A year ago, I found myself feeling misplaced. I saw a young, supple face, harassed by breakouts like never before… a head full of healthy, full locs with a personality of their own… glasses that slipped and slid, with a prescription way past expiration. That is not what I had envisioned for my 24-year old self. I was going through a mom crisis of sorts or a quarter life crisis (maybe a bit of both). “It’s not as bad as it seems”, I thought. “It’s only a few simple tasks.” After going back and forth with myself, I asked myself [...]

I have been trying to make a conscious effort to take care of myself. I’m doing more with my hair, I keep my nails painted, and there are days when I dabble in makeup. I’m cool on jeans/pants, shoes, and bags, but I could use a few more cute tops. But where I’m really hurting is in the cute (grown woman) underwear department. It’s been years and years since I’ve purchased underwear, honestly. I’m still finding pairs still rolled up in tape from college. So the next thing on my self-care list is accumulating some cute underwear so I can [...]

Since I recently wrote about how to conceive a girl, I thought it would be timely to offer a giveaway for some romantic goodies from EdenFantays. EdenFantasys is the only adult shop that I work with and shop from because I just love how organized and tasteful their storefront is. I mean you’re going to see a toy or two upon arrival, but the design is so clean and professional. None of that dark devilish stuff that may shame customers away. EdenFantasys promotes sexual well-being by providing educational video product overviews and reviews (company and user submitted), discussions and articles. [...]

Today’s prompt for #febphotoaday is “front door”. I have no words to go along with the photo. I am just typing this little bit so the homepage of my blog doesn’t look funky.

I went back and forth between wanting to take a picture of my sewing box full of loose buttons or Jayden’s nose. I ended up taking a picture of an Xbox controller. Heh.

I was supposed to be making meatballs and homemade mashed potatoes (debated in the paleo community) for dinner, but I didn’t feel like it. It’s my fault. I had pancakes for breakfast and crashed all day. They were delicious, but within a couple of bites I couldn’t even keep my head up. I’m waiting on some almonds so that I can make almond flour pancakes. My body definitely cannot tolerate white flour (a paleo no no, but I was craving). There’s about a cup of it left, once it’s gone, it’s gone. On a related note, I made Dairy-Free Strawberry [...]

I’ve been up since after 6AM. I got enough sleep, but I’m dragging. I’m bored and I want change. I can’t concentrate on what I should be doing because I am uninspired. I’m off to rearrange the furniture in the living room… if that’s even possible since everything revolves around the TV that is mounted to the wall. #febphototoday © Sophistishe 2012 | Permalink | No comment – Oh, I see how it is…
