Tips On Traveling With A Baby On A Plane

Traveling with baby on a plane - Verastic

This post has been a long time coming. Back in January, Ada Verastic was only 3 months old, and we embarked on our first trip together (to Austin, Texas). It was my first time ever traveling with an infant. I did my best to prepare for it, but there were some things I failed to prepare for. If you are planning to travel with a baby on a plane, here are some things you should consider before you do so: 1. Unless you are an early morning person, don't schedule your flight for too early in Read More

XFINITY Can Make You A Super Mom

Last week, I drove to Washington D.C. for the XFINITY Moms event hosted by Comcast. Six months ago, I was not a mommy yet, so I probably would not have been invited to this event. Long before I had Ada Verastic, Igwe and I used to talk about technology and how things are so different with babies/children these days. Would the new children be flying cars, instead of driving them? We'd wonder. Igwe often makes fun of the fact that when he was growing up, he was too broke to even have a real ball Read More

There's a "thing" going around the Nigerian web and social media. It's a quote where [former?] Nigerian actress, Nkiru Sylvanus is allegedly saying that there are more men than women, so she does not mind being someone's second wife, if the situation and the person are good. She is also quoted as saying that women need to give up this idea of one man, one wife.

TV Show To Watch: Damien On A&E

I don't know about you, but for me, if I was going to name anything in my life, one name I would never is Damien. I got introduced to Damien as a child. My parents were movie fanatics and they used to have every movie on VHS. My dad, especially, has a thing for scary movies, and I used to be so terrified by them, even when I was too young to understand the story line, which might explain why you now cannot get me to go see a scary movie. Nope. Won't do it. So I was a child when I got Read More

Recap: Toyota Gave Me A Rav-4 And I Spoke At The Morgan State University BrandU Event

Two totally unrelated events, but they happened back to back. Last week was busy for me. It seemed like I had somewhere to be everyday, and this week is even busier. I cannot call this a weekend recount because the two events I'm writing about happened during the week. First and foremost, I shared on social media that Toyota gave me a Rav-4, but the post was a bit misleading. They gave me a car to drive for a week because I am totally awesome, and because they are trying to use "idea" to Read More
