Meet Kelvin Okafor

Everyone is blessed with a truly amazing gift. The Bible says your gifts will bring you in to see kings.

Kelvin Okafor is a man who has found his gift. In art. Life like, could be a still photograph. And yet it is pencil and charcoal.

Check out some of his work below and visit his blog to see his process

And yes, all those are drawings (except the one of him of course) not black and white photographs

Blog Challenged-there is such a thing!

Ok I have been a blogger for a little over a year and today I am wondering why no one ever told me about 'following' a blog. I only just found out today cause prior to today I used to check out my favorite blogs everyday waiting on 'thought provoking' posts! But today it all changed!

My new obsession is smoothies!!= Especially since I have this awesome blender my mom gave me, it's old school but so much better than any new one I have tried. You can blend fine or blend it in a way that you will have small juicy chunky surprises :) all up to you. I've tried different fruits but today it's all about the mango! I haven't yet met anyone who does not like this fruit. Some ppl say it causes them to run(in other words, diarrhea...lol) but if you take about a cupfull, you should be fine each time. Also, cut up the fruit into cubes or slices the night before and put in the freezer. Blend the next day for a chilled smoothie :) Health point: Also courtesy of Conscious Life News, below are several options for the smoothie lover and their benefits. Pea...
