I made a three-bean chili last week which was DELICIOUS. Levi (boyfriend) actually ate it for 2 days, this means he REALLY liked it!
*Vegenize is a word that I totally made up, I will pronounce it veh-jah-nize*
This week I started the week off with this Crab Egg Noodle Pasta dish which was an EPIC FAILURE :( I should be making some pizza later this week. I'm making a homemade sauce, the pizza will be topped with goat cheese, kalamata olives and basil...hopefully it will turn out better.
Me and my hur...
I've been so busy, I haven't had time to even two-strand twist my hair. It's been pretty ridiculous. Here are some pics of styles I've been rocking.
Princess twists
Side twist w/ a braid
My 'Fro
I have to make a comment about my afro. I wore my afro when I went into Anthro and I got compliments galore. These girls were so surprised that my hair could "do that." It was hilarious, one girl asked me, "where did you get it done?" I simply explained that, "This is how my hair looks when I do nothing to it." They even ventured to say I looked like a model. I typically avoid rocking my natural fro because I have received comments such as, "Bad hair day?" or, "Did you forget to do your hair today?" when I've worn it like this. Clearly I was shocked to receive such positive feedback at Anthro!Sidenote: I have noticed that a lot of natural models have kinky hair and rock short-medium fro...not saying I'm a model or anything, lol!
My life in general...
I cut my eye in a bball game (I play 1/wk in a local league), so that's the generation of the scar over my eye if you see it in my hair pics. It was just a deep abrasion from an elbow...nothing serious...
It's festival/flea market season in Philly. Last weekend was the Spring Festival and the Fairmount Flea Market. I picked up a GORGEOUS 1950's a-line dress from one vendor. I will be showcasing it soon and will definitely post pics when I do. I also picked up this great beaded Native-American inspired belt...probably from the 70's. FYI...Pine Street Flea Market (4th & Pine) is this weekend!
I saw Corinne Bailey Rae LIVE in concert. In summary, she's amazing. I love her new album, The Sea, I feel that it's a soulful mix of rock and jazz. Her voice is so pure - not a lot of vibrato - and I love it! I'm going to see Erykah Badu in Upper Darby in a couple of weeks...I hope she's just as enjoyable.
