My Shower

The older I get the longer I take in the shower.

The water has so much more meaning to me now as it bounces off my skin.

I want to feel it again.

and again.

And just one more time. Cuz time has no value at that moment.

Only when the water runs cold or my skin begins to look old.

A shower is sometimes all I need.

At that moment I finally breathe to a point of relief. Sometimes I be in disbelief at how good dat shyt feel.

My nigga dis shower can't be real.

And it knows how to heal.

Heal all my life battle scars, internal pain and tension.

Relaxes my muscles and did I forget to mention.

Ya girl be squeaky clean.

From the Lemongrass soap to the sugar scrubbed down my skin look extra lean.

Oh and don't let me get an incense.

Fye dat bitch up  it just might get explicit.

My need for this liquid right now has not limit.

I need this. Right now this shower might be the reason. I'm sinking. Stop peeping.

Buju Bonton or Les Nubuian. Seem to be the only Pandora stations my body responds to at that moment in time and I slow wind.

Piece of mind is what I seek when I turn the nozils on and a piece I get. Every time. 

Body Fine

...now

My shower.

Cooking Brown Rice

This task takes a long time to me. Being that I make my own rules I don't like to measure anything, so I eyeball my rice to water ratio. However the boiling process seems to be longer than my bowel movements after eating chitterlings on Thanksgiving. I promise it took me 6 hours to cook 3 servings of brown rice. I added Olive Oil, and Kosher Salt for taste and boiled. While the rice was boiling I was able to clean the entire hotel room eliminating work for house keeping, cook another meal for the next day and balance my check book... from 2002. The extended cooking of brown rice makes me wonder, what in the hell do they do to the white rice which makes it cook so fast. I'm a woman that loves to cook but cooking brown rice makes me want to rethink this whole woman thing and just go live in the Amazon Rain Forrest with those frogs that change colors (I can't remember their name). Anyway... I just wanted to rant a little bit about how brown rice will cause you to miss a few birthdays waiting for it to cook to perfection. I will say though, once it was done, it was nice and fluffy with excellent flavor. I made Tuna with Cilantro and Lime to go with. A po man's meal with a twist. I love this dish. I would post the gredients with measurements but as I stated... I make my own rules. You should try it some time.
