as a Philly native, i have a true love for soft pr as a Philly native, i have a true love for soft pretzels embedded in my DNA. 💜 they were everywhere; I LOVED soft pretzels with my cherry water ice— BUT you had to dip it in!! 😂🙌🏾

my favorite pretzel memory is going underground at BNO with my mom. we’d stand in line for our tokens, then make our way over to the counter where they sold chips, soda, and newspapers to get our pretzels. I always got a Snapple apple!!

my whole life I never thought I could find a better pretzel outside of my hometown … that is until I traveled to Europe. I remember becoming a pretzel lush on a quest to consume all the pretzels I could between Berlin & Zurich! lol I won’t say they were lightyears better but the pretzels sure did rival my treasured childhood snack. 

naturally we want our children to experience an ounce of our nostalgia even if they don’t understand. I pray my girl develops fond memories of twisting dough with her pretzel loving mommy, bc we’ve got auntie Anne’s at home 💜🥰

as a creative who wears all the hats, you have to as a creative who wears all the hats, you have to take actionable steps to embrace your duality. it doesn’t start/stop at the declaration “I’m embracing the process”… you’ve got to put forth the effort. 
send to a homie who needs to hear this! 💜🙌🏾

commission piece for the tiny one. watch until th commission piece for the tiny one. 
watch until the end for her genuine reaction! 🥹😘 of course, she's already told me what the next one should look like 🙃 

and btw, if you're wondering yes, i'm training a future jr chopped champion 💪🏾💜 #creativemomdiaries #thecolorduchess
so i'm in the space of defining my own family trad so i'm in the space of defining my own family traditions, alongside events that are a big deal in society but of zero significance to me. i didn't grow up celebrating Halloween, but my Nana did. and the only way i'd get a costume or go trick or treating is if i was at Nana's house. that was something my mom chose to be lenient about because she trusted my Nana would keep us safe. 

that being said, my child will not participate at all, with anyone, ever. i haven't that amount of trust in a single soul. 

as a mom, i believe in providing unbiased information about holidays to my offspring.. she's still young, and i'm very comfortable discussing the origins of rituals and symbols. so when i'm asked "why don't you celebrate XYZ holiday" my answer is simple. "that's not what we do."

PS. this farm experience left a lot to be desired. i checked before i pulled up, the reviews were great!! but i'm not people. 🙃
if I have a project to complete, then WE have a pr if I have a project to complete, then WE have a project to complete, ma’am! leave it up to me, you will never run out of things for to do!! 

introducing: colorful clip duty!🧵💜🙌🏾

I avenged myself from that botched oven mitt debac I avenged myself from that botched oven mitt debacle because, I was actual losing sleep about it. it has imperfections but it’s complete!‼️

it should NOT take multiple days to get this little thing done smh

anyways do consider this an entry in my #creativemom diary; I have found that immersing my girl in an analog activity has decreased her desire to meddle in my process.

even though I choose a plethora of programming i always love turning the TV off. she’s much more focused on her creativity than mine. 

THAT’s A WIN 🏆🎖️🙌🏾 

whether small or large, what’s a win you’re celebrating?
