There ain’t no use being hot as fish grease, she seems to understand, if someone else wields the spatula and holds the keys to the cash register.

hot chocolate daddy’s


as i sit and think about all the beautiful handsome men that come across my path daily, whether it be on the streets of new york or through this wonderful thing call the internet, I am mesmerized by some in particular. im talking about the hot chocolate daddy’s of the world, also known as HCD. i can’t think of any other race that provides such variety when it comes to men better than the african american race. i mean they come in all different flavors and sometimes it’s just too hard to choose.


a little background of where HCD came from, my girlfriend N (didn’t ask if I could use her name) actually introduced me to this amazing acronym a little wile ago. i was already an admirer of the 43 flavors of men that God so graciously blessed me with. but this was a fun new way to nicely admire or point them out. so from now on wen im out with my girlfriends, or alone, and see a nice scoop of black walnut, double chocolate fudge, or my personal favorite chocolate and peanut butter i quietly whisper HCD into the atmosphere.


dont get me wrong people, i thoroughly enjoy a scoop of butter pecan every now and then.

new year better me

i usually try not to blog about things that are really personal to me. not because i am ashamed of what others may think but merely because i dont want to jinx them. i have had many blessings come my way. starting with moving to new york and starting living my dream of a publishing student. i never would have thought in a million years that i would actually be on the path to something that i believe i was destined to do. i realize that i have a long way to go and a lot more learning to do, but the point is that it’s been started. my seed is planted. my dream began with just a leap of faith. since being in new york for the past 4 months i have been able to put a cute little roof over my head, plenty of food in my belly and everything thing else that i need to take care of me. i honestly believe that when you have faith and be patient, blessings will flow. im not saying that i dont have my struggles, cause i do, but i float right on through and keep kicking. its the only thing i know how to do. so this year i want to make it a point to do several things a tad bit differently.


  1. blog more, and more personal things

  2. travel, no matter where, just travel

  3. become more positive on the things that i cannot control

  4. fall in love again. not necessarily with a person but with writing or a new hobby

  5. make a vision board and follow it

  6. avoid people who bring bad ju ju to my life

  7. call, not text, to my sisters more often

  8. go to a lot of concerts

  9. dance every single day

  10. learn to LOVE the woman i am becoming

im turning 25 this year and i have a lot of things in my life that i want to do. i dont want to look back at this year and feel bad about the things i never did. im going embrace each day knowing that im going to rock it. its my life. so who better to live it than me.
