Pasta Salad

This week I made a delicious pasta salad. I love cooking and after a long hiatus of some sort, I'm now able to do one of the things I love the most.

Most of my delight comes from others enjoying my work.

I love the thank you text and t from friends of friends for a plate. Maybe I should become a caterer. Hmmmm ;-)

I used Linguini noodles, shrimp, scallops and crab sauteed with butter, white wine, and chicken broth, tossed in a four cheese alfredo sauce, and topped with diced tomatoes, parsley, and  grated parmesan cheese. Voila! an easy dish with a impressively complicated feel.

This is the first post to one of the many dishes I make. I will continue to share them but will post recipes according to response.

Until next time!

Tia Mowry- Hardrict Says She Cried When She Big Chopped

Although daring for a black celebrity actress to do so, Tia Mowry made the decision to release the dragon and cut her lengthy locks!

We as people on the outside looking in tend not to like change but who could be mad at this adorable pixie cut?

When asked on the red carpet why?  She responded,

"I feel like with hair, comes a lot of experiences and emotion, and I needed to just let things go and get rid of a lot of things."

We hear you sista. How many of us have  emotional or even bad experiences with our hair and the people that view us? It can be nerve wrecking sometimes.

While some of us live fast and free with our big chop decisions, The Game starlet admits she cried.

"... hair was all over the floor. I was like, ‘Oh My God’ and I started to cry."

Mowry told US Weekly,

"I cried! I’m just going to be honest with you, I definitely cried,”

But woes don't last for ever. She reminds us how easy it is to style and go, only taking 3 minutes!

“A lot of people ask me, ‘What advice would you give to women who want to chop it off?’ I said, ‘Don't think about it because if you do you won’t do it.’ But it’s very liberating... I am so happy that I decided to cut my hair."

Well if you like it we love it!  Even though this beauty doesn't wear her hair curly all the time we still know and share pride and struggle.

“I get out of the shower, put some conditioner in it, and it’s just ‘let’s go’ and I love that! I think it’s very very important to find products that allow us to be able to have more time to do things like that.”

So what's next Tia, maybe a product line?

Whatever it is we wish you luck in your journey.

Braid Craze

Solange Knoulwes braided up do

Braids ar still as stylish as they were "Back in the days when I was young I'm not a kid anymore, but some days I sit and wish I was a kid again." Remember that?!

Here are some pictures of my favorite protective stlye.

Note: If you have thinning sides and think synthetic braids will be too much for your weakened strands, try braiding sectioned tresses together before attaching synthetic hair, to create a stronger base. Then add synthetic hair. This will relieve stress off your scalp and protect weak tresses!
