2018 RECAP: How It Went Down

Image
Needless to say, 2018 went by pretty fast but not without leaving us (or should I say ME) changed. The year started rather slowly and it took ''ages'' before January came to an end. Just like every other year, I had dreams, goals, visions and it was going to be a really good year I told myself. My plans were written boldly so I  would be reminded of it daily.  February came and I birthed my new babies: The Assistants By Kender (TAK) and Get Fit With Kender (GFK). My two babies were doing great and an additional arm of the Kender brand made me so happy and I worked relentlessly into making each of 'em grow.  March was terribly trying. I got so ill that I feared I may not survive it. If you stay alone, sometimes you get really scared of getting sick cause no one would take care of you especially at night. That being my case, I didn't want to compound issues by telling my parents because I didn't want them worried. Most part of March was spent ge

The literary world is evolving by the day and it's a struggle to keep up. You pick a book off the shelf and the next day another is termed best seller and you just have to read.

Great Tips On How To Enjoy The Holidays.

Image
It's the holiday season and you'll know its really exciting and its so easy to be caught up in all the busy schedules. Office parties, kids school parties, family get togethers, Christmas shows etc. It can be so overwhelming that we may actually not enjoy the holiday. So here are my 5 thoughtfully organized tips in no particular order on how to enjoy the holiday. ♧ Be intentionally thankful Being alive isn't just enough to be grateful however, recognizing family and friends around is another reason to be grateful.  I like to see intentional gratitude as something to be harnessed as that breeds happiness and joy in our lives. So make sure to be intentionally grateful for every detail around you. ♧ Prioritize your parties You must not attend every party. Actually be at parties you would really have a great time at and not because you are supposed to. Its also nice to have some rest. ♧ Put your phones away. Everyone is almost always on their phones

Five Essential Oils That Are Must Haves

Image
I discovered the wonders of essential oils years back and ever since then I've not let go. Essential oils are highly concentrated volatile plant extracts obtained through different extraction methods. They are mostly used in aromatherapy or either rubbed on the skin for skin care. In all the goodness of essential oils, some are photo-toxic. This means they should not be used  more than 0.5 percent on the skin that is  exposed to any amount of sunlight. Examples include lime oil, lemon oil and bergamot oil. These ones I'm reviewing right here are completely good for skin and hair and are not photo-toxic. 1) Argan oil This right here is my favourite. Its so great for the skin and hair. Its gotten from the Moroccan Argan tree and the triterpenoids naturally found in it offers great health benefits from treatment of acne to improving hair colour and volume. Its been also found to fade age spots. I could go on and on the benefits of this oil. So guys, research more and

                                           EP 3 Sprawled up in bed and reminiscing over yesterday’s date and checking my phone at intervals. He should have called or sent a text message by now. He was so apt yesterday, I thought aloud.  He smiled and waved at me once he saw me walking into the restaurant. It then occurred to me that he had seen a picture of me prior to the meeting and I hadn't. I should have, but I wanted to be surprised and I was. He looked clean and well put together. His blue silk shirt was opened at the neck, giving him a jaunty look. The shoulders were wide and arms looking very powerful. He looked really big and utterly masculine, like he spends a lot of time at the gym. Thank God for the waiter who distracted me and stopped me from making a fool out of myself. I was drooling. ‘’He should be the one looking at me lustfully and I’ll be acting all sanctimonious like I didn't enjoy it. But the reverse is the case here’’, I kept thin

                                                       EP 2 I was totally stoned last night. Events that happened at the club were beginning to come back in flashes and my memory was becoming more vivid as I battled hangover with a glass of warm milk at work. It’s pretty obvious she had a ‘bang’ last night to usher in her big thirty, was in quote what I heard at the ladies’ room. ‘She’s all loose now and desperate to find herself a man, too late if you ask me said Virginia the office assistant. Those words didn't bother me as I still battled to remember the bizarre actions that took place last night. I may or may not have slept with a total stranger last night. I still tried hard to convince myself it didn't actually happen at the back seat of his car, and I wasn't wearing my famous black pant that is not so black any more as its been washed and ironed severally or the fact that I used a protection was very slim. Gosh! Virginia was correct, I'm so l

Twelve (12) Thoughtful Christmas Gift For Him/Her

Image
Hey guys, its Christmas again and its a perfect time of the year. I super love Christmas just because it has all the things I love encompassed in it. The lovely time shared with family, colourful decorations, amazing food, nice weather and of course the remembrance of the birth of Christ (which by the way is the best birthday ever). That being said, its the best time to also share gifts with loved ones. So here are my 12 thoughtful gifts for either him or her. 1) 2019 Diary A diary is very thoughtful. We need to make plans for the new year and a diary is just a handy pad to do that on. 2) Good old bottle of wine What are celebrations without a bottle of wine or whisky or even rum. Any good drink will always be a perfect gift. Just find out your partner's taste and surprise him/her to it. 3) Perfume Smell good, feel good. A bottle of perfume never goes out of style even for a Christmas gift. He/She will have you in mind everything some o
