I met Dr. Oz when I was a producer at The Oprah Winfrey Show (a lifetime ago). He was this uber smart doctor who got the “Queen of Talk” to chat about poop and farting. His popularity soared and his own TV show, The Dr. Oz Show was born. And starting this Fall a new […]

This review was made possible by Double Duty Divas and Cascade. I was provided the featured product free of charge to facilitate my review, but all opinions are 100% mine. “Cascade Platinum delivers Cascade’s ultimate clean for dishes.” That’s the line I got from my friends at Double Duty Divas when they asked me to try it […]

Did you know National Shake Month is September? My friends at Johnny Rocket’s hipped me to this fact and I thank them profusely.

[VIDEO] Oprah, Steven Spielberg collaborate on “The Hundred-Foot Journey” hitting theaters Aug. 8

Atlanta’s newest shopping district: Emory Point
I’m trying to look hip. I had the pleasure of being invited over to the other side of 285 to check out one of Atlanta’s newest Live-Work-Play neighborhoods, Emory Point. I received some coupons and gift cards (and yummy food) from the vendors there but of course that doesn’t influence my opinion at all. Honestly, […]

My friends at Hood sent me some coupons for Hood milk so I could taste their product for myself. My opinions weren’t swayed but more than one cookie was dunked in the process of this review. Hood, one of the largest branded dairy operators in the US has been around since 1846. But it took […]
Mangia Italiano for National Italian Heritage Month
Disclosure: I received free Michael Angelo’s products to review for this post. Not having to pay for them didn’t sway my opinions. I bet you didn’t you know October is National Italian Heritage month. Furthermore, I bet you didn’t know I come from an Italian-American family. Yup. Don’t let my curly hair, brown skin, and […]
