For the longest time, Valentine’s Day was one of my least favorite holidays. Usually, bad things happened – I’d get dumped, I’d be unable to celebrate, or whatever the case may have been back in my pre-Hubs days. Nowadays, we’re kind of over Valentine’s Day. This year, we’re getting small gifts but there will beRead More
TBR: Romance & Black Authors
I am a SUCKER for a good romance book. A good fiction piece that leaves me feeling warm and fuzzy. So that’s what I’m focusing on reading this month. Given also that it’s Black History Month, I want to focus on elevating my favorite Black Authors AND reading new ones. I remember reading in theRead More

My Favorite Workout Mask
Y’all, working out with a mask is the worst. Necessary, given Pandemic times but still the worst.
