*looks at my post title* DANG Luvvie! Don’t hold back. Say how you REALLY feel. But really. I mean it. There’s a time when it is confirmed to me that TV will never regain good quality programming. And last night was such a time. Mind you, I’m a fan and avid watcher of bad TV. [...]

Now y’all KNOW my love of Adele. It was well-documented in the post I wrote a coupla weeks ago titled “Why I LOVE Adele.” Apparently, I ain’t the only one who thoroughly enjoys that plump Brit with a voice touched the the Lord! 98 comments and counting! One of my FAVE Adele songs is “Rolling [...]

So Gawker talked about this article that came out about some dude who considers himself an expert on things for smart people. Stuff like cultural anthropology. Or a Jeff Foxworthy standup routine. You know? Things that us regular folks scratch our heads at. Anywho, the dude goes on to say how he realized that airplanes [...]

LAWD so I was reading MissJia’s blog when I saw this picture she posted under “Hot Shit NOT found here.” I immediately *face palmed* though. Wait a minute. This grown man REALLY got a tattoo of “Ladies Love It” on his upper lip. But sir… ladies love what??? He’s sitting here with THREE tattoos on [...]

My people! Guess what??? Two of my blogs are finalists in the 2011 Black Weblog Awards! Not one. But TWO! *does cartwheels* First, AwesomelyLuvvie.com is a finalist in the “Best Humor Blog” category for the third year in a row. I won the popular vote in 2009. And then last year, Very Smart Brothas and [...]

She helped raise me. I grew up in her house. We didn’t just see her on holidays. She was ALWAYS there. In our family house. Granny would pick us up from school almost everyday. People remember her because she was an ever-present force in all our lives. My cousins would spend holidays over at Granny’s [...]

I’m dealing with the loss of my grandmother, who was the matriarch of my very close-knit family. For me, it’s important to grieve, but also very important to be there for my mom, siblings, aunts, uncles and cousins. But MY process of grief is odd. I need to be distracted from the situation at hand. [...]

I was doing what I does when I does it (read: nothing) when I stumbled upon the picture below. I blame Thembi for this. No that is not a mannequin. That is a grown man with tattooed cornrows. *blinks twice* I have many questions and not enough answers. Is this what we’ve come to as [...]

So when Osama-Gate happened, the White House released pictures of the situation room, as President Barack Obama and his senior staff sat and watched what folks assume to be the live feed of the raid in Pakistan. They’re been mum on what was going on at the exact time the picture happened. But the pic [...]

My love affair with Adele began later than everyone else’s because, well, I’m always tardy for the party. First time I saw her was son some awards show last year singing “Chasing Pavements.” I was all “Who is this? She’s kinda tight.” But she fell off my radar for a bit because I don’t listen [...]

As some of you are aware, I am obsessed with all things rice and red velvet. Last year when I found out about the existence of RED VELVET FRIED CHICKEN (yes, I hollered when I typed that), I did all types of drops and twirls. And started a mission to get some in my lifespace. [...]
