Outside My Comfort Zone Again. But We Need To Talk.
Here I am again, outside my comfort zone, but we need to keep the conversation going. And, if you read my post ” I don’t usually do this, but…” you’ll know that being controversial is definitely outside my comfort zone. I always left that to my mother. But, I recently discovered the DNA Discussion Project started by […]

My Mother, My Inspiration, at Any Age. The wisdom of Eartha Kitt.
When you read and learn about the wisdom of Eartha Kitt, you can see why my mother was, and still is, my inspiration. At any age. Age isn’t something we really think about until we start to do it. When we’re little, we yearn to be ‘grown up’, and then, when we get there, […]
The legacy we leave – Eartha Kitt’s daughter reflects on her mother’s teaching.
We all have some sort of legacy we leave. Whether we’re world famous or known just to our families, we all have something to share. And as we share, hopefully with love and compassion, we hopefully can learn to appreciate the impact EVERY being makes on someone. That person is the pebble in the […]
Eartha Kitt was born to Wear Purple

My mother was my biggest supporter and maybe because I was an extension of her name, she thought I too had the ability to be a creative. One of the many hobbies I have delved into over the years has been photography, and my mother always praised my ‘eye’ and enjoyed having my images framed […]
Be Your Valentine. Love Yourself First
Be Your Own Valentine. Let’s make Valentine’s Day a day we celebrate loving ourselves and teach our children the importance of self-love. “It’s all about falling in love with yourself and sharing that love with someone who appreciates you, rather than looking for love to compensate for a self-love deficit.” ~Eartha Kitt #EmbraceWhoYOUAre […]
Shaking Things Up
Behind every strong woman is a strong role model. For me, that was my mother. My mother was definitely a woman who shook things up. And, not necessarily because she was fearless. In fact, I think it was often fear that motivated her. What continues to amaze me even at the age of fifty-six and […]
Our Mother Daughter Style
Our mother daughter style was quite different. Aside from the difference in our height (she was five feet two inches and I am five feet seven inches), skin and hair coloring ( check out my post Why Don’t You Look More Like Your Mother?, for more on that), my mother, Eartha Kitt, was attracted to […]
