I LOVE CHANGE!

Dang!!!
Last post from May..geez lol

Due to my short absence, I have accepted a position at a very nice corporation that is every girl's dream selling makeup, skincare and everything under the sun.

We all love this store so much it's a mecca. My new postion....

DRUM ROLL PLEASE!

Arch Expert for Benefit!!!

I love my pink 50's inspired apron, the fun in being the brow go to lady here in merry ol East Texas.
Benefit fits me to a T= Pink, fun, full of laughter and can I say fit the laid back vibe of the six pillars of Benefit.

Bold and girly--that's ME!

It's been an honor and a pleaure to be on the radio on our grand opening with an interview.  Dude, my name is spreading slowly but surely as one of the best in brows in the area.
I am great and passionate about brows but also skincare and makeup.  Funny thing, brows was never my jam in school and working in the beauty industry.  Somehow brow waxing, threading and grooming met up with me in a later life cycle and enjoy every minute of making women; beautiful inside and out.  And guys--you are included in the magic too!  Hey don't be shy about getting those caterpillars tamed, nothing wrong with a good cleanup and NO you're not a metrosexual for doing it either.  Male grooming is important but much simple and basic just like cleaning the dirt from your fingernails.  Don't worry, you're still a man to us women but taking care of the basics.


Other than that X-Men sucked...HAHHAHHAHAHHAHAA
But Fassbender tho.....

Hey Magneto...(wink)





Wanna get your supernatural, thriller fix?

Good show and love the 80's mood, acting and vibe in this Netflix series.
Such a BIG CHANGE FROM Orange is the New Black...
so through with that show; too depressing and can't have that messing with the chi energy.  I see why my Dad didn't speak about his position as a C.O.---you'll wouldn't spout about working at a prison either.



Well good people, take care and many adventures ahead

Peace and Blessings!

Summer blockbusters, Summertime body and ate some mud along the way...

How fly was Captain America: Civil War????

Besties til the end

Spoolsh Paul Rudd!!!

Better than Dawn of Justice!!!!!

This movie blew me away in every aspect of the comic book movies trends. Not to spoil it too much, Antman and Black Panther stole the show.  Shoot, Spiderman's cameo is off the chain.
In aspect of the sexy ass grown man hawtness levels💪💪💪💪 it is 3.14π.

No, I did not pick a side because both had credible points, both Iron Man/Tony Stark and Captain America/Steve Rogers are right.

My father took me out for Mother's Day dinner and guess the main topic??
Captain America!! Mind you he's use to my *colorful vernacular* on the topic of good looking actors.  He's very brave-- when I say brave he sat through Magic Mike XXL on his visit at my house.  A man's perspective is interesting when the movie is about male entertainers.

*Ladies, Magic Mike the Show in Las Vegas is heading our way in March 2017*

Now I cannot wait to see X-Men, which have a 50/50 live or die situation.
Those are my 2 movies of the year, if something else capture my interest.  Take that back watched Divergent late March, not too bad IMO the second Divergent movie is better. Maybe because the audience in San Francisco is receptive to arts and entertainment.  Love to hit a cool drive-in in Austin or a movie in the park.

Enough of my comic book movie nerdage.....

2016 Mud Run 5k was the most amazing and muddiest activity I've participated.  You talking about tough, geez very tough!

I left there with a smile completing in 1hr and 20 minutes.  Wasn't any different from going into the woods where snakes, frogs and other wild animals live.  After 3 showers I was still pumped and went out country & western dancing later on.  Now that what I call an Amazing Saturday!!

Shedding the winter pounds and getting back into my summer shape. Not too much weight gain but it does need to leave, doing pretty well; arms are toning up, abs a little and the legs are getting stronger.

Summer is approaching and fun times are coming.
At least I didn't say 'Winter is coming' hahahaha

Peace & Blessings

Essential Oils are AMMMMAAAZZINNNGGG!!!

Meet our newest member of the Classy Cow Crew!

