Golden Hollywood Cinema: Three (3) Iconic Cary Grant Films
For me, Cary Grant (real name: Archibald Alexander Leach) has always had that je ne sais quoi (I don't know what!). There a something about him that is suave, sophisticated, and debonair, but also ordinary down-to-earth average Mr. Nice Guy. I found one of his quotes and it makes me think this is the reason I liked him so much.

When Did the Practice of Human Bondage Begin?
When did slavery begin? Its practice was commonplace during biblical times as the Bible weaves intricate details into the accounts of daily lives. Bottom line: Slavery did not begin in America, and black people are not the only people who were ever enslaved.

Decision-Making: Life is All About What Works for You!
Several years ago, I came across two young guys who were praising women for being successful Mompreneurs. I wholeheartedly believe in giving credit where credit is due. My husband has passed away so I can write about this now. He never liked the idea of me publicizing the fact that he was a stay-at-home dad. When we were much much younger we made a major decision for finances and family: the two big Fs on everyone's life report card. We decided that I would go out to work and he would stay home and work from home AND take care of our children.

This is a wonderful list of ancient foods published by LoveFOOD. I totally expected to see bread, honey, and wine on the list. But was a little bit surprised by the inclusion of beer, beef jerky, and popcorn.

"The 4400" - This Sci-Fi Series Proved that Humans are Stupid!
If you like science fiction / futuristic mysteries, you’ll probably like “The 4400” (2004–2007). Even though the last episode of the last season was kind of a disappointment, overall it was very entertaining. I enjoyed getting to know the characters and following the storyline with all those plot twists.

Singing the Praises of Capsicum (Hot and Fiery Peppers)
My late mother had a cabinet full of all kinds of herbs and spices in her kitchen. Cayenne pepper was always on her shelf. There were many of us living at home when I was growing up — mom and dad, my brothers, my one sister, and me. With so many varying taste buds to please, my mom didn’t use red pepper to cook with; however, if any of us wanted to sprinkle it on our food to add that extra heat, we were permitted. If there were fresh red peppers we could slice them up and put them in our food.

Peas or Beans and Rice is a Comfort Food Many Equate With Heritage and Home
I'm American, of Bahamian descent, and my family loved Bahamian style pigeon peas and rice. There is a variation of this rice dish practically all over the Caribbean. That's why I emphasized the “Bahamian style”. My father was a Bahamian. My mom was American, but she learned how to cook this dish for him and I grew up eating it at least 2-3 days during the week, and for sure it was served as a part of our large Sunday dinners. Other than a bay leaf I can't recall all of the herbs and spices she used in her recipe. Honestly, I don't think she ever made it the same way twice. When I grew up and got married, my late husband who was also from the Bahamas showed me all kinds of ways to vary the recipe. He did not like to use a bay leaf and preferred dried thyme leaves. In addition, he loved sampling all kinds of peas-n-rice or beans-n-rice recipes. The pigeon peas and rice dish is just one of them and I learned how to cook all of the recipes.
