Mommy Owned Business

Mocha Moms Give a warm welcome! to fellow  Mamapreneur Lorna Bradley of Majestic Delights

Q:. Why the baking business?

A:  I had no idea I was going to end up in the Cupcake Business. My mom loved to cook and is currently a caterer. I remember always being around for the baking part!

Q:  what is your creative process like?

A:  I have to be honest and say I am often clueless until I begin. I listen to what my clients want and I try embody that via cake. I try to be as personal as possible so no cakes, or cupcakes are ever really alike. I think that's why our menu can't stop growing.

Q:how do you come up with ideas that inspire you?

A: My partner Nathaly Rodriguez and I are very close so we spend a lot of time brainstorming ideas. We always like to try something new, and hopefully something no one else has thought of. When all else fails, PINTREST!


Q:what made you want to start your business?

A:I actually was encouraged by my church family (Faith Life International Church- Orange City, Fl) to start the business, after baking for a dear friend that was struck by lighting. I wanted to take something that was different and I haven't stopped baking since then, over two years ago.

Q:.who are your personal style icons and why?

A:This is the area that was the most challenging in my life. I did the normal mom move in forgetting yourself for the sake of your family. I have a great husband and six kids so in my mind there was no time to look for looking good. After meeting with my pastor (Pastor Gina Holmes) on day I gained an understanding that I can have a family AND fashion! My sister Tamara Craig and Stylist Sasha Ellis had a lot to do with my style as well. Oh, and I adore Jill Scott's style, she's so comfortable in her skin!


Q:.what's your favorite cd at the moment?

A:My current itunes playlist consist of Mali Music, Da. T.R.U.T.H. and Ne-Yo. I love music that make me feel good. I ALWAYS listen to music while baking.


Q:.what do you do when you feel like you have hit a creative roadblock?

A:I stop and go play with my kids, or go out to dinner with friends. Why waste time I could be using for something else. I have faith that it will come back to me before my deadline.

Q:.what's a typical day like for you

A:Up at 6 to study before the house moves, then wake up I first set of kids and get them out. After that I spend a little helping my teenager get out for school, and then baking. Depending what day it is anything can happen. Some weeks I'm at my church all the time, other weeks I sneek in a nap or two.


Q:.what's your favorite thing to do

A:WRITE! I am currently 100 pages into my first book. That has nothing to do with baking.

 Q:describe your artistic style

A:I'm all over the place, some days I love vintage, other days I'm all modern. I don't like being defined into one category.

 Q::what's the most difficult part of your business

A:Invoices! I hate to request payment. When I become a millionaire, I'm sure I will bake for free all the time. I have a friend in the financial business that literally had to make me get in line with receiving payments.

 Q:what's the best part of your business

A:Deliveries. I can never get enough of watching the happiness of others when I deliver food! It always amazes me that something that takes me about 30 minutes to make can can completely make someone's day.

 Q:what do you enjoy most about being an entrepreneur

A:Both of my parents were entrepreneurs (my dad a contractor and my mom a caterer. I never knew what it was like to be sick and not have my mom there, or have to plan a vacation around my dad's job. We would decided to go visit family and leave the same night. I knew it would be hard for me to ever work in corporate America after being raised this way. I love the freedom to be with my family. I love baking cookies and sitting with my kids to help with their homework everyday. I couldn't imagine raising them any other way.


 Q:where do you or what plans to you have for your business in the near future

A:Location, location LOCATION! We are planning to branch out locally and then internationally. My mom is from Jamaica and we would love to open a location there.

 Q:what's your advice to other women or mothers on balancing being a mom and running a business


A:There is no way I could do what I do in my own strength. I value my relationship with God more than the business or anything else. Because of the joy that I have in him, I have strength to balance the family and the business, without being competely stressed out. Also, two heads are always better than one, find a partner if possible. My partner Nathaly brought so much more to the table (she does most of the cake design, fondant is not my friend) and freed me up to do what I do best! BAKE!

Garcelle Beauvais’s Blog: Dating as a Single Mom

Best known for her roles on The Jamie Foxx Show and NYPD Blue, the actress, 45, just wrapped her second season on TNT’s Franklin & Bash. Mom to three sons — Oliver, 21, and 4½-year-old twins Jax and Jaid — Beauvais supports the Step Up Women’s Network and is also active with March of Dimes, Children Uniting Nations and Yéle Haiti Foundation. She can be found on Twitter @GarcelleB. In her latest blog, the actress writes about her experiences attempting to date as a single mom.

