I almost lost my last nerve yesterday y’all. I left my house at 5am for a 7am flight and two layovers and 15 hours later, I touched down in Los Angeles. In Phoenix, I boarded an aircraft, broke down Gia’s stroller, shoved my ish into the cramped overhead compartment, sat on the tarmac for 30 minutes, wrestled with Gia, de-boarded,…

circa spring 2002… don’t. even. Hola Chicas, So hubby cautiously pointed out I realize that lately my hair has been twisted up and hidden away… nose in the corner… on a timeout… allowed to see the light of day only for special occasions.

This woman is a masterful story teller, even more gorgeous in person and don’t even get me started on that glorious hair! O.M.G.! Sorry for the dramatics, but this ish is real. We drove four treacherous…
Five hundred curlies and natural hair advocates came from near and far (Kentucky, Indiana and KC was in the house!) to mingle at EXO lounge in St. Louis, Missouri. The event, sponsored by Shea Moisture, was absolutely fabulous and I must say… my hometown represented well! After a brief welcome from yours truly, the ladies talked it up all night…
Go Boogie, Go Boogie, Go!…Go! Go! Go! …that’s what we chant when Boogie is well, boogying. She loves to dance… and I mean LOVES.TO.DANCE.

Hola Chicas, OMGosh. Best meetup ever. The Florida naturals showed up and showed out! When I arrived at the fabulous Blue Martini, there was a line wrapped around the building… the 350 Mizani goody bags were gone in an hour. Epic.
