What is social distancing?
Social distancing, or physical distancing, is a set of non-pharmaceutical interventions or measures taken to prevent the spread of a contagious disease by maintaining a physical distance between people and reducing the number of times people come into close contact with each other.

Are we really doing this though, I beg to differ we are still hanging out and doing things that are not essential to our lives. We are still going to restaurants, there is a chance that front lines workers can be affected too. They have to work to accommodate us but we are a huge threat to them because we won't stay at home. The only way to bring this Corona-virus to its knees is to stay home, so it will have no place to go but die out, stay home.

Hey, I went to see Harriet the movie about a week ago and I really enjoyed it. However, I began watching some reviews about the film and I was very disappointed. Many of the reviews called the movie trash or very far from the truth. So this is my perception of the film, Harriet was outstanding! I felt that it was cast perfectly, directed great and had good historical reference.
I have a problem with us as a society expecting to continue in this same racial cycle. Especially Black people we want to move forward and want others to treat us different but we get mad when books, music or movies don't continue to show the demon that was slavery. I'm in no way trying to minimize slavery but how many movies do we need to watch about beatings, raping and lynching to know what our people went through.
Yes, I feel that Harriet had enough slave reference, the movie showed balance which is what we need. We are in a climate right now where there is so much racial tension that we need to stop trying to be a victim because we have overcome so much, yes we have a long way to go but victory is near.

Hey, I was sent Hourglass products from Influencer for review, and was so excited. I was a bit nervous because it is so hard to match my skin tone because I am a dark girl, but love it! I received Vanish foundation in the color,
Walnut with a Vanish finishing brush, I loved it! The foundation went on really well, had great coverage and I love that the brush fits really nicely in the hand. I will certainly purchase some Hourglass Vanish products.

Hey, my first picture is my road to recovery from Bell's Palsy, and as you see I am getting better, thank God. Okay, have you every just bought something that you loved, and before you realized it you've worn it several times. This blouse that I purchased from It Fashion Metro clearly is one of those "somethings". I just love the pattern of the blouse, the big ruffles of the blouse and the huge bow that you can tie on the blouse. What is it about your favorite "something" that you can't get enough of wearing or using? This blouse is my something for the moment, my confidence and comfort. Sometimes, we need "something" to give us a pick me up or an upgrade so I am really enjoying my something, enjoy yours:)

I took a overnight trip to New Orleans, LA with my family over the weekend and we had a blast. We walked down Bourbon Street, and ate... and ate. It would not be a trip to New Orleans if we didn't go to Acme Oyster House.
This restaurant is awesome, every time I've went there it's always a line down the street with the wait not being no less than 30 minutes.
About Acme:
Over thirty years later, an Acme Oyster House can be found across the Gulf South. Hungry patrons flock to Acme from all corners of the world to eat, laugh and love with us over an authentic New Orleans seafood meal.
