Did You Miss Me

By Queen B. D.. Posted in Weekday Blues | No Comments »

Lol Hey BabyDolls as you may have noticed due to unfortunate circumstances BDK was down for a few days but not to worry everything happens for a reason and now we are back fiercer than ever! Thanks for being patient and continuing to check back your the best. I am back to give you more Smackalicious posts so keep it tuned! Please bear with me and give me a minute thanks for the comments plus I will be returning emails shortly :-p

 

OK so when I first seen this, I was wondering whether or not to post about it. For those that don’t know I am a hard Wendy Williams fan and have been one for some time. As you will see she is one of my accredited BabyDolls right up there with Kimora Lee Simmons. Now as sharp cut as Wendy can be sometimes, Wendy will Always be Wendy and I admire her for that because it’s just her and there are a lot of fakes trying to be Wendy. So as you know after 22 years of holding the entertainment industry down, Wendy now has her own talk show which I congratulate her for. No sooner as it started there is already drama. What’s funny is when I was watching this video I couldn’t help but think. Too Black females battling like this while trying to remain classy in front of a studio audience is a sight indeed. I felt Wendy’s frustration and knew that she wanted to slap ol’ girl up side her head. But none the less she held it down. Ex US Apprentice contestant Omarosa was giving a further 5 mins of air time as a Guest on the show and tried to take it there with miss Wendy. This is what happened.

Come on Omarosa how catty can you get. I think for a second you forgot who’s show it was. For someone who does business I’m sure you must have heard the rule: Never battle someone on their own playing field. I’m so glad that Wendy tastefully put you back in your place and let you know who’s boss! Wendy’s last line was Classic! I Loved it! I also find it real pathetic that O felt she had to swing below the belt to get on top in a losing argument to gain some ranks. I’m glad Wendy is who she is and I’m sure that was nothing but water to a swans back.

What Wendy Said:

“I wanted to throw her off the set,”

“Omarosa wished her career was my career,” Wendy also commented “Omarosa is a delusional, D-list, pathetic woman.”

Wendy on Omarosa coming back on the show:

“I have no reason to invite Omarosa back to the show,” said Williams. “That’s done. She had her moment.”

Totally agreed! QueenB.D

Beat That Monday Feeling!

By Queen B. D.. Posted in Weekday Blues | No Comments »

So although its Bank Holiday here in the UK, it may not be for others around the world. Its Monday you could have done with an extra day off and by the end of the day your 4inch heels are killing! Not to worry though us BabyDolls always find a solution, here are some ideas to end your Monday with a bang and beat that Monday feeling. The first is a salad. As we approach summer we all tend to be reminded that eating healthy is a Must to be looking like doll so here is a light spring salad in 4 easy steps to accompany your desired meal.

Chicken with lemon & capers

Lemon Salad Preparation: 20 mn
Cooking time: 10 mn

Ingredients
600g skinned chicken breast
2 tbsp flour
2 tbsp olive oil
Juice of lemons
50 ml white vermouth
2 tbsp capers
2 tbsp finely-chopped parsley

Recipe :
1. Cut the chicken into strips and roll into the flour to get an even coating. Season as desired.

2. Heat the oil in a wok on a medium heat and cook the chicken for 3-4 minutes, turning several times to brown them all over. Remove from the oil and put in a serving dish to keep warm.

3. Add the vermouth and lemon to the wok and cook for 2-3 minutes until you get a smooth mixture. Add the capers and leave just long enough for them to warm through.

4. Remove from the heat, add the parsley and mix well. Pour sauce over the chicken and serve immediately. Goes well with rice.

Then

Indulge in your salad with your favourite glass of Rosé then enjoy a relaxing evening with some scented candles.

Hope that works a treat xoxoxo
