Happy CHOOSEday!

Today I CHOOSE to embrace what I love rather than bash what I hate.

Regardless of your choice, I urge EVERYONE here to vote! Your vote is your voice. Not just in presidential elections but in every election. There is too much at stake in our communities to sit on the sidelines for us to choose not to participate in the electoral process.

Make not mistake about it, I am pro-Kamala! I'm not voting for VP Kamala Harris because she's a woman. I'm voting for her because I am a woman.

If you'd like some gear to show your support, head on over to my newest website, www.lyfestylebyday.com. If you don't see what you'd like, send me a message and let's make it happen.

Thank y'all for ALWAYS being so supportive.

Then this happened…

I went over to Mama nem’s house and helped peel sweet potatoes 🍠 and wash and season meat for tomorrow’s dinner. After I finished I asked, “Ma, you wanna ride and get a snow cone?”

Yeah.

“Go get your money.”

Well, that wasn’t nice.

“Do you want a snow cone?”

Well, go grab your wallet.

She comes out with a dub.

Let’s ride Clyde!

While riding we’re chopping it up and I asked her what happened to so-and-so?

Y’all this lady done said, “You know she ordered her a husband out the book?”

What you mean?

“You know how you can look in the book and order you a husband?”

😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳
Nahhhh, I’on know nothing about that.

Yall she was dead ssa serious! I done almost dry heaved laughing because she is still insisting that I know what she’s talmbout.

Ma’am, I do not!

She is unfiltered but I wouldn’t trade her for all the money in the world!

Wheweeeeee!

Y’all! What I prayed and fasted about was realized today. I didn’t tell anyone what I wrote during my preparation but I stayed focused! And bam, just with a simple return call, my prayers have been answered!

When you earnestly SEEK God, you will find Him!

My hair being cute is a bonus! 😜

Okay, good night!

Wellness Tip Wednesday

Put the Fork Down

Most of us live such busy lives that we hardly ever get to savor the food we eat. I know I’ve been guilty of that in the past more often than not.

Did you know that by simply putting your fork down between bites has some amazing benefits? My favorite is I never experience the “oh my goodness, I’m so full” effect after hurrying through a meal.

It takes about 20 minutes for the message to get from your stomach to your brain that there is enough food there. When you eat too fast, you pile on the calories before your body has a chance to tell you that you don't need them. Allow time to trigger the signal from your brain that you are full. And feeling full often translates into eating less, resulting in weight loss.

Try it and let me know how you feel! But don’t be surprised when others are annoyed saying, “You eat too slow.” Just let ‘em know you’re watching your weight… respectfully!

Until the next time…

❤️ Chef She-She
