Whenever I’m invited to a dinner and asked to bring a dish, my go-to is typically a dellicious salad. Salads tend to be forgotten on the menu and I have no problem adding them to the table. Typically, when making a salad, we toss them in a bowl and they sometimes get forgotten. Well, this particular salad is guaranateed to impress your guest at your next dinner party. I found this recipe here and wanted to try it myself. I love finiding recipes and making them my own and I encourage you all to do the same. I think I’ll…

The truth of the matter is, I’m not here to encourage or influence over consumption. I believe in only purchasing what you actually need, in most cases. 🙂 I’ve been working on creating a wardrobe that can last the test of time and eventually will only require new purchases to replace items that need to be replaced. I recently donated a TON of shoes to a Urban University, a local organization that helps to educate, empower, and seve single mothers and their families. I highly encourage you to read more about who they are and what they do. With that…

Do you have a signature scent? Does that scent change depending on the season? Well, mine does. I rotate a few during the warmer months, depending on my mood. The Jo Malone and Bond No. 9 scent has been in my rotation for years. I oftentimes wear the Jo Malone Peony and Blush suede to bed because it’s so soft. This Vanilla Musk is a shocker to me! I absolutely loathe all things vanilla but I was influenced to purchase this Vanilla Milk perfume. I ended up buying the sample size in case I needed to trash it, but I…

Tacos are one of my weaknesses. One of the things I like the most about a taco is it’s versatility. You can honestly use any protein you want, top it with avocado and call it a wrap! No pun intended. My most recent taco obsession is the roasted sweet potato taco. It’s quick, filling, flavorful, and doesn’t require a ton of ingredients. INGREDIENTS: INSTRUCTIONS: If you try it out, please let me know! xoxo,Starr

Twenty four books read is my 2024 reading challenge goal. In 2022, I read 17 books, surpassing my goal of 12. In 2023, I didn’t come close to my goal of 24 total read books, at only 13. Last month, I decided to push myself and be very intentional on not only hitting my goal of 24 books, but beating the goal by adding one additional book per month! That’s a lot of math, I know, but the point is, I’m hoping to beat my goal, and if I continue on this path, I will definitely do that! I’m still…

Who remember the days of being awaken at 7am on Saturday mornings to Luther Vandross blasting from the speakers and your mom busting in your room with a broom and mop in hand?? Saturday mornings were dsignated to cleaning the ENTIRE house before you even thought of going outside to play. For years into adulthood, I followed that same recipe until I realized that I was wasting my Saturdays with tasks that I can easily knock out during the week. When I could be out enjoying my day or sleeping in and catching up on SVU, I was spending hours…
