Happy Overrated Valentine’s Day!

Yeah, yeah, yeah..I said it. It’s overrated. Especially if you are not a teenager. This is the time when chocolate/candy stores, lingerie (especially VS & Fredricks), hallmark and teddy bear stores stick you up for your money. Everything is in pink and hearts. And let’s not forget the restaurants. They change their menu for the […]

The Silent Killer: Inflammatory Breast Cancer

I hope I am not putting too much of a damper on your week this week. If anything, I’m trying to do the opposite. Just raising awareness and if my posts could save one life or help just one person, then it’s definitely all worth it. I came across this video, and it made me […]

Missing Fathers.

What are the effects of a home without a father? Having a home with a missing father can be the result of many different things:

Dad passed on early in a child’s life
He could have been sent to war
It could be a father that constantly travels or traveled for work
Due to a broken marriage
Deadbeat dads
He could […]

Salma Hayek Breastfeeds A Hungry African Baby

UPDATE: Salma Hayek breastfeeding baby in Africa. Warning: You will see a baby take her last breath. Be prepared. Also, though, Salma and my post stated that the baby she breastfed was healthy, the baby was actually sick. See for yourself. As always, spread the word. Do your part.

Yes, you heard right. Salma lends her […]

Z & Her Baby: Preparing Her For The Unborn

No, not the one in my belly or hers (because she thinks there’s one in there), but the one her big mama got her for Christmas. (”Big mama” is my older sister. She is to all my kids.) Zurhi actually just follows her around everywhere, and my sister loves it too. I can’t count how […]

Bleached Skin Isn’t The New Black.

A few weeks ago, I stumbled upon a Tyra Banks show that caught my attention. First of all, I have to give Tyra some credit. Personally, I think Ms. Banks can be a little on the annoying side because she talks over her guests, and audience, however, I appreciate her intentions. I appreciate what she […]

Daddy’s Girl.

Though we have known since I was about 4 months along, we are just now sharing this news. We were not sure if we wanted everyone to wait till delivery or not. And since our family members and a few friends knew, I didn’t want to keep my customers, readers and fans guessing any […]

The Belly & I

So, since a lot of people were asking to see my pregnant self, or a portrait of me belly, I decided to put this up. This is the best I can do. I’m a shy gal. Really! Also, I know in the past, I have ranted about my difficulty with this pregnancy. The all day […]

Traveling With The Little Ones

Traveling with kids can be such an adventure, and Greg and I being the adventurous ones are determined to not let this get in our way of travels. We love to visit different countries and our families and friends within the US. Though, people say that once you have kids that’s out the door, we […]

Preserving My Sexy

I keep getting questions via email and in the streets about what sort of make-up products I use, type of lotion for my skin or what my beauty/weight secrets are in general. Sometimes, I get people rubbing my face because they don’t believe the answer I give them, so I decided to just throw it […]

Where Are The Men At?

I know that I’m not the only guy who regularly reads Folake’s blog posts…though I apparently am the only one to chime in consistently. I know that there are a couple of other doods dropping comments, and some send personal notes to her inbox about how much they enjoy reading the blog, but I really […]

Mama, Baby In My Tummy

So, I’m trying to get Zurhi ready for the new baby. I feel bad because she is a baby herself, but she’ll thank me later because her dad and I are giving her a priceless gift. A sibling close in age to grow up with and be best friends. Though, I know before they consider […]

Mom, Dad, I Don’t Want to Come Home!

What is going on with my 15 month old? She doesn’t like to come home. LOL! Whenever we go out, or when Greg picks her up from daycare, it’s a scene when we get home. She cries, screams, throws a fit, claps (yes, she claps when she is furious…like WTF???) and then sits on the […]

Licking Poop

Prepare to be grossed out! So I may be alone on this, but you know when your kids have something on their face, food, dried out milk, dried out drool, you put your finger on your tongue and clean their face off….anyone? No? OK! Well, I do. I did it with Sidney until he figured […]

Three Baby Showers In One Weekend…Help!

Man, I had three baby showers to attend this weekend. I had two back-to-back on Saturday that ended at midnight, and one on Sunday quite early. Didn’t think I could make it to one, but you know, God worked his wonders and I did make it to all THREE.
I was so sure I wasn’t going […]

Ssssssshhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!

What I choose to blog about is nobody’s darn business. I have the right to use words that I see fit in a certain situation. My blogs are often filled with sarcasm, direct/indirect jokes and reality. I don’t blog for readers who take my blog with all seriousness. If it’s not of interest to you, […]

Pregnancy Aint Fun :)

I’m just being really, really, honest! I know some women, men, or children are going to give me a hard time for this, but you know what? I’ve gotta be real about how I feel!
I can’t stand being around women that say “oh, I can be pregnant forever,” “I wish pregnancy was longer than 10months,” […]

Mommy, but what about me?

Why is it ok for parents to rock true religions and the like…retailing at $300 (sometimes more, sometimes less) and you see their kid or kids next to them and their hair is unkept, their clothes are a mess, un-coordinated, mis-matched, torn, wrinkled and just plain busted? Why? That should be illegal Seriously, i’m not saying […]