Hiya Everyone!

The newest member of the bovine family is doing well.  What a gorgeous little one.

She's afraid of me!

These little ones are getting older since November and January, very feisty crew and love sweet pellets and water.  We use to have red and white ones but the last one passed from a coyote attack back in 2012.  My Dad take care of them and they LOOOVVVEEEE him to death; wish you can see it when seeing my father walking outside they literally run full speed to the fence, saying "hello" in cow speak. (giggles)

As you can see my slender red fingertips petting the cow, she afraid of me, should had a hand full of pellets, would have had cow slobber all over my hand. Don't worry they do not bite.

As a child, I love throwing the hay off my Big Daddy's truck feeding the cows when coming home from a long day's work.  Every time the blue Chevy goes truckin' through the pasture the whole herd follows.  We use to have a milk heifer name Mindy and she kicked my arm while showing off that I can milk a cow.  One day she fell into a mud hole and coyotes ravaged her body but barely alive.  After pulling her out the hole, she held on for almost 3 days before going to bovine heaven.  I cried and realized she actually FOUGHT off starving coyotes stuck in a mud hole with a broken leg! This girl has been with us for almost 11 years and amazed how resilient cows are.
When getting older I was ashamed to admit of being a country girl and stop going out in the field with my grandfather. Now? VERY PROUD!

This what kept our family afloat for 40 years when started off with 2 heifers and one bull, growing to a large livestock in the 80's and 90's.  Our livestock is small but Dad keeps it going after grandfather passed away, continuing legacy.

"Take care of them, they'll take care of you"---late Lee. C. Lacy
The words of my grandfather are eternal.

Gorgeous

Moooooooo mutha--shut yo mouf!

Happy Easter and Take Care.

Thoughts on Batman vs Superman

I left the theater in a pretty good mood about the Batman vs Superman.

As a comic lover for ages, the film itself wasn't too bad but not extremely excellent. So when I start seeing how critics and fans alike ripping a new one; I clicked off.  Didn't want to read them because opinions are different.  When I watched Deadpool last month, I love every bit of it. Sure the budget wasn't big like YOU KNOW WHO Superhero teams that are coming out next month (ahem) but crazily enjoyed the film and Ryan Reynolds who I've known since breaking out in the ABC flop "Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza".
Finally seen Green Lantern--they did you EXTREMELY WRONG just like in Wolverine: Origins.

Only spoiler I will give you ladies, there are two scenes where Henry (Clark/Superman) and Ben (Bruce Wayne/Batman) are shirtless.  Yep, said the "dayum" in the softest voice and my timeless look.

DVD scratch because of him

YES he looks like this!!

Thought I was going to crack some Ben Affleck jokes and slide in Will Arnett's Lego Batman the opportunity didn't strike..the mood of the film didn't allow me. Though tried so many times in my head, jokes said NOPE not today!

*Found out why couldn't crack an Affleck joke the image above*


Have fun seeing Batman vs Superman overall its a 7 but 20 in Henry Cavill and Ben Affleck's good looks and dedication in preparing their bodies..umm I meant roles.  :)


I don't know if you guys notice but both men have a cleft in their chins!!
Bring back the sexy strong cleft chin just like hairy chests!!!

Howdy!

Your favorite awesome Texas girl is back!

Had a blast this weekend; visited the family, made Arroz con Gandules and enjoyed a night out dancing the night away continuing my birthday month.

I went for a vintage pin-up look hahaha the good ol bathroom selfie at my father's house.  I love this dress! Modcloth have amazing pin up and vintage dresses from up and coming designers.  The variety of my fashion is from the 40's to late 80's era maybe a couple of today's fashion but can't stop dressing like this since a little girl. As a non-conformist, love to have fun with my fashion, make it my own and not follow the trends. Being unique is all about having fun and individualism!  So trekking back to Rick's been almost 2 years??? A nice band played singing from 80's to today hits.  Empire 6 which is the sister to IDT and still a damn good band.

