Why You Should Avoid This Popular Restaurant for Brunch Because it’s Not Good

white ceramic bowl with food

If you follow my Tik Tok you will know that I am a foodie. I love going to different restaurants, bars, and places where ever I am but especially when I am home in Nashville. If you don’t know by now, my favorite meal of the day is brunch. Brunch is the perfect meal for adults because breakfast is too early for the weekend and lunch is too boring. You have never heard someone say, “let’s meet for lunch” on a Saturday or Sunday because it’s lame and for the weekdays. Brunch comes with options for breakfast, options of lunch, drinks, fashion and the most important part being social. Is there any meal better than brunch? Brunch is for the baddies, the hungover, the social, and the foodies. The last thing I love about brunch is that it is completely hard to be bad at making brunch. The worst of…

This is my mother’s hot apple cider recipe, with my own spin on it. Here is another recipe that my mother makes every year. If you liked the Eggnog you will also like this recipe. his drink is usually made in a large batch and non-alcoholic. She typically makes this drink in a drink chafer (I think that is what it’s called). From my family to yours, enjoy! This recipe is a guestimation as my mother said she just guesses and makes this cider to taste. I implore you to take your time and find the taste and alcohol strength of your own desire.

Universe has a Unique Way of Finding Equilibrium

Belmont University Legacy Said So

Would you believe me if I told you that I was not supposed to be here? Would you believe that in high school, I consciously decided not to apply to Belmont even though it was the best choice? Maybe, but what if I told you that it was for none of the reasons you may be thinking? From a very young age, I was provided with all the things I needed to be successful, specifically, I was taught to be proud of my heritage and that I was Black. All the things I was taught influenced my choices then and have continued to influence them. Yet, the course of my adult life took a very unexpected route. That route changed the course of everything in my life and it was the most valuable to shaping me become the person I am today. Although I am grateful for this journey, I…

WikiBuy is the GOAT

If you don’t already know, I love a good deal and I especially love an opportunity to make or save some money while I shop. A lot of places are doing cashback on shopping without having a credit card and I LOVE IT. Unfortunately, I bank with Wells Fargo, and we can get into that another time but they have even offered cash back when I shop at certain stores such as Starbucks or even Ulta. But, this is not about Wells Fargo and their cashback, this is about the goat, WikiBuy. My guilty pleasure in the morning is to watch Youtube videos about all kinds of things, science, health, wellness, finance, music, and more. Youtube kept running this ad about WikiBuy, I mean it was on a good chunk of the videos I would watch. So I decided to look into WikiBuy to see what it was. Typically, I…

Digit App, Save Money Easy

Save Money the Easy Way, Don’t Lift a Finger with Digit One of my all time favorite money apps is Digit. Digit has a dope algorithm that monitors your spending and takes money you wouldn’t notice and places it in a FDIC insured account. So basically, you are saving without actually having to save. HOW DOPE!! Additionally, Digit tells you exactly how much you have in your linked account everyday for me it’s around 9 a.m. You hardly ever have to log into the app as Digit can communicate to you thru text. Right now, I dont have the Digit app on my phone. You can sign up and communicate with Digit via text. You can simply send a text with key words or emojis. For instance, if you send the umbrella with raindrops emoji, it will tell you how much you have saved in your Digit account. I put…