I was so touched by the wonderful feedback that many of you gave me on my last blog. I really appreciate your kind words, and I’m thrilled that sharing my experiences has helped those of you out there who are dealing with a similar situation. I really believe it’s important to make choices that are best for our individual circumstances, no matter what anyone else may think. So be true to your heart — because no one knows your situation the way you do. After becoming single again, I thought I should try to get back into the dating game. And I’m not gonna lie — I didn’t like it. There were several reasons. While I’m so grateful for the career and opportunities I’ve had, being in the public eye is tough because there is no mystery about who I am. After splitting from my ex, I went on a lunch date. I found it odd that this man just talked about himself. Then he said, “I know you’ve been going through a hard time.” Clearly, he had Googled my name. And yes, that gave him a chance to see pictures of me and to know what roles I’ve played. I’m sure he also read some gossip about me. And while whatever is online doesn’t begin to tell you the story of who I am — or who anyone is for that matter — he acted like he knew everything there was to know about me. It was weird. On another date, I had dinner with a nice enough man. But the next thing I knew, he called me and asked for my passport number so he could send a driver and surprise me with an international trip. Who does that?! I was blown away. We only went to one dinner! He was persistent, too! But I told him I couldn’t do that. I’m a mother — I can’t just disappear for weeks at a time with a stranger. As a public person, I can’t Internet date, either. Friends can set me up or I can meet people at events, but cyberspace mingling is out of the question. Some of my friends suggested that I go out with younger men — you know, give the whole cougar thing a try. And I did go out with a few young guys just to see what it would be like, but it didn’t feel right for me. Then I went out with someone way more famous than me. Of course, I won’t say who it is. We went on exactly one date, but you’d never know that if you saw the tabloids. The press treated it like we were practically registering for china! That can cause problems, too, because it could stop other people from asking me out if they think I’m taken. But these experiences actually helped me out, because I realized that I really wasn’t prepared to get involved with anyone. I sure as heck wasn’t ready to be intimate with someone, because I felt like I would cry through the whole thing. And that is definitely not sexy. Ha! So about a year ago, I decided to take myself off of the market, at least for the time being. Once I made this choice, I felt an immense sense of relief. I felt no pressure to fill the void of a romantic relationship with somebody new. I just wanted to work on myself and be the best mom I could be.

By taking that anxiety out of my life, it helped me feel completely relaxed, which has gotten me to a place of being open to meeting someone. While I’m not rushing to get back into another relationship, my heart is now much more open to it. But I do have some rules. When you come with children, it weeds out men who don’t want to deal with kids, which is fine by me. That goes in the plus column of being a single or divorced parent. My sons are my world. They come first. Honestly, I don’t want to introduce my kids to anybody, unless it is someone I have dated for a while and we have become serious about each other. I’ve seen many high-profile celebrities with young children go from one person to another, and I question that. As a parent, I think you need time to reflect. I feel you also need to make sure that your kids are doing well because it’s not just about you. After a breakup, they’re going through a loss as well. I don’t want my kids to think that people are disposable, and if a marriage doesn’t work out, bringing in new romantic partner right away may give off that impression. Time is needed for healing. And you have to ask yourself if it will hurt the kids to bring someone else into their lives too soon. For me, that answer is yes. To make this transition better for all of us, I’ve decided that — as I ease back into the dating scene — I will only do so during the times when Jax and Jaid aren’t with me. If I knew someone would be around for a while, and we dated for at least a good six months, then I would consider introducing him to my boys. But I would do it slowly and carefully. I recently attended a wedding where I sat at a table with a wonderful couple. They are so in love. After chatting with them for a while, the woman told me that she was a single parent with two children when she met her now-husband. They dated for 10 years, and he was never allowed to sleep at her house because she didn’t feel it was right for the kids. I was so impressed with her for taking such a strong stance on this. And I love that he respected her and the kids so much that he agreed to it! To me, that’s the gold medal of love. Do I get lonely? Yes. Do I want to eventually snuggle with someone who weighs more than 35 lbs? Absolutely! But I want to attract an emotionally healthy person, and I now know you have to be what you want to attract. And I’m getting closer to being that kind of person every day. The blessing of taking this time for myself has been that I’ve finally discovered my true self. And now that I have, I feel more confident about what I have to offer as a mother, friend, and future romantic partner.

