Summer In The City

There’s no better place in the world like New York City in the summertime, and I want to explore everything the city has to offer. So I thought, why not bring along my girls to do things that we’ve never done before for Essence Magazine’s “Girlfriend Adventures” series. We’ve already gone salsa dancing, so our next stop?

I had such an amazing time and each dish we prepared exceeded my expectation of deliciousness! This foodie’s dream came true inside of that kitchen, so much so a food blog could be in the works soon… maybe DivasandForks.com? (HA!)
