Washington Square Park in Manhattan is one of my most favorite places on EARTH!!!! Over the years while chilling in Washington Square Park, I’ve witnessed sex acts, homeless people fighting, grand piano performances, naked sun bathing women, mentally challenged costumed folk scaling the Washington Arch, African/Afro-Caribbean drummers drumming, hustlers hustling and transvestites strutting.

Last week while in NYC not really enjoying Fashion’s Night Out, I stumbled upon a party tent hosted by Revlon in the meat packing district. The party was quite lively with women getting makeovers, dancing in the streets & picture taking. By the time I got into the tent, a lot of older passersby came […]

If I ever want to laugh my ass off when talking to my momma, al I have to o is ask her about her childhood hood & figs. I called her last week after I picked up a few figs last week & asked if she wanted some & she just went off. It was […]

Last night I worked the Detroit Parade Company’s “Flip Floppin Summer VIP Rooftop Party” & had an amazing time!
