Spiritual Sanity {Fasting Day 20}

Source

For the past 20 days I have embarked on a 40 day fast. This is my first time doing a 40 Day one on my own. I've done fast's before while I was in Texas collectively with my church, however this is my first one by myself. I am currently following the Agape Worship Center Prayer, Fasting and Devotion that I found online here. Wherever that they have specific pertaining to their church I just insert my church information along with theirs.

Buddakan



So on Monday night a friend and I visited Buddakan for dinner. This was my first time going and definitely not my last. A coworker of mine which also is a good friend with impeccable taste for the finer things in life suggested this to me long ago, however this is the first time we tried it. Looking on the outside you would not be able to imagine what the inside looked like. The menu is set up so that you are able to share with the whole table. Thank God it was only us two, so we were able to enjoy it a lot. It was indeed an awesome experience.

Heights Cafe


So on Saturday, I decided to get my natural hair trimmed at SuperCuts.....grave mistake. But I digress. No pictures or anything else will be said about my experience except that last sentence. Anywho, I decided to peruse the area of Brooklyn Heights and as I was walked to get a view of the city from Brooklyn I saw gorgeous breakfast being consumed by beautiful people. So I decided to turn back and go inside. I will definitely be returning to Heights Cafe. It is nice a quaint and the food was plate licking good. I decided to get the poached egg which was what brought me in, in the first place. To be exacted, it was a poached egg with bbq pulled pork over a savory corn waffle.

Free & Unfettered


Every morning I take about the same route to head to the train for work. And every morning as I turn the corner there is bread on the ground and flock of birds nipping away at pieces. I was able to capture this picture and it just made me think of how God takes care of his own. Many times we worry for no reason at all, only to be taken care of. In other versions of this verse it says "they do not sow or reap or store away in barns" -NIV. So here it is these birds that are not more valuable than us and the Father provides for them. My question to you is "As children of God, why are we worrying?"

Free and Unfettered,

Welcome to my JULY

Source

Welcome to my July
the BEST MONTH EVER
yes, simply because it's my birth month
smack dab in the middle of the year
re-evaluate your New Years resolutions
make mid year resolutions
and just rock on

Welcome to my July
where the grill's are steaming
and the waters are chilling
where one, two and uni pieces are a norm
Farm markets, picnics, and bike riding is a month

Yes, Welcome to my July
the BEST MONTH EVER!

Last Weekend....in Jamaica


Last weekend my best friend and I ventured out to Jamaica for one of my high school friends wedding. Here just a sneak peak of some shots at the beach, enjoying a coconut, pretending to ride a motor bike, and me and the bestie acting silly. I will do another post that is more focused on the wedding itself with pics of the bride and other things we did. 

Until then,

Cropped, Rotated & Posted {Instagram}


Last week I had a blast with my girls posted in the middle. It started with me making monkey bread muffins for my co workers, then I purchases a crap load of ginger for only $2.10 (I LOVE Chinatown, NY), then me and my friend went to a DatenGame adult night where we played Old school games like Uno, Spades, Taboo etc. Oh and look at that view of the Brooklyn bridge, not sure if I will ever get over it, Especially when the sun is rising and stuff. The two screens on the top are of us watching the game at the 40/40 club, which we lost, but Game 7 is definitely going to be epic. Oh and while walking to meet my friend, a bird pooped on me. Folks say it's good luck, so I'll see. Also my roommate birthday was on June 15, and we celebrated by doing Karaoke, which was totally AWESOME!

Hope you enjoy your everyday!
