accompanied with a tiny bit of rain. The ride was scenic as we scurried…

Keep That Same Energy

Always holding my breath that something will happen or someone will disappoint me. Being an adult can easily turn into paying bills and sitting on hold with customer service. Why so serious? That youth and vigor before adulthood took over – keep that same energy because we need it. Don’t lose the glitter. I find myself holding back. Tucking my glitter in a safe because this cruel world doesn’t deserve…

Shine Your Light

Imagine laying in your bed – hitting snooze for the third time. In that moment you contemplate, “ Is this job/class really worth it?”. The next second, you get a text that says “ The ‘Gotta Dos’ get us to the ‘Get to Dos’. You stop to ponder on that thought and it gives you a boost. That boost just got you out of bed with enough time to get…

Affirmations are quotes typical spoken aloud to oneself or silently. The art of spoken word helps us form our realities or at least make them more bearable.  We often are our own oppressors and bullies because we let negative…

Homegrown Fun At The SC State Fair

Bellies full and lungs are screaming. It’s time for the fair. Honestly , I haven’t been to the fair in about 3 years. I love the atmosphere of the fair. The mesmerizing smells of the fresh fried  foods, simple sweet cotton candy. Nostalgic Fresh Squeezed Lemonade and the dazzle of fireworks over the lake . There’s a thrill when you overhear the  screams of riders on the Fireball ride swinging…

Enhancing the Lifestyle

The jig is up. You can’t eat all this food on my page and achieve slim thick goals for summer. There has got to be balance. I have the best intentions to work out until life gets in the way. I need help with accountability. So, little ‘ol me joined a boot camp for 30 days. Burn Boot Camp to be exact. I was drawn to this boot camp because there was a Groupon for…
