“John J. College Graduate Killed Over $20.00 Loan”

The ReadyWriter

Kamisha Richards (pictured above), was stabbed to death by Kayla Henriques, pictured below.

Richards had recently loaned Kayla the sister (of her boyfriend) $20 to buy disposable diapers and milk for her infant – and became angry after learning the money was spent on other things.

The two then exchanged online insults through Facebook over the weekend, then the harsh feelings escalated through a series of text messages…

Kayla waited for Kamisha to come home from work last night, then stabbed her to death. Kamisha Richards was rushed to Brookdale University Hospital, where she was pronounced dead.

Kamisha Richards worked for JP Morgan Chase, her family said, and had hopes to apply to law school in the fall.

This story is not only sad and senseless but tragic in every sense.

“Charlie Sheen Passed All Drug Tests But Still Seems”

The ReadyWriter

Crazy as hell!!!!

Making all of his media rounds on the talk show circuit, Sheen appeared on the Piers Morgan show on CNN last night.

One would think Sheen was on a 10 day drug binge, but according to RadarOnline, his drug tests are all clean; they administered the tests this past weekend.

Still Morgan, the show’s host, was determined to get Sheen to admit to getting high last night, but Sheen denied being on drugs. When asked by Piers if he was taking cocaine, Sheen answered, “I didn’t ‘take’ cocaine, I had to pay for it.”

Sheen, 45, didn’t apologize for his past drug and alcohol binges or his recent tirade against his CBS boss that resulted in the suspension of his show “Two and a Half Men” for the season. “I wouldn’t trade any of it, because I’m still alive,” he said.

Sheen posed happily for photographers with his unorthodox family—his two live-in girlfriends and his “nanny” Natalie Kenly. Together, the 3 of them raise his twin sons, in what he calls “domestic bliss”.

In the meantime, Sheen had his attorneys draw up papers to sue CBS for loss of his $2 million per episode salary. His lawyer Marty Singer presented CBS with a demand for nearly $16 million in lost wages. Singer, said Sheen, is willing and able to get back to work.

“We Dined At Morton’s Steak House On Friday”

The ReadyWriter

This is not a soul food restaurant NO, but we dined here Friday night because it was a birthday celebration and restaurant of choice for the celebratory occassion.

Morton’s steakhouse is an upscale restaurant and a bit expensive, the food is excellent and well worth its portions. And in such a challenging economy they have many specials that two can choose from, but the selections are still very pricey.

They give you this awesome food presentation before they take your order, with these huge vegetables and a live lobster to drive home their food inclusions. Their family style sides are huge and more than plentiful.

Everyone in my crew had steaks, from filet mignon to porter house prime., I chose the salmon with these huge shrimp included. Our sides were; mashed potatoes, asparagus, onion rings and brocoli.

For dessert I had the warm chocolate lava cake pictured below.

I say, dine at Morton’s Steak house, if it’s even to treat yourself, it’s worth the splurge at least once a year.

Please join me in wishing my Pisces crony (February 25) –> a very Happy Birthday! 🙂

“We Dined At Billie Black’s Last Night”

The ReadyWriter

And all I have to say is, Sylvia might be the Queen of soul food but Billie’s Black must be the King!

Located in one of my favorite neighborhoods, Harlem New York, this restaurant served up some serious soul food to satisfy our appetites.

To conclude and commemorate black history month, me and my staff started our weekend restaurant excursion, that we’re calling our “tour de-soul“, where we will patronize and dine at black owned restaurants from Thursday through Sunday.

Billie’s Black’s have a happy hour and the heifers on my staff had to be there for that, because of course you all know; blog queen don’t drink!!!!

Let me get right to our menu choices: for appetizers, we had fried chicken wings, catfish strips, salmon cakes and shrimp cocktail.

For dinner our choices were: BBQ salmon, chili red snapper, carolina stewed chicken, Billie’s grand BBQ ribs and the fried catfish, they kept calling it crack fish.

Our sides were: potato salad, lima beans, black-eye peas, collard greens, mac&cheese and mashed potatoes <-(what can I say, there’s a white girl in my crew).

Parking not the best however we had no issues.

So, whenever you’re in the mood for some soul food diversity check out Billie’s Black, there’s something for everyone and it’s well worth the trip.
