Coilylocks Reader Survey – Help a Sista Out!

September 1, 2015 by Alisha 1 Comment

Almost 8 years ago I published my first blog post. Then my 2nd one was 4 years later…LOL! That was just after I did my first Big Chop and I wanted to share my journey with the rest of the world. So much has changed since those first two posts and it amazes me daily how much it has grown along the way. I’ve had a chance to make new friends literally all over the world with me just rambling out things going on in my life.

A few years ago I learned that people could actually make money doing this. And with that comes people selling you pipe dreams or giving you misinformation. I’ve made a lot of mistakes with my blog and I’ve also grown a lot as well. I started off just talking about natural hair and the journey that my teenager and I were going on together to have healthy hair. While working on my blog I met other bloggers and influencers that discussed health/fitness, nail art, motherhood and then WINE! I think by now you all know how much I love wine…LOL! [Read more…]

Love at First Sight…It’s Wine of Course!

August 25, 2015 by Alisha 16 Comments

For the last year I’ve been working on sharing my love of wine with the world. It’s been one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. You know when you’re so passionate about something but then you have a million and one ideas running through your mind…sometimes just have to take a break and figure out what the heck you want to do. And it doesn’t help that I get distracted easily and I procrastinate… a lot!

I am happy to FINALLY unveil my first wine inspired t-shirt! *insert drum roll* I thought how cute would it be to have a wine glass and wine bottle going in for a hug. It’s basically love at first sight! And if you haven’t figured it out by now, I LOVE WINE!

The other day one of my good friends shared an article with me about the importance of having wine night with your girlfriends once a week. The last time I went out with the girls for a fun, relaxing evening was on my birthday…almost a year ago!

That is a damn shame! I mean c’mom a year! Today I want to discuss my 5 reasons why girls night out is essential to my sanity. [Read more…]

The Olivia Pope Diet – Popcorn & Wine

February 18, 2015 by Alisha 19 Comments

It’s THURSDAY! If you watch Scandal then you know that Olivia’s meal of choice is typically wine & popcorn. I mean she’s a single girl and works her azz off “fixing” stuff. So she doesn’t really have time for full course meals. LOL

After dinner and the house is quiet and calm, I get ready to watch Scandal each Thursday night at 8pm CST. It is pretty much the only time that everyone in my house actually leaves me alone. Even my 5yo knows not to mess with me. A few weeks ago one of my favorite wine glasses broke and after I ~~cried like a baby~~ swept it up I realized I needed a new wine glass that would make watching one of my favorite shows even more enjoyable.
