Tacos for the weekend

Yes I know, I know. Where have I been. What can I say except it has been a lonnnnnggg year already. But this post is about some tacos I made this weekend. OMgosh. They were so tasty.


So the other day I decided to make tacos with sirloin steak. This to me was something totally new, but how different could it taste with steak instead of chicken.
It came out pretty well as you can see from the picture. I used beef sirloin boneless steaks about four. That I marinated with different seasonings just for taste. Of course the usual diced onions and peppers were added later after the steak was cooked to my desire. While I waited though, I did prepare my toppings such as diced toms and shredded letts. I also used shredded cheddar cheese and sour cream. I plated my wonderful tortillas; add my different layers one at a time.
Melted cheese, steak w/cooked onions and peppers, toms and letts, and lastly my fave sour cream. The only thing I was missing was something spicy. I love spicy foods so much sometimes. Next time I’ll make some homemade spicy salsa and see how that turns out.
Well until next time.

Sry: denim week continues

So because I have been such a slacker lately ( although it is not my fault at all). I have actually been trying my best to find a way to make some postings for you all if not for personal reasons or life issues of the week. But also for fashion tips and clothing styles of the weeks. So below I will post the remaining denim trends of the week.

Denim Vest

Why not cut the sleeves of your fave vintage denim jacket to sport this look for the summer. Sure you go to the store and purchase a brand new denim vest, or you can go Salvation Army or any thrift store and cut the sleeves off. To make it more funkier purchase some embellishments. There are tons of places like Micheals or even in the NYC garment district area that sells embellishments.

Boyfriend Jeans

I have so many BF style jeans in my wardrobe it's crazy. You can take some of your BF's jeans and wear them cuffed at the ankle like the above photo. Or you can go to any Thrift store or men's section at Forever 21 to find a cute pair.

Denim Dress


I have yet to find a denim dress I love. But HM and Forever 21 has some really great selections available for the summer.

Hope you all enjoyed this weeks denim looks. Next week is mixing tribal patterns.
Stay blessed

Cravings to blog? Tragic week!

Hello all my readers out there in blogger land. Where have I been I know I know. It has been a long time. I still have no internet and can only post through wi-fi connections in my neighborhood. The last time I was going to post I had a tragedy happen in my life. So therefore I was unable to post my MJ Tribute stuff from Saturday. My mother and I went to Harlem and they only had a dag on poster with some flowers. I tell ya, when folk pass away they really do for forget about cha. So she and I just walked around a bit and I recorded a little bit of a flea market in Herald Square. Monday was the worst day of my life really. I had to put my dog down because she was so sick. For those of you who own animals you understand how hard it is to lose them. Esp when you have no control over the situation. My other doggy has been so sad since Sandy has left. She keeps on looking at the door like is she coming back. Every little thing reminds my dad and I of her. Like going to the grocery store pet aisle or even a pet store. It's just very hard on us.
You ever feel like well damn if it isn't one thing it is another. That is how I was beginning to feel at first til I snapped out of it and thought God has a plan for everything. For now I have been trying to keep as busy as I possibly can. Cleaning, cooking, anything to take my mind off of losing Sandy, among other things that are going on.
So where does that leave my blog?? Don't give up on me yet people. I will return as soon as I am able to post things I want. It is hard to get a connection as well as it takes forever at times to post photos and other things. Ladies and Gentlemen, I will NEVER ever leave my blog. Posting things and blogging has become part of my life and a part of my therapy. Knowing that people read my blog is the most amazing feel ever. And even when people stop reading, just being able to vent or share things is awesome as well.
Please continue to live and breathe in the blessing.
Talk soon!!

My Sandy. I miss you baby :*