Went to Rose City Brewery to end the evening of dancing.  Nice place and pretty new to Tyler, go Tyler, Texas!

We'll get BETTER at it!

I made Arroz con Gandules for the first time. Not bad for this Kountry Girl!  Thought I forgot the salt..grrrr hey my Dad tore it up! If you guys do not know what it is; a Puerto Rican rice dish.  Very simple to make and really goes great with pork chops.  Another staple dish added to my basic cooking skills. Had the approval from a native Puerto Rican for my skills and yes she judged the color, how it looked etc..  Next time SALT..:)










Another addition to our bovine family, on March 19th we had another calf! Yaaaaa!!!!!!  A beautiful bouncing (sorta of wobbly) black and white calf with a white tip on his tail. Pictures are coming soon......

Another adventure, another blog coming soon. Who knows what I'll do next?????

Peace & Blessings

Howdy Everyone!

Came back from another fun filled trip to San Francisco again.  Yes, for the 3rd time in a row San Fran been winning my heart over and over.  The gorgeous men, delicious food, plenty of walking and the fun day activities and night life that I totally love.

Didn't start off on a good foot due to being late for my flight. Never in a million years as I thought but happened.  Finally booking a last minute flight on a different airline the plane took off from George Bush International and my troubles went away.

For some good ol Southern cooking hit up Brenda's French Soul Food on Polk St.

My goodness alive, never had a great plate of shrimp n grits with a cream biscuit that is exactly like home without the guilt, excessive grease (South is know for good ol' lard and butter deep frying) and a generous amount for the price.  Letting you know, I caught the ITIS and had to walk it off a couple of block before hitting the Asian Art Museum on Larkin St.  What you think I was going to eat a good ol plate of food and walk back to my hotel to nap? Shiiddd, that's for suckers!

The ITIS didn't win today!

The museum was amazing! The staff are generous and the learning experience of Asian art, culture and current exhibitions are on display. Camera photography is not permitted in the exhibitions on display so really the beauty of it is to experience without pulling a camera/video out at every second.  Another hidden gem after my trek is the French Library on Bush St. called Alliance Fracaise  Being a bookworm, my brain geeked out while my thirsty hands touched every book in French and sat down to sorta read a graphic novel.  So if you want to get your nerd on in a different language, buy a book (5.00-2.00) head on to the library to soak as much French from survival to fluent good reads.

Nightlife is the most exciting part of San Francisco of being famous for a party town.  Pretty much everything is poppin' like popcorn.  Happy hour is very different from happy hour from a small town.   The Vestry's Sinful Happy Hour in the Mission District is diivvinnneee!!  Parlor Tricks (the band) played, sampling mac n cheese with tomato jam washing it down with their drink specials.  The Valhalla was the poison of choice and yes I went Asgard--twice.  Thor and the gang was down the street at Blondie's Bar for martinis. Any martini is made, even build your own.  

After much so much fun it was time to say good-bye heading back to the Lone Star State but first a good ass donut from Bob's Donut Shop & Pastry Shop that morning. Thanks to BWWOB creator the fabulous beautiful Mrs. Dee Lefrak for the culinary delight suggestion those are the BEST donuts I've ate in a long time!

Ladies, I urge you to come to San Francisco for a helluva time. Especially non-conformist black women that live in the Southern regions!!!! You can say L.A. and other metro cities for diversity (which I've been) but San Francisco have been my go-to place for three years straight and always a different adventure. Do put on good walking shoes, a smile and an upbeat attitude! Also do keep in shape because of the hills, if not DO get into SHAPE! There's LOTS of WALKING!!! 

P.S. For you single ladies, plenty of good-looking men from all ethnic background and STRAIGHT! Don't let anyone tell you differently, be ready to mingle like a lady with an open-mind to swirl! ;)  It's a mecca for us.

Being diverse and open-minded leads to many adventures:
