Queen's Homemade Macaroni Salad

9.06.2021


What's going on y'all, it's been a break to long that I've posted on my blog. 
I know I know! 
I can see now all the hand gestures of
disappointment through the computer screen because it's been that long.

Growing up Macaroni salad was on the table along with potato salad and grilled corn. It's not one of my favorites but my children happen to absolutely love my homemade smack your momma anything haha.

Happy Labor day by the way! 
Posting more food recipes is going to be a must before I publish my very own cookbook !

The secret is out....

Amongst fashion and working on my athleisure clothing line, I'm tackling any and everything that I wanna do that's exciting and fun in my life. 

                  Queen's 
    Southern Macaroni Salad 

An easy Southern Macaroni Salad is the perfect make-ahead side dish for your next potluck, cookout, or family gathering.


Ingredients 
  • Macaroni
  • Miracle Whip
  • Hellmans Mayonnaise 
  • Yellow Onion
  • Sweet bell pepper 
  • Red peppers
  • Hard boiled eggs
  • Paprika
  • Boil the pasta; drain and rinse with cold water. Set aside.
  • Chop the veggies while the pasta cooks.
  • Whisk together the Macaroni Salad Dressing with both mayonnaise, peppers, onions and your choice of seasonings. 
  • Add in your Tuna and fold in
  • This is my favorite part!!!! Add in your diced boiled egg and fold them bad boys in 
  • It looks and smells amazing at this point!!! 
  • Let's add our final yummy seasonings. 
  • You don't have to but I used: Pepper.Creole seasoning and Garlic.
  • Now Finally Give This Dish A Toss the yummy pasta, eggs and dressing. Cover and chill.
  • Give your salad plenty of time to chill before serving. It's a great dish, because it just gets better as it sits for a few hours and the flavors come together.
  • Now if your macaroni salad looks dry or needs more tuna, it's probably because the pasta has absorbed a lot of the dressing. Just stir in a extra mayonnaise and tuna right before serving, if necessary.
  • I am truly hoping that you enjoy my homemade macaroni salad recipe as much as my family does. It's the dope pasta salad.

25 Reasons to Love Cancers in your life

8.02.2020

 CRABBY BITCH but who Cares ♡


1. I love that, “I feel”. Feelings count more than thoughts, or logic, or even the evidence of reality. 


2. I love that I’m a “soothing lover.” (Courtesy of @Sextrology)

3. Cancers are ruled by the moon and feel most serene at night.

4. I have a caring and sympathetic personality. I can actually feel your pain, be it emotional, physical, or financial. It’s no wonder that as a Cancer I am considered as one of the most caring people of the world.

5. I have a direct and forceful personality. With a personality like that it is in my nature to be innovative and I will burn the midnight oil to make any of my ventures successful.

6. It’s not wrong to say that Cancerians exhibit dual nature. One is the soft side that is for their family and social network. The other is the hard side that can make them quite self-centered and forceful. For their loved ones, they are quite protective and defensive.


7. Cancers can be shrewd and creative, with a sharp perception power.

8. Cancer’s minds are analytical. Thus, we make the best students with our ability to grasp almost anything that we are determined to do.

9. Like the crab we may seem hard on the outside.  But, inside we are soft and pink.

10. We suffer in silence and don’t want to bog others down with our trivial issues.

11. We are very intuitive and can sense danger or a shady figure a mile away. We pay attention to our intuition, gut reactions, hunches, and our “take” on people, ideas, places, situations, and problems.

12.  Our friends can always turn to us for honest straightforward advice, but with a sympathetic tone.

13. Although we can be indecisive it is often because we are cautious of offending others.

14.We may tend to hold on to the past, but once we love you we won’t stop.
15. A Cancer actively nourishes and feeds you while making sure you have what you need to survive and thrive. Cancer nourishes in a dynamic insistent and purposeful way.

16.  We can be very defensive and will stand up for ourselves and our belifes.

17. Though we are capable of acting forcefully, we often prefer to “wait and see what happens” before making any moves.

18. Cancer is also a Cardinal Sign. The Cardinal Signs are Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn. These personalities tend to be very direct and to the point in their presentation. They are energetic, personally ambitious, impulsive and impatient.

