Happy Friday! What a week! Such a long week for me and now we are headed into Summer’s Unofficial start; Memorial Day Weekend. So what were the highs and lows of the week?
Birthday Brunch
Yes I told y’all I was going to have one more brunch for my 40th and I did! My friend, Kyla and I brunched at Positano Coast in Philadelphia! It was absolutely amazing. The food was fresh, the service was good, and the bottomless mimosas were everything! Oh one thing about Positano Coast is that even when I was done with my food and drinks they still brought one more round or mimosas. We also went and had a drink at Cuba Libre and laughed and talked at a dog Park! Don’t ask! It was full of fun!
Shout out to my girl Krystle for the birthday sash
Hair Change
Did you notice in the above picture that I straighten my hair?! Yup! That’s me! It’s still very natural. It’s a beautiful thing to be able to go from straight to curls with no issues. Natural hair is very versatile! I love having my hair healthy no matter what style. I plan on going back and forth and including some protective styles as Summer progresses.
Surgery
I am going to have to get surgery in the near future. The blogs will not be affected as June’s content is already edited and ready! I do ask that you keep me in prayer. The surgery isn’t major thankfully but is necessary. The downtime we shall see how long it lasts. I will have more on that within the coming week!
Mini Me’s Birthday
My oldest daughter celebrated her 12th birthday! She’s such a doll. She is growing up and we are riding the waves. Being a parent or a preteen is beautiful and exhausting at the same time. Helping her figure out herself as well as knowing the growing pains we have experienced with her lately are simply a phase. So send some coffee and wine love my way! My husband and I had an intimate family celebration with just us! We made sure she got most of the things she asked for. We also took her to get her first pedicure and manicure. To see the fun, check out my Reel!
AAPI Solidarity Fundraiser
Dance is a way to bring us all together! So with that in mind, Dancer’s Unlimited will be holding dance workshops on Sunday May 30th. This Is an AAPI fundraiser! The proceeds will go to APEX for Youth that helps to underserved youth Asian and immigrants from low income families in New York! Later today I will be interviewing Linda Kuo the director! I’ll have the interview posted tomorrow at the latest. This event is by ticket only and masks must be worn! Thanks to BKLYNITE Media for the information. If you’re in the New York area and are in need of media representation look no further than BKLYNITE media!
June Content
There are a lot of things happening in June especially with the world opening up! I would suggest you follow me on Facebook and Instagram as I keep you informed of National events and local Philadelphia events. June content is being finalized this weekend. I can’t even believe that June is the last month of the second quarter. Already half a year is under us! Wow! Time to step it up so we can end the year on a high note!
Memorial Day Weekend
My family and I plan to be at home relaxing. That’s it! I look absolutely forward to being home and cozy! It’s supposed to rain this weekend. We will be happily low key. The only thing I will be doing is getting my snacks together to catch up on television I haven’t seen! Memorial Day is about honoring the fallen. Those who gave their lives for our freedom. So as a military brat I definitely do not tolerate any ignorance about the armed forces!
Blogs you May Have Missed
It’s been a great week! We talked about self care. Here’s what you missed:
Monday Motivation: Someone is going to be mad
Mental Health Check: Adult Coloring Books
We also shared a lot of content as we always do! Catch up by going to Instagram and Facebook!
Products To Try
This week we showcased Active Wow’s drinkable skincare! It’s a green tea powder that can be added to hot or cold drinks. I prefer it in my tea. It gives you glowing skin because it’s supplying you with 6 essentials. It’s also plant based! Use code TOITIME20!
Have an amazing week. We will not have Monday Motivation in reference to Memorial Day on Monday! We start Tuesday off with staycations! It’s important to pour into yourself! So what better way than some amazing sleep and rest in a different environment!
Have an amazing rest of your day and weekend!
