If Looks Could Kill, What Kind of Murderer Would You Be?

19 April, 20160

Typically, when someone says "If Looks Could Kill," they are talking about someone's physical attributes. That perfectly created masterpiece of a human specimen is so mesmerizing, that their looks could literally stop our hearts. However, there are so many other looks that could kill in a far more painful way. Here are three that I thought of. Could you think of more? Disappointment: Here I was in the fifth grade, "bushy-tailed and bright eyed" as they say, and his name was Andre. Copper toned Read more [...]

The Messy Girl Chronicles: Isabel Dandridge

5 April, 20160

I am probably the biggest mess you will ever meet. A true survivor ever since I could remember, but a lover of pain, lusting after torture. I am my biggest mistake. A tortured soul. How do you run from yourself? To tell you the truth, I don't even know how I got here. How did I become this woman? Was it my childhood? Was it my parents? Or is it just the way my chromosomes match up? Why do I love so hard? Why do I feel peoples pain? Why is my empathy on a level that I don't find often in others? I Read more [...]

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 [...]

Life brings us many ups and downs without any help needed from us. Loss of a loved one to death, layoffs, unexpected additions to family, life. Life happens.

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 [...]

Today I Write

23 January, 20160

Today I Write. Today I write for the tortured soul. Today I write for the wife whose husband keeps cheating on her and she doesn't know why. I write for the loyal girlfriend who has the disrespectful, non-affectionate boyfriend. I write for the mother who gives her all to her ain't sh** kids. I write for the child that cries for it's mom or dad. Today I write. I write for the people who constantly endure the selfishness of others. I write for the lovers whose hearts are so big they Read more [...]

The Ultimate Blueprint Tour with Vivica Fox, Wendy Raquel, Towanda Braxton & more!

5 January, 20160

Out with the old in with new! The new year is loved not because of the fireworks, the overload of alcohol, or the free kisses at midnight. No, the new year is loved because of the fresh start it gives everyone. Although many strive to be a better person each day, its something about January first that says clean slate. On social media I saw a flood of status updates, tweets, and memes, that said the same thing: "Today is the first page of your 365 page book." People began their career journeys, Read more [...]
