I had a moment last week when I just wasn’t certain if I’d be able to rock a twist-out without clenching a few teeth and shaking a few fists. Weather here on the east coast has been nothi...
Late last week a few co-workers and I stole away to an amazingly beautiful loft in SoHo to indulge in a taste testing event centered around the multi-purpose, multi-awesome Naan! Essentially, a #food...

Well. It’s been a minute, yes? Can we play a quick catchup? Sabbaticals of varying lengths seem to be very popular on BTC…buuuut, FRO’s still been a busy beast. Last week it dawned ...
Early last month a woman decided to pack up a single bag, upend a few tired routines and book a two night stay in the heart of Washington DC with the only intent being to explore, eat & give than...

Lately their hasn’t been much time for a woman to do her laundry & cook a home cooked meal, let alone experiment with a new hair style…no matter how simple. But on a whim this week, &...
In between balancing a frenetic new job schedule and life in general, somehow the brunch gods made way for a few curlies & friends to enjoy an afternoon of cupcakes and yummy food last week! Than...
Today’s theme for February Photo of the day is “A Fav Photo of You,” and without hesitation I dug in the archives for this Summer pic taken on the morning of July 1st. I clung to th...

With a rainy forecast in a recent trip to DC, FRO managed something pretty flipping amazing amidst it all…a stellar twist-out courtesy of a new fav condish (that we’ve doubled as a styler...
After just coming back from one of the better African American artists profiles I’ve yet to visit over at the Corocan to see the 30 Americans in Washington, DC., there’s a strong sense th...
Today’s theme in the #FEBPHOTOADAY challenge is words and before I hunker down and start packing for tomorrow’s trip to DC, I snapped this pic of a vision board made just a few weeks ago....
Today’s the first day of Black History Month and I couldn’t be any happier to greet it with a positive outlook on what’s still to come this year! I’ve developed a habit over t...

The power of going Quiet in a world that often idolizes ascending noise and confusion is something I’ve come to yearn more and more lately. Today the internet, including this ‘ol blog, decided to hel...

So I thought long and hard about this one…and the ‘this one‘ being how to bring more awesome to BTC without sacrificing quality. Surprisingly, the answer was something I’ve be...
