Nairobi, Kenya
If you could be any wild animal, what would you be? I legitimately asked myself this the entire time I was on the safari in Kenya. Would I want to be as quiet and meek as an elephant or as bold and alert as… Continue Reading “Nairobi, Kenya”
Judith’s New Name.
Sundays are generally filled with laughs, reflection, and planning for the week to come. This Sunday was much different, though. This Sunday I was invited to baby “Judith’s” Dedication at church. Why’d I put Judith in quotes? We’ll get there. If you haven’t read… Continue Reading “Judith’s New Name.”
There’s Hope.
I was finally able to go downtown under the bridge and get some shots of the new mural. There’s so much hurt happening right now. Every time I read a blog or website in Jos, its focus is murder, tribal wars, political disarray, and… Continue Reading “There’s Hope.”
The Women of Hope and Batik Fabric
So much has happened in the past few weeks. Initially, I planned to talk about some of those things, but this day was too sweet not to share first. I think sometimes we glorify our hurt. We give it an unwarranted, undeserved pedestal, and… Continue Reading “The Women of Hope and Batik Fabric”
Acha Pudding.
Here’s a quick recipe I think is among my top 3 favorite Nigerian dishes. One of my University-level students made it for me to try, then I asked about a recipe and realized it’s not hard at all. She has consistently brought me random… Continue Reading “Acha Pudding.”
Egusi Soup and Tuwo Rice

Nigerian Meat Pies and Christmas.
If you’ve been following my website for more than a few months, you know that nothing is what it seems. Thankfully though, when I share a recipe, it’s an actual recipe-not a rouse to get clicks. Look out, it will be full of unfortunates… Continue Reading “Nigerian Meat Pies and Christmas.”
Hello, Arkansas. Goodbye, Arkansas!
We are saying farewell to March with a short and unexpected Travel Blog. After having the catheter, managing pain, and many unwarranted doctor visits, I was sure I wouldn’t be able to afford a March trip. If you haven’t been following my website, you… Continue Reading “Hello, Arkansas. Goodbye, Arkansas!”
Not so D.C.
This week I headed out to Washington D.C. Unfortunately, this trip was far from anything I could have thought up on my own. Well, my first night was fairly slow-paced. I spent the evening with my host discussing things I could do for the… Continue Reading “Not so D.C.”
Going, going, GONE.
The week has started, and I’m pretty anxious about my upcoming trips. I decided that with all of the traveling I did last year, I wanted to keep up the momentum. Today is February 5, 2018 and I’m taking my first couple of trips… Continue Reading “Going, going, GONE.”
