Life-Size Magic!

Hey Everyone! I hope y’all are doing wonderful!  HAPPY HAPPY TUESDAY!

Look what happened this weekend! *woot woot*

Well, when 4 local Memphis BLOGGER BABES collaborate to CREATE, you get nothing more than pure MAGIC and life-size FAIRY TALE!
A first-timer for me, splitting-off from my mental block (of meeting new people) and indulging in a “group” photography event – all decked up and feeling pretty – this was indeed an adventure to learn from, absorb and enjoy! *twirls n’ dances*
Here’s our take on “Disney-bounding” by adding our own little “modernized” and “contemporary” twist to the “routine” and breaking the Disney norms! (Boy, it was such a BLAST!)

Presenting to y’all our version of “SWEET N’ SPICY” DISNEY PRINCESSES for this weekend –

We All Grow At Different Rates And That’s OK!

Hey Everyone! Hope y’all are doing wonderful? I am back again with my FRIYAY motivation and some REAL TALK!

Folks, don’t you think that there are times when you read (see) something and it straight away pulls at your heart, evoking memories, arousing recollections – reminding you of your long forgotten chapters of life? Some random quotes, some accidental lines, and you are back again at the corridors of time and tide.

5 Powerful Affirmations for Happiness

Hey Everyone! Happy FRIYAY y’all!

It is Real Talk time! Well my people, it is a known fact that our happiness is determined by our attitude and our perspective towards life. Buddha said it best – “What you think you become. What you feel you attract. What you imagine you create.” Yes!!!! The key to abiding happiness lies within us – in our words, our thoughts and our point of view – and positive affirmations offer an ideal way in which to use your words positively, to create change in your life. Plus, who minds a little pampering and what’s better than self-induced happiness and readiness?

Here are five daily positive affirmations (that are my absolute favorites) to help you invite more joy, peace, happiness and love into your life –

Things To Do In Branson

Hey Everyone! It’s time for the much awaited “travelling updates” and stories of my recent voyaging! Hope you all are as excited about it, as me?

Well, finally the “dry travelling spell” broke! Thanks to the weather Gods, and the extended Labor Day weekend, we were able to spread our wings and go for the much-anticipated holiday to Branson, Missouri. The best part, we even had some company along – a “couple” friend of ours, who took the chance of exploring the city with “crazy-adrenaline-junkies” like us! *woot woot*

Branson, a popular destination for vacationers from all across the US, named after Reuben Branson, a postmaster and an operator of a general store in the area in the 1880s – is a “small-little” town with exceptionally world-class pleasure and merriment possibilities. With the collection of entertainment theaters along 76 Country Boulevard, including Dolly Parton’s Stampede, Branson’s popularity as a tourist destination has grown manifold by the years. It is indeed a vibrant city which is refreshingly unique in its own ways, offering something for everyone!
From numerous entertainment theaters to local attractions like – Hollywood Wax Museum BransonSilver Dollar CityWhite WaterMount Pleasant WineryCurling Vine WineryRide the Ducks, zip-lines, cave tours, go-karts, mini golf; and  locally owned restaurants serving scrumptious food – BRANSON is a perfect little place to spend some harmonious “family time!”

Ah, the last two weeks have been amazingly rhapsodic; and even though I’ve had the BEST time of my life, it does feel good to be back home!
Can’t wait to share with y’all my “Travel Shenanigans” and “Photographic Memoirs of the NORTH!” *exciting*

Summer Break 2019

Hey everyone! HAPPY FRIYAY y’all!

Guess what folks! It’s VACATION TIME! Well, finally the “dry travelling spell” has broken and we are off for some FUN! *woot woot*

Keeping in mind that my presence on blogosphere will be sporadic and I will not be able to post anything for a couple of days (since I am famous for NOT scheduling my work), this post is just to let you all know that I shall be back soon to do the “regular bingeing and commenting!”

Please do not give up on me and keep that LOVE coming! (I promise, I’ll have lots of stories to tell and pictures to share once I’m back!) Also, any guess on where we are headed to? *wink wink*

Sending Out A SOS!

Hey Everyone! Hope you all are doing well? Well, things aren’t as rosy this side! *sad face*

I was supposed to write a post that talked about my recent face-off with the “AToZ Challenge 2019” – ponder upon the ups and downs of it, remark on what an amazing experience it was and THANK y’all for being so supportive and encouraging! But instead, here I’m (literally in tears) sending out a SOS!

It seems like I have “unintentionally” without any clue and knowledge UN-FOLLOWED many of you! All thanks to WORSTPRESS! Trust me y’all, if I was following you, there had to be a valid reason for it (coz I really like what you do/write!), and I just wouldn’t un-follow you out of the blue, and no reasons!

What I fail to understand is WHY? Why would WP think that it’s OK to delete me as a follower from your blog? Did I do anything wrong? *bawling my eyes out*

Crawfish Boil

Hey everyone! How’s ya mama an’ them? (As you can make out I am already in my “Cajun” ensemble, saying what the Cajun’s say and that’s just a Southern Salute!)

What do you when the sun shines for two consecutive days for the first time since January 1st? Well, you put on your “party hats” and feel lucky that you’ve got an exclusive invite to your boss’s “Craw-fish Boil” event! Ah, free food and heaps of fun! *woot-woot*

For the ones who don’t know what a “Craw-fish Boil” is (and are finding me a little more excited than I should be) – It is a social “messy” affair which absolutely has nothing to do with virtuously sitting down at a table with sophisticated silverware, awaiting your first course on a silver platter! Well, in all honesty, it is more about getting your hands dirty and “wriggling” into the tastefulness of the succulent crustaceans by the pounds! (Ha! Talk about healthy living!)

Foooood!

Undoubtedly, nothing else symbolizes the Cajun (a member of any of the largely self-contained communities in the bayou areas of southern Louisiana formed by descendants of French Canadians, speaking an archaic form of French) culture of Louisiana like the craw-fish. Considered a Louisiana delicacy, the craw-fish (aka crayfish) resemble tiny lobsters – only much tender, juicier and flavorsome! (Yum!)
Also called the “mud-bugs” since they live in the mud of freshwater bayous, the craw-fish are “springtime staple” and the heart and soul of Louisiana’s long-established food industry.
