My Relationship with Wine



So anyone who knows me- just knows if you ever want to see me smile bring me wine! The excitement I get over wine is crazy. Call it what you will, but a glass of wine can excite me, relax me, make me laugh, cry all at the same time. I call wine "Jesus Water" The Lord knew that he would create people like me who would appreciate his efforts of making different types of grapes and putting them to use until the very end. He knew that I would need something to call mine, something that would allow me to suffer through endless dates, calm my spirits, turn up to, collect my thoughts, natural sleep aid and so much more. Wine is everything.

I was at my local 24 hr Kroger and stumbled upon a new blend of one of my favorite blends.... introduced to me by him; "Menage a Trois" They have several blends from their Moscato and Chardonnay to their red blends of which they have a dark version known as (Midnight) and now a soft version called (Silk).

The anticipation I have right now to try this "Silk" is beyond words, but technically I am still on the clock- but oh when 9pm hit and I have my bowl of Smart Pop in my lap and netflix on! Nothing can come betwixt me and my wine. Sadly, I have broken my favorite wine glass of which could hold an entire bottle so I will have to limit myself to my regular wine glasses. Wine is sort of an outlet for me.. it is my breather.

Oh how I love it, it never disappoints or irritates. Wine has been good to me. Thank you wine- I love you and you have always loved me back even when I cheat with Watermelon Martini's I always come back to you dear wine. Thank you for always being there, for having so much variety and flavor, for calming my spirits, for comforting me, for giving me courage when I had none, for being my friend on both the high end and low, for being readily available and easily accessible.  Thank you Wine.

Catch me at Grapefest this weekend! #GrapevineTX

Taking Opportunities: It Takes A Man, Male Initiative Program, Inc.

This weekend I had the joy and honor of hosting the Launch Party for "ITM" Dallas. This initiative is a mentoring program geared towards young minority males to provide them with an outlet to be themselves and find their purpose in life. This program is not like others where I call you 1x week and maybe show up to a few games. It is about giving and receiving what you need to succeed.  The premise of the program is to not only mentor young men but for those same young men to then become mentors for a lifetime. The level of accountability is unsurpassed. As a mentee- I can mess up and maybe slack on my goals a little because someone (my mentor) is there to guide me, but once I become a mentor- someone else is now depending on me to be their guide and I now have a true empathy and understanding for their plight as a mentee- because I was there. It is genius. Consistency is the goal and we are committed to changing the world- 1 life at a time. Successful launch party on 10...

What are REFINED CARBS-?

REFINED CARBOHYDRATES AND PURIFIED SUGARS found this on the internet- at diagnosisdiet.com What are Refined Carbohydrates? It is actually easier to define which carbohydrates are NOT refined, because the term “refined” is very confusing. ALL sugars and starches, EXCEPT those that come in the form of a natural whole food like a piece of fruit, a Lima bean, or a sweet potato, are considered refined carbohydrates. If you are looking at a sweet or starchy whole food that you could come across exactly as is in nature, you are looking at an UNrefined carbohydrate. Refined carbohydrates are forms of sugars and starches that don’t exist in nature. They do come from natural whole foods, but they have been altered in some way by processing to “refine” them. Processing methods include industrial extraction, concentration, purification, and enzymatic transformation. It’s easy for most of us to identify sugars, because they taste sweet and usually come in the form of crystals, s...