19. We may take a while to really open up.  We feel comfortable in our “shell” or “home” and we are cautious of breaking out.

20.  Cancer is a feminine sign.  So if you are dating a Cancer man and he says he is different from the other guys… He probably is.

21.Cancer women are natural mothers and Cancer men are natural protectors.  When they come together the family unit is more than safe and comforting.

22. Cancers make excellent business people. Shrewdness and a good memory combined with a natural desire to protect the interests of self and clients, gives Cancers the ability to be successful.

23. We are quiet efficient at wielding authority.

24. Cancers have a flowing approach to love guiding you along on an exciting journey. (Courtesy of @Sextrology)

25. Real talk, we may play hard to get, but with the right words, chemistry, feelings, and overall ambience you can get it.

Splash of Pink

In between working and being a mompenuer.....

 I felt like I was neglecting my home by not splashing some color to feel like we completed the final step to finish the celebration of having our dream home!

I went with this look to soften the space when guests walk in they feel pampered and calm ♡


And mainly because my husband won the bet and I made a blue fiasco of my dining room and living room eeeek! 

I love blue 💙 sometimes...
But my personal home decor style varies. I do love glam with a touch of contemporary modern styles. 

Patterns are a must to make the personality of the room's atmosphere come alive.

My love of street style has reflected onto my home decor choices.

I'll be uploading a full house tour on our family youtube soon...

Mommy + Me Playground


 That's right it's mommy and me today Grayson!
Grayson is now 9 1/2 months and I'm really excited he's no longer a relaxed infant. 
I am in love with his personality as he grows into this little man of the house role. 


Having six children isn't as tough or hard as it sounds, it's sort of like being a lifetime mentor to awesome kids you love guiding towards a better them. 
My children are truly laid back and into technology than the average child in this era. I'm sure they'll be stoked to meet Bill Gates himself haha....I promise I will post the Pros and Cons of raising six children.



We headed to our local Playground for some Mommy and Me quality time while the other children were in school. He really loves the outdoors and even says BYE-BYE now when he sees me put on his sweater or coat! It's really cute to hear :-) 


We are still working on his clinginess because he is really attached to my hip or maybe as far as clinging to my rib (seriously clingy). Let's get to him really enjoying his little outdoor fun with his mommy.


I hope you don't poke fun like I did because he hated the slide so much. I wish I was blogging this super happy to be going down the slide baby experience but then it wouldn't be his real-life experience sheesh was he angry.....

After his Angry bird moment he laughed and took a nice nap on our stroll back home. 

How do you handle breaking your baby from being so clingy??.......






Brisk + Comfy Saturday

How was your Saturday??......

What I'm wearing:
Shirt × Vintage

Shoes × Charlotte's Russe

Fall Favorite + Aquaphor

10.10.2018

Here's to the Fall !!! Hey Darlings I'm usually in full mom mode when it comes to back-to-school and especially with considering changing skin care routines for the kids. 
My family are not strangers to dry skin and I'm always looking for products that can help keep their skin from dryness and brutality to the skin that fall season brings with it.

Let's be honest, when we were younger it was the simple skin care routine (Vaseline).....
I kid you not!!!
Lets be technically honest here we had no choice back then 
I feel a little uncomfortable putting such a thick coat to my children's face and hands because it has such heavy consistency to it.

Using the new Aquaphor ointment body spray has been a lifesaver to me and my family. You basically just shake and spray 3 to 6 inch away from your skin and just rub it in and that's it.

I would recommend this to anyone with dry skin or even eczema I usually use the traditional cream but I found that the spray has been a better fit.

Happy Monday! 

        Oh, and it's Columbus day. Technically just another beginning stress of the weekday.

Besides it being completely muggy, I wore my Forever 21 grey trench coat that I brought last winter. It's so stylish and warm for weather like this in New York.

Let me remind you it's not a minute I don't pray for the sun to just warm up my now gloomy mood because I love summer time so much it hurts literally.
