here’s my cute lazy Saturday outfit. 💜 what y here’s my cute lazy Saturday outfit. 💜
what y’all doin today? 👀
the unpredictability of my schedule kept me from p the unpredictability of my schedule kept me from participating in @phillyveganrestaurantweek how i wanted to. but i did manage to skip on over to @chestnuthillbrewingcompany for my favorite vegetal apps 😋 
now, let me say, i've been getting this buffalo cauliflower for some years, but last night they were cooked like somebody's mom was trying to impress the high school football coach 😆💜
texture, taste, temperature ⭐️ X 🔟
If it don’t apply let it fly ♐️♐️♐️😈🙌🏾
you might play about your birthday, but I don’t play about mine. 😁
fellow sags, how we feel about this?

two things they won’t tell you: vegan is easier two things they won’t tell you: vegan is easier in the summer time, and it’s only easy when you don’t live in a food dessert!! 

don’t let people put the battery in your back to abruptly “go vegan”, you have to equip yourself with information and resources for how you gonna eat. 

you gotta be able to survive and sustain… and you deserve to enjoy good food!

for my planty folk, when did you discover your vegetal romance was over?
I’ve been putting off retwisting my hair, but I I’ve been putting off retwisting my hair, but I finally got to it. it took 4 hours one day, 6 hours the next. 
i had intentions to capture my whole process on camera and get some good content. 

but see, ol girl consistently kept bringing me pretend tea and running in and out for for potty time—which always entails a hand washing song… every.single.time. 

so my content vision went out the window, and this is what I got instead 😵‍💫😂 angles ain’t but so bad but it’s certainly not what i had in mind.

the old me would’ve scrapped ALL OF IT and waited for the “right” content moment: a perfect setup with uninterrupted time, and a semi-organized space.
but this past year taught me that this creative motherhood journey is not about waiting for perfect conditions. 
it’s all about building IN the chaos, not seeing what you can come up with after the smoke clears.
so y’all, I’m posting what I have instead of not posting at all… 

now if you’re a creative mom waiting for the “right time” to start - let this be your sign. 

the interrupted process IS the content.
done is better than perfect!!!
& sometimes, done means perfect. i’m oddly enjoying this unconventional spin on things, 🥴 
now let’s see where it takes us LOL

I can’t be the only one who is building something in the tiny margins between pretend tea parties and having real deadlines!
Somebody will say you can’t be a decent mom AND Somebody will say you can’t be a decent mom AND a successful creative, and you need to ignore them people!! Because first of all, you cannot take advice from people who have never done what you want to do. 

and the truth? 
the child learns so much MORE watching me build than she ever would watching me wait. 

I’m creating with her, but I’m building for us. 

That’s me 💜

if you’re a creative mom/ artist mom navigating this wild ride, I see you girl 💜🤗

my factory setting is to go into hiding, so believ my factory setting is to go into hiding, so believe me when I say, I did a VERY hard reset because honey this is life after I said NEVER WOULD I EVER! 😂 there’s some major changes round these purple parts.

and this chapter is all about IMPACT. 💜 
my intention is to continue sharing the vibrant hues that illuminate my purpose, my love, and fulfillment on this journey. 

this creative journey! so much going on this year and I’m excited to share 💜🥰
