Get the money, Dolla Dolla bills y'all! Coming to an online web platform soon. Dr. Williams and I talk through the logistics of a course about the foods of the African diaspora. Taking up this mantle to teach is both exciting and daunting, I hope I do the culture and cuisine as proud as I can. Shout out to Oldways out of Boston as well for doing a lot of the heritage diet work since the 90's and highlighting African food culture in 2015. A link for their website, volunteer opportunities, and curriculum on various diets of the world is below.
Bless up and Stay Sharp!

Come and let's play together in the bright sunny weather! Top Chef host Padma Lakshmi does a fantastic job chronicling the foodways of all the immigrant cultures that make America great. The episode we watched talks about Gullah cuisine and culture and it was a beautiful thing. Opening the episode is Michael Twitty who is best selling author and a culinary historian of the food of the enslaved. Links below talk more about Gullah history and the theme song from the cartoon.

Juneteeth was always lit, but this year it is even more important that we celebrate. We need to keep being joyful because that is a part of healing too. This episode might be a little chopped n' screwed but I had a lot going on today, fam please forgive me( hahaha). I hope you enjoy it anyway, cause this friday is special and I had to get an episode out on this day of celebration. I made a red velvet cake this week too! Historically, to my knowledge, was red using beets originally to represent the bloodshed of the enslaved, then capitalism used the tradition to sell food dye. A pic of my plated cake will but up soon. Google some juneteeth celebrations near you, or make something special it doesn't have to be extra but just from the heart.
Bless you and stay sharp!

So this episode is the beginning of our Hip Hop Homestead. Shout out to Leah Penniman who dropped the knowledge via one of her Ask a Sista Farmer Fridays ( on Facebook-we highly recommend as a great resource for taking back and honoring land) that the difference between a homestead and a farm, is the scale and a matter of economics. A homestead produces food for the occupants of the residents, a farm produces food as a business entity, of selling food for the general public. So thus the idea for the hip hop homestead began. Just as they do on soul fire farm, they listen to music and reconnect with the land. We do the same, music feeds the soul so be careful about your diet. This episode details the planning and research that is needed to try and plant according to companion planting principles and the natural biodiversity of the plot of land that our ancestors worked hard to acquire and protect. We are doing the best we can, learning as we grow, -when we know better we do better, but everyone starts somewhere and this is the start of ours. Planting playlists coming soon!

We got caught! But found something pretty cool to fix up and use later on. I'll give you a hint it has to deal with the hand you are dealt. Material culture is all around us and is important too. Cast Iron is all forms, represent to me blackness, forged in fire, and can be useful in so many ways than one realizes. If you got it (cast iron) its so special I know it can be scary, all rusty and crusty- but see beyond that to the beauty before time took advantage. They say iron sharpens iron after all, right. Well you gotta be iron to fix iron, so see the links below for tips. The pinterest link is for a visiual on what our IRON MADIEN looks like. Material culture is what we use, culture is what makes us who we are. Culture is beatiful and can at times be compartmentalized, ya know like good prep should be. The way all the cultures you identify with combine and show up for you is what makes you, YOU! And you are amazing, unless you are prejudice (people) or racist(systems)- aint nobody got time for that and something will be said or done about that!
Bless Up and Stay Sharp!

Starring role in this episode, by the infamous soon, to hopefully be famous, more famous than famous Amos, hahaha- Coffee Colored Confections-Brown Butter Sugar/Whatever You like cookies. For sale now on our website. The OG recipe is on the top of the Quaker Oats box, but why make them when we can upgrade them, or level them up for ya! Many laughs and realizations were had during the screening of this show. It is well made and depicts one family's experience of being black with money in the US of A. Media Matters, so stay blessed and stay sharp! It's funny how the reviews from rotten tomatoes, for this show, reflect created Kenya Barris's actual reality as a content creator of coffee color. Just know we are Barris fans in this household. Keep in mind this show and the links have some 'colorful' language. Myself-Corrine being a fan of Modern Family, BlackAF feels like the modern black family that we need to see. Dry humor is required to enjoy as well. Say what you will about Mr. Hart, he has a great POV on the show as a rich young black father in Hollywood see the last link below.

This is a set up. Corrine bakes cookies and teaches her son how to woah. The today show plays in the background profiling small businesses and Corrine reflects on her entrepreneurial childhood.
