Day1 of 14Day Vegetarian Challenge


Hey Guys!

My 14 Day No Meat Vegetarian Challenge has begun! Excited mucho mucho! Lol! I am also excited that a good number of ladies and gents have decided to do this challenge with me. Now I don't feel alone. Also, Maggi from CluelessCurl have joined me on this challenge and we will both be documenting the challenge and supporting each other. Please go check out her blog. She is such a positive person, Eco-lover and tries to live clean with every passing day. 

So, yesterday February 1st was day 1 of the challenge. I woke up and reminded myself that this is not just a challenge but a change in lifestyle. I hope this challenge will allow me to fall in love with more earthy foods and improve the health of my household. Yes people......the Fiancé is supporting the challenge and also excited to see how it will affect his health. He is much better at making smoothies than I can so he is the official Smoothie Master in this challenge. 

So here is a break down of what I ate yesterday:

Breakfast 

I wasn't that hungry so I had a banana and orange and drank some black tea that I got from Teavana. 


Brunch
My friends Krista and Yana took my fiancé and I out for brunch at a Jamaican spot in Soho to celebrate our engagement. 

I went back to my Jamaican roots and ordered the Jamaican Breakfast: Ackee, callaloo, plantains and festival. Yummy! Now I miss my mommy's cooking. 


Dinner
For Dinner I took over.  I loved it. No meat but still taste good and filling.

I made a lovely dinner of couscous, steamed cabbage with sweet onions, fried ripe plantains and freshly sliced cucumber. Served with a glass of lemon water.


What did you eat today? Share with us. 

See you tomorrow. Let's learn and grow together.

DIY Moisturizing Spray For Locs And Natural Hair

Since I loc’d my hair last year November, creamy moisturizers have been a thing of the past. Anything creamy is the devil to locs because it causes buildup and can even grow mold in the loc (yuck!). So liquid everything has been my choice for hair products. I have been experimenting with natural ingredients to build a moisturizer that WORKS. I wanted a product that left my hair moist and not just for a hot second. I wanted it seal in the moisture and offer shine to my locs, my scalp and my loose natural roots (a few inches). I apply this moisturizing spray to my entire locs and squeeze it into my loc. for my scalp (when retwist not fresh) I spray liberally to my scalp and give my self a soothing scalp massage. My hair and locs love it. This formula would work wonders for loose natural hair as well (it's not just for locs). Below is what I use in my spray and I love it. In a 8oz bottle i add the following: 1/2 bottle rose water Mixture of your favorite base oils or you c...

INTERLOCKING ROTATION | 2 Point vs 4 Point Rotation On Locs Hi Loves, I always get asked about how do I interlock my locs and the rotation I used - whether its 2-point or 4-point rotation. Some people also use the term 2-way or 4-way rotation. In the video below, I illustrate on my own locs, the difference between the two methods. you can then compare for yourself, if there is a difference between the two by looking at my locs. Do you interlock your locs? Share below which rotation do you use?
