Unfortunately my phone died before I could participate in the raffle but y’all still gonna get these pictures.

Shout out to for putting together the cutest Earth Day walk. They gave us a photo scavenger hunt list to fulfill and you can see the couple of photos and prompts I fulfilled in the carousel.
Highly recommend adding a photo scavenger hunt to your next hot girl walk with the homie, it really enhances the experience.

No choice in being born but the choice to live is yours.

The medical system is an abyss I hope I’m lucky enough to crawl out of. However, in lieu of any real progress, I’m choosing to live everyday with as much intention as possible.
Also
Idk why no one told me you can whip coffee!?
Also
The Drama was a wonderful representation of how someone can give their friend’s blinding benefit of the doubt while allowing those same flawed humans the chance to berate your partner with no regard to nuance. Because like… the closet though 😳

Another publication in the books 👏🏾

Thrilled to say this photo from my Izzy’s Muse 2022 series along side an image from my What is A Home 2022 series can be viewed in the issue. Go to FStopMagazine.com to view the full digital issue.

As a multifaceted artist I’m constantly haunted by the phrase “a jack of all trades is a master of none”. Sometimes it feels like there’s no time or way to honor all of my passions especially with fast turnover of social media. However, this year I set out to remind myself of the entirety of the phrase: “A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one”. I submitted new and old work to a collection of magazines and crossed my fingers that my work would be appreciated. To my surprise the two images chosen by were photos that showcased many of my passions. In both series I styled each artist, creative directed the photoshoot, organized questions that would spark dialogue and photographed each image.
Attempting to try everything my brain imagines can be exhausting but moments like these remind me to continue to create authentically and to be my biggest advocate. Most importantly just because it was created years ago does not make the moment or art less valuable.

If I brought the Izzy’s Muse series back, what artist should be the next muse?

Weave silliness into your everyday.
-
Growing up made me realize how necessary it is to play. That making time to do silly things would alway seem less important when juxtaposed with life’s hardships. However, getting through the daily to do list or any difficult task feels far more doable when you give yourself judgement free moments to be silly.

I hope you’re playing a practical joke on a loved one today. If you did let me know in the comments, it’ll give me inspiration for my next silly moment.

Reading is fundamental

Choosing books I’ll actually enjoy is a difficult art. It eased me to hear the check out person read one of my picks and enjoyed it. We shall see how I fare.

As a certified birthday loving Cutie, it would be remiss of me to not celebrate my birthday with the grandeur it deserves. Lucky for me, the x Michelinman dinner was so decadent and delicious that I bothered the chef for his recipe to the celery root puree. Even though it was days after my calendar birthday, the chef was spirited enough to grant me the recipe! This dinner has been the best gift to myself yet.

If you’re a fan of food as much as I am, enjoy my initial musings for each dish below.
🍽️
- [ ] Mojo jojo
K**b creek 9yr, black garlic & sesame fat wash, pomegranate molasses & spiced Demerara
- up from a nap in the car, I’m listening to michillenman and walking in to this impactful alcoholic bitter that smells like peanut better even though there’s none in sight. I feel post nap is the only way to enjoy this at its peek. Bourbon thick

Beef tartare
Can beef be refreshing?
Bone marrow and vinaigrette is a lethal combination that brings so much body to the course.

One down. Can the scallop compete

Scallop
Love it all but the scallop lol but I love the way they infused so much flavor around the meaty and deciptively flavorless scallop
Cooked perfectly

Peanut butter timbs
Implies the drink is heavy with the name but it lights up my palate in a way that I could almost enjoy a brisk walk through the city, in search for the next adventure.
It does hit you like a timb stomp on the first sip though
The ultimate pineapple baddie

Branzino stuffed oxtail
Mmmmmmmmmmhhhhmmmmmm
The smell jumps off the plate
Table side pour of the apex predator jus makes you wait for the first bite in the wildest way. The bite ends up being so worth the wait.

Pork belly
Thanksgiving dinner good
Celery root puree makes me stupid. Better than mash potatoes
If I saw it going by I’d be jealous
