Frenemies

With friends like those who needs enemies? Is a popular saying we've all heard before. You here Whodini say it on their rap song Friends with the question "how many of us have them?" I thought of that as I was sitting watching an episode of VH-1's Basketball Wives, a reality show centered, for the most part, around women who were married to or involved with men who played professional basketball.


Last season, an episode came to a head when it was revealed that one of the women, Jennifer Williams, who during a break up of her friendship with another one of the women, Evelyn Lozada, had either revealed or lied about some pretty personal stuff regarding Evelyn and her daughter to other people.

It was badd. It was really badd. I mean another one of the women Malaysia Pargo threw a whole table at her. Physically picked it up and tossed it like she was throwing something in the trash can. Peep the gif here:

She really wanted to attack that ass and would have if the other women present had not intervened and protected Jennifer. But the fact of the matter is, based on what I seen and heard, Jennifer was being a disloyal friend. She had no business lying and stirring up the pot in other matters (The Old Texts to Tami Roman in the Cracked Phone Situation) which lead to the revelation that she had been telling Evelyn's business simply because they were no longer friends.

Stuff that was no one's business.  It wasn't really even her business. I'm sure these things were either told to her in confidence, or not at all, and I'm sure at the time she swore she would never tell another soul. However, once she was mad at Evelyn and apparently deeply, like deeper than Atlantis hurt by the breakdown of their friendship she felt the need to strike back behind Evelyn's back and betray her confidence or whatever by telling other people these very personal things about her and members of her family specifically her daughter Shaniece knowing that this information would not cast them in a very good light and so it was revealed on this beautiful day in Amsterdam that she had in fact told other people these things and it painted her as a disloyal person that she is and the fact that she had betrayed her bestie Evelyn once again...and to make matters worse Shaunie co-signed on the fact that Jennifer was in fact bumping her gums and spilling this tea. Chile...

My question is this, is this betrayal a deal breaker? Can someone come back from that? Would you betray a friend or associate and reveal hurtful even damaging information about them to the masses just because your hurt or angry? Or would you stick to the code and take it to your grave like you actually SAID you would from the get go? I'd have to say that my word is bond and I would expect the same from those I deal with. What say you?

An Official Bahama Mama

I did it guys!! I took my 1st cruise on the Carnival Elation recently. We flew from California to Jacksonville to board the cruise ship. From there we sailed to Freeport and Nassau in the Bahamas. 
                                        Image result for carnival elation
Omg.  I had a blast on the cruise as well as off of the cruise. As a first time cruiser I definitely was delighted by the sights and sounds of the ship. Firstly, the size of the ship blew me away only to be told by some return passengers that the Carnival Elation is actually one of the smaller ships in the carnival fleet.  However,  I was still pleasantly surprised by the size and with the amenities on board. The staff was always pleasant and professional and the food offerings...you guys know I'm a foodie. That Guy's Burgers...chile. Oh my goodness. You definitely have to try it. I ate there every day.  Every day I ate a burger. I also had an ice cream cone every day. I was just like a little kid in a candy store.

We chose anytime dining so we were free of a specific time restriction. So we were kind of leisurely with our mealtimes.  Breakfast was always crowded, of course.  They always had a nice buffet style breakfast on tap with potatoes,  eggs, bacon, ham, waffles, pancakes, grits (yasss grit lovers rejoice!), oatmeal and they also had an omelet bar, a sweet spot, a continental breakfast station and even pizza 24 hours a day.  Coffee, tea and juices were readily available. Just all the breakfast options you could want.  They also had restaurants where you could order a items like Avocado Toast and Eggs Benedict for the more sophisticated palettes of the world.

That's definitely something that I will do on my next cruise because I didn't try that this time nor did I attend Elegant Night/Captain's Dinner which is a nice dinner with items such as prime rib and roasted brussel sprouts and the like. So that gives me something to look forward to in the future.  I will post some pics from my trip just to share. Are you a cruise buff or are ready to get your feet wet with your first cruise? Book a cruise today!!

Who You Calling A Bihh....

Yes...we are beautiful black women. Yes...we should hold each-other in high regard. Yes...we should have all the respect for ourselves in the world. However, I need to know who all saw and enjoyed Girls Trip?  Raise your hands. I actually saw the movie more than once. I saw it with a group of friends and a second time with a smaller group that included my mother, my bff's mother,  my bff and both of my adult daughters and I thoroughly enjoyed each time and they did as well.


Now everyone everywhere is not gonna enjoy everything no matter how great and wonderful you think it is and that's fine. People will always be allowed to have their own opinion whether you agree with it or not and I'm not about to glorify other people's opinions especially if I don't agree with them and I'm not here to give a review of the movie because I want you to see it for yourself. 

The movie Girls Trip did VERY well and many months after its release it is still the subject of conversations. The controversy over the way the women in the movie addressed each other seems to be a hot topic even though it's an old topic. People are a little upset about the frequency the word "bitch" was used and the women addressing each other by it in the movie. You can see the cringe from some people when the word is used.


I have seen several Facebook posts where that has been the question asked...do you and your friends refer to each-other as bitches, hoes, tricks, tramps and other various derogatory terms? Now my circle of friends doesn't regularly refer to each-other as bitches and other charming terms as such but have we ever? Yes. Might we in the future?  Yes. Does it bother me? Do I take it in a derogatory way? No and I personally feel like that's one of the issue some people are having with this movie and that's taking some of the focus off of the positives which are sisterhood, living in your own truth, acceptance, forgiveness, traveling, bonding and inclusion to name a few. 


Rumor has it that there will eventually be a sequel. Would you see a second one? How did you feel about the comradery between the women and how they expressed themselves with each other? Was it a total turn off? Were you cringing and grinding your jaws every time the word was used? Or are you #teamnofucks? Could you see pass it to enjoy the movie?
