Houston Celebrates The Black Culinary Scene

29 March, 20160

If you know anything about TotallyRandie, then you know I am a philanthropy/foodie nazi amongst many other things. I'll try anything once, maybe twice just to get a better opinion. That's why Houston/Any City Restaurant Week is one of my favs! It merges the two! However I asked the same question as did PBS in 2012 "Where are the black chefs?". Well we have been seeing an increase in black culinary artist, and this week Houston unveils its inaugural Houston Black Restaurant Week that celebrates Read more [...]

5 Lessons You Learn About Marriage From The Outside Looking In

15 March, 20160

If you follow me on social media, then you are probably aware that I was just in North Carolina celebrating the 5th Anniversary of some really good friends of mine. To see people value marriage is like a cold glass of water in today's desert society. This blog has NOTHING to do with them or their marriage. Their event was simply the muse behind it. They inspired me to have this conversation. With that being said, you don't have to be married for marriage to teach you some very important lessons. Read more [...]

Why Being 40 & Single Might Not Be Such A Bad Idea

29 February, 20160

Women and men share a different vantage point on singleness. For the most part, if you are a woman and you are approaching 40 and you are single you might as well wear a scarlet A on your chest. Poor you, the lonely unloved soul that's tortured everyday by looking at happy affectionate couples. Your singleness is your own fault and the guy you passed over is living happily ever after, along with the jerk you gave a chance. Singleness for a woman is the ultimate ugly. Now If you are in a dilemma right Read more [...]

Good Guys Always Finish Last

19 February, 20160

I trusted someone with all my heart once. It was the best feeling of my life. Do you know what it feels like to believe in someone or something so much that your mind never questions, never hesitates, never doubts? It's security. Then that trust was broken, smashed like glass hitting cement, like an iceberg hitting the Titanic; obliterated by one act of disloyalty. Sure on the surface the wound looks like it would heal, but internally the damage is still having an effect. They say when you boil something Read more [...]

4 Ways to Love Being Single on February 14th

11 February, 20160

Here we are 3 days removed from the day the entire world celebrates love. But lets be honest, it is also a day that singles get ostracized, and sometimes not on purpose. Statistics still show a heightened percentage of depression around this time of the year. What makes it even worst, is that we live (even more so today) in a social media centered world. Singles may feel forced to have to validate why they are single, why they aren't sad that they are not getting surprised gifts of candy, teddy Read more [...]

Irreconcilable Differences

9 February, 20160

Guest Blogger: Jai Green His Words: Lazy, just plain lazy. She would get finished eating and wait literally 4-5 hours to put up her plate. Who does that?! Washing, folding and putting up clothes took 4-5 days and don't get me started on dog care, and personal items. A bra here, a shoe there, nothing was ever in order. She wanted the dog, so I got her one. Did she clean it? No. All she ever did was feed it. She barely cleaned up after it. 1 whole year of being married and she couldn't adjust her Read more [...]
