I keep reading this as "Five Breast Umbrella's". What is wrong with me?!?!

Fellow mid 30-somethinger.. I just realized this year that tilting my chin down makes my dark circles look worse. So now, I tilt upwards and a bit to the side. Looks much better!

GTFOH! Would you like to meet me outside after school for your beat down? Drew is a Saint.

Perfect casting ♦ Perfect director ♦ True story of an amazing woman ♦ This is just everything.

I actually fell in love with Whitney while watching this show. She's is a sweet soul with a big personality. I don't think that big idiot deserves her at all. However, she really just wants a family to love. I have a feeling that his family will make her feel welcomed and loved. Not sure that she will be satisfied in…

Consider that her intentions weren't intentionally dodgy, but a type of self-preservation. From my observations, Hilary doesn't trust anyone after her experiences in the White House and with the media. Government technology is notoriously antiquated. Add Snowden and the NSA to the mix and I'd be wary as well. Hilary…

Really, I don't blame her for being cautious. Government email servers are probably the last place I'd trust to secure sensitive information. The furor and outrage the media is displaying at not having access to all of Hilary's work emails is pretty telling.

You just made me remember a night when my cousins and I broke the Catholic church's wooden fence while trying to climb over it and hide, after sneaking out to attend a party. We were running from some older guys that followed us in their car after the party. I'm certain that they wanted to do more than just talk. I…

I need this recipe. She looks so relaxed and happy. Loving this cover!

Ledisi is truly an exceptional vocal talent. She is owning a song sung by the one and only Mahalia Jackson. I wish she would have gotten an opportunity to sing it at the grammys. However, Beyonce doesn't have to let her light shine any less. I think the byproduct of this discussion will introduce Ledisi to fans…

When I started college and even working my first corporate job, I used to envy the white girls for their seemingly nonchalant attitude about life and work. They just seemed so free, uninhibited and fun. I so desperately wanted to feel that carefree. Don't get me wrong, I have felt that way a few times in life.…

Your story just brought back ugly memories of me being treated unfairly for years. There was one incident in particular when I was accused of cheating on an essay in my English class. This was my senior year in high school. I was the only Black girl in the class and I chose this teacher and this particular class…

I know, right?! I'm surprised by this too.

We must live in the same area. I'm the brown-stick-around girl. The skin worship is so tragic and sick. I used to hear the most racist, sexist garbage from Black men before I perfected my BRF. I also receive lots of unsolicited hair advice. It's shocking how pathetic some of these men behave. This is the legacy that…

I see what you've done here. It still make me a bit squeamish. I know your writing and I see what you're doing. Unfortunately, I foresee a swift army full of white tears coming your way. I hope they leave little sweet Rue out of it this time.

Shoshana has always come across as so dignified and poised. It's amazing.

This is a perfect anecdote. I grew up with kids like this. They were just lost and confused and would do anything to fit in. I'm sure it's some sort of coping mechanism. They were often more rude and nasty then the crazy racist white kids.

Wow, this is really depressing. So sad how young these children are when they learn to hate and fear others. The first time I heard that word was from a little white boy who was in the first grade. I was 10 and it was my first time in a majority white school. I was so confused. My Mom had to give me a crash course…

People like you and your kids are the only reason I smiled while reading this terrible article. It's unimaginable to me that someone can be so thoughtless and dislike kids because they are poor or not from your neighborhood. Just wow.

This trailer was so unexpected and real and funny in a good way. I love good writing.
