Date Day

This weekend I spent some quality time with my honey. I was so happy to see him again. He went back to his home country of Trinidad for a few weeks so it felt like forever not seeing him. Plus we're kind of in a long distance relationship so we're always missing each other. I live in Los Angeles and he lives in San Diego which is about two hours away but, we make it work. So I drove down to San Diego this past weekend and we had a lovely date day. I would call it a date night but, clearly the sun is still out in the pics lol The weather was beautiful this weekend and I had  a wonderful time. Hope you ladies had a great weekend too :)


I bought the boo some chocolate covered fruit. He loves fruit.


Gone with the wind Fabulous! I don't think i'll ever get tired of saying that lol


Cocktails



My Geeky Glasses. 

Me and the boo.

These past few weekends  I've taken a fond liking to wine. 

My honey ordered steak.

I got the black and white sesame seed salmon.

Lobster mac and cheese. So yummy.

Over the Weekend

  The past few weekends have been very laid back. I've just been in the house which has been kind of nice. The only downside to being home these past few weekends is that I've kind of been a lazy bum lol

It wouldn't be a Saturday night with out a bottle of Moscato.
Brown stew chicken, white rice with coconut milk, and Jamaican festival bread . Holler! lol
Really didn't want to but, have to stay healthy.

Healthy Lunch Sunday afternoon.
The rhoa reunion. Gone with the wind fabulous! 
Killed the bottle Sunday night.
Happy Monday!

Summer Hair

So I know it's only spring but, summer is on my mind right now. I'm trying to figure out a summer hair style that is low maintenance and cost effective and braids came to mind. I've been wanting to do Box Braids for sometime now but, have always been worried with how heavy they are and the tension it would cause around my hair line. Individual braids at one point were my go to style while I was trying to grow my awkward hair length out from my failed relaxer but, wearing them very often did do some damage. Wearing braids can be kind of tricky sometimes. If you get them to small or big they can pull your hair out . Plus you have to be very careful on who you let install them into your hair because if they braid to tight not only will it cause damage it will be very painful on your scalp. So i"m not sure if wearing this style is the right thing to do for my hair this summer but, they're so darn cute! Uggg! lol I have to figure it out. I'll be sure to post pics of  whatever I decided to do.
