  • Mercedes Benz Stadium (Atlanta GA)

    Mercedes Benz Stadium (Atlanta Falcons)

    By: Cece Hymes

    I love football but I never really go to the stadiums. When I moved to Atlanta, I started going to the Football games sometimes. The stadium was really nice. It’s not far from the subway. They tailgate. It was packed. It’s really nice and we always have seats very close to the field. When I tell you that the Celebrities go to these games and support them. We always see stars like Pastor Troy, Big Tigger and more at the games supporting their team.

    The Stadium is very nice. It’s the home of the Atlanta Falcons.  No matter where you sit you always seem to be close to the stadium. They have a falcon statue outside which stands out. The Halo board displays 10k Ultra screens and it is very nice. When you first walk in, walk down a little you can see the field. It’s wide open.

    It’s really a nice stadium and even though it’s not my team I do like the stadium. On my bucket list is to travel and go to at least 5 or more stadiums. I read a book that talked about the different stadiums and how nice they are.

    If you are a football fan, make sure to check out the Atlanta stadium and tell me what you think about it.

    How I spend my Sunday.

    By: Cece Hymes

    On Sundays I always relax and watch some football. I love watching sports. I take Sunday off and relax. I wash clothes on Sundays. I read my bible, watch some movies and enjoy our music review panel. Sunday is a chill day.

    What are some of the things you do on Sunday? Do you relax? Do you work? What do your Sundays look like? Is Sunday’s your favorite day of the week?

  • Self Love & Care Kit

    Self-Love & Care Kit

    Self Love

    What does Self Care mean? When I look it up it says it is the practice of individuals looking after their own health using the knowledge and information available to them.

    With Self care you can do a lot of different things. Everyone does their self-care differently. For me I like to read and listen to motivational things. I like going to pamper myself by getting a manicure and pedicure. To be in a positive and peaceful mind works for me.

    In my opinion I do think everyone needs to take out that time to themselves sometimes. Have a day to relax and pamper yourself. Maybe go to the beach, listen to the waves, relax and take your mind off everything. Sometimes that helps me and then I come back and be ready. Life can get hard, and we need a break from life.

    I love this Quote by Oprah Winfrey “Breathe. Let go. And remind yourself that this very moment is the only one you know you have for sure”.

    Care Kit

    What is a care kit? It’s a parcel of food, money, or luxury items sent to a loved one who is away.

    They have a lot of packages out there. They have some for nails, motivation, food and more. I make some sometimes for different occasions for motivation. I do one for women’s day, Breast cancer month and sometimes other holidays. These can get you through life. Some self-care kits great ideas:

    1.       Candles

    2.       Books

    3.       Chocolate

    4.       Cards

    5.       Spa items

    This mentally helps people out. Let me know what self-care means to you and what care kits you usually use.

  • Candytopia in Atlanta, GA

    Place: Candytopia in Atlanta, Ga

    By: Cece Hymes

    I had a chance to go to Candytopia in Atlanta GA. This was different. It’s like a place of candland, you go through the different rooms and take great pics. It had a big thing with fake marshmallows that kids can jump in and play. It has different pictures of celebrities made out of candy. It’s like a candy playland. Kids would love it.

    They have the room that you can go in and have to find clues. Another room is like a twirl like you falling. It’s just a different experience. If you like Willie Wonka & the Chocolate Factory then you would like Candytopia. It is something like that but a smaller version. I loved that movie growing up so you know I had to go and try this place out.

    Candytopia goes to different cities so check your city and see if it’s one by you to try out. Take the family and go and take plenty of pictures. Enjoy the moment.

    If you’ve ever been to Candtopia tell us what you thought about it.

  • Drunk on love by Jasmine Guillory

    Book: Drunk on Love

    Author: Jasmine Guillory

    By: Cece Hymes

    You know I love a good love story. I actually was glad to read this book because I am getting more into the wine industry. Reading this book talks about the wine vinery. This book was about Margot Noble, co-owner of Napa Valley winery. Her and her brother took over the winery when her uncle passed away. She wants to show her brother that she can run the business and learn the business.

    Luke Williams is in the business as a tech. He quits his job and then moves back home to help his best friend and it makes him closer to his Mom. He gets a job at the winery to try to learn new things and do something fun.

    Margot and Luke meet at a bar and things get hot really fast. They are really attracted to each other. They have a great night and then next thing you know he finds out that his new boss is the same woman he really likes. They try their hardest to be professional at work but all through the day they think about each other. Margot cannot act on it because she doesn’t want her brother or the team to think she is unprofessional or get in any trouble for hooking up with her worker. They become great friends and love talking to each other.

    They have times where they really wish they could talk to each other and hold one another to see if it would be more than just a fling. Luke finally has to quit the winery to help his Mom and as soon as he quits he knows he no longer works for Margot and would love to take their relationship to another level. Luke is younger than Margot so sometimes she thinks he is just young and a fling but the passion she has overlooks that. Luke thinks he is not enough; he lies to his mom just so she can be happy and not be disappointed and the lies he tells comes back to him. Tell the truth and never let no one put you down. Your worth means a lot.

    Luke and Margot find love at the right time in both of their lives. I always say you never know when love will find you. Patience is the key and also find a person you can communicate and be friends with. I believe becoming friends first and everything will fall in place.

    Great Love book. I really enjoyed it. Check it out and tell me what you think. Also join Cece Book Club on IG and Facebook. 

  • A Merry Little mlMeet Cute By Julie Murphy and Dierra Simone

    Book: A Merry Little Meet cute

    By: Julie Murphy and Dierra Simone

    I love reading love stories. Now this love story was a little different than I expected. It was about Bee who has a successful career as a film star and Nolan also having a career in the film industry. They both was fans of each other work. Now Bee the films she did would make a man really go wild for her. She wasn’t used to someone loving her and being in a relationship. She was just used to fun and lust.

    Nolan had a big thing for Bee; he would fantasize about her a lot. They end up doing this film for the holidays, something nice and enjoyable. As they did the film together they became closer and they actually fell for one another. They was at the end of the film and it was time to go home it was the holidays but something got leaked of Bee’s past that may mess up a lot of things.

    I will not give up what happens, you just will have to read the book to see. Just so you know, there is a lot of juiciness in this book. Love is love, everyone needs love and you never know when it’s going to happen. When someone really cares about you they will stand with you and don’t mind telling the whole world. People have different experiences waiting for love. With that being said if you are still waiting on love it’s coming just be patient and you never know the person might be right under your nose.
