AIN'T NO PARTY LIKE a GRITS and BISCUITS PARTY................

Greetings and Good Afternoon,


First of all how are you doing and how is your week going? Okay now I am a little late with this but it's better late than never right? Okay now May 25th me and my cousin journeyed out to Hollywood, CA and went to a Grits and Biscuits party held at the House of Blues Sunset.

What's a Grits and Biscuits Party? It's a big party basically, people come from all walks of live to come and get their party on. Nothing but southern rap is played all night. There is no dress code, in fact they tell you "ladies do NOT come in heels, do NOT come all dolled up because you are going to be twerking all night and you need to be comfortable.

I have heard about Grits and Biscuits probably the beginning of May, I knew they had 2 parties held in Brooklyn and I also knew Grits and Biscuits was an annual event. They have had parties in NYC, DC, North Carolina and now L.A and I believe their next stop is Chicago in July. So if you would like anymore information about Grits and Biscuits visit their site www.gritsandbiscuits.com and if they are ever in your hood go check them out guarantee you will have the time of your life. I know I did. Here are a few photos of our night.

sorry for the low quality pictures I was using my phone but you can get an idea of how packed it was.
And this was a little taste of my first Grits and Biscuits experience. I had a BALL and I will indeed  be attending again. I want to go to the next one they have in NYC I will have to see about that. But I will be going again when they come back to Cali. So comment and let me know if you have heard of a Grits and Biscuits party or if you know someone who has been to a G&B party of if you like to eat Gris and Biscuits....I know I do lol. Thanks in advance and have a lovely evening.

DIRTY 30........NYC

Greetings and Good Evening....

Well I am back yes I am back and I am 30.....yikes..... I took the liberty to spend my 30th birthday in my favorite place in the whole wide world NYC. Not only is NYC my favorite place it is kind of becoming my second home. I love it out there and I go as often as I can now. I love everything about it, the city, the people, the energy and of course the food :) well here are a few photos from my trip. I didn't take many because everything is going so fast and I just want to take in every moment I am there and sometimes I forget to take pictures...no bueno I know. But this is not my first time in NYC and damn sure won't be my last......

In a New York minute!!!

OKAY OKAY!!! as promised: pictures from my vacation....I know I am a little late, but better late than never right?
just an over view.
 


 


view of the Empire State building!!
wrote my name on the BK bridge, so you know it's real lol.



Over all it was so much fun... I was a little scared walking across the Brooklyn Bridge, but by the Grace of God I was able to conquer that fear! I had a blast in New York and in New Jersey. I am very thankful and grateful I was able to visit again. I hope to visit again real soon, ummm maybe in December, to see if I can stand the cold....so I can make that move one day. So I hope you enjoy my pictures, my camera is broking so all of the above were taken with my phone....not to bad. Enjoy your day and thank you in advance for taking the time to look a little into my life. God Bless!!