Interview with Nicole Friday advice on balance and motherhood!!

lthough Nicole Parker and Boris Kodjoe juggle numerous commitments on top of parenting duties, they have not lost their passion for one another. While one would think that the ability to keep the sparks in a seven year marriage while parenting two children is nearly impossible, Boris and Nicole say prioritization holds their relationship together. Today's Top Post GALLERY: THE CANNON TWINS LIVE IT UP IN MOROCCO AND ITALY “It’s all about priorities,” says Boris to RollingOut.com. “We make sure that we put in some sexy time, and we go out on date nights and spend quality time together, because we were here first. Everything else is a reflection of that. If she and I are good, then everything else is good. So it’s very important that we put in the time to cherish each other.” In cherishing one another, Boris and Nicole find themselves loving parenthood even more. As Nicole explains, “Being a parent is the hardest job ever in life. Raising children uses every bit of your being — your heart, your time, your patience, your foresight, your intuition to protect them, and you have to use all of this while trying to figure out how to discipline them. But we’ve been married for seven years, and I think that the greatest challenge but also the greatest gift, is understanding that I’m way more capable than what I think I am. You have to work hard not to take your partner for granted, even when you are tired. We have a special needs child, so we also have to get up in the middle of the night and check on her. So, I’ve been pushed to the limits that I thought I had, and I’ve gone beyond those … that’s been the greatest gift throughout this journey with my husband.” Boris and Nicole have been journeying together in the entertainment industry for quite some time and have a formula when considering acting gigs. “We work really hard at making sure that our kids always have a sense of stability and routine, which means that when one of us is working, we try our best to make sure that the other is in place so that they can still go to school and do all of the things that they are accustomed to doing in their routine,” says Boris. The actor also states, “We also make sure that we visit each other. When Nicole is in London, I am going to make sure that I go and see her. And at the end of the year, we will take the kids over to see her and spend the final five or six weeks of her show together. When she was on Broadway, she would always fly home to see the kids if she had a day off, and to also spend time with me. So that’s how we try to keep things going … family comes first with us, so we’re going to do what we have to do to make this work.” “Our kids don’t know anything about Hollywood. They just know that sometimes Mommy and Daddy have to go away for work. And they know that if Mommy is gone, then Daddy is going to be there, and if I’m gone, then Mommy is going to be there … at least one of us is always there. We also take them with us at times. I took them to New York at least three times to see Nicole, and we stayed a few weeks. We take them backstage and on set so they can see what we do, but they don’t look at it as Hollywood. They just know that this is where Mommy and Daddy work,” adds Boris. In all of the glamor and glitz, Boris and Nicole are sure to remember their obligations at home because “family always comes first. We sit down together, and then we just weigh the pros and cons and figure out what ‘s best for the family. When you keep in mind what your priorities are, and for us it’s family, all of the other things just kind of fall into place.” Nicole and Boris live in Atlanta, Georgia with son Nicolas,5, and daughter Sophie,7.

Tamera baby Blog

Thanks for welcoming celebrity blogger Tamera Mowry-Housley! Best known for her roles on Sister, Sister and Strong Medicine, the actress currently stars on Tia & Tamera, airing Mondays at 8 p.m. on Style. She’s also working on a novel with twin sister Tia and recently wrapped filming on GMC’s Christmas Angel. Mowry-Housley, 34, wed FOX News correspondent Adam Housley in May 2011 in Napa Valley. Due Oct. 30 with their first child, the couple learned in June that they’re expecting a boy. You can find her on Twitter @TameraMowryTwo. My, how fast time flies! From the last time I’ve written to you all, much has happened. I can gladly say I have now learned to sift through all of the outside pregnancy advice and have found my OWN voice on the matter, which I will get into later. But most importantly, I am now saying hello to my third trimester! I am 31 weeks pregnant! I’ve gotta say, that went by fast. Bye-bye energy and hello to puffy pregnancy cheeks and swollen hands and feet. However, I have learned from a wonderful doula, Latham Thomas, that eating watermelon, grapes and cucumbers help bring the swelling down. Trust me, it works. Did I mention the pregnancy brain?! Man, the pregnancy brain is no joke. I have lost my car keys and house keys entirely. I have also lost my favorite diamond necklace from my teenage years and in some cases, my mind. Please don’t tell me I am alone in this. Am I the only pregnant woman out there who can’t speak coherently? My poor husband. There have been many occasions where he would stare blankly at me, wondering what the hell I was talking about. Helplessly, I couldn’t explain myself because most of the time, I didn’t even know what I meant to say — much less remember it. Anywho, I’m embracing my new body and its changes by constantly telling myself, “Chipmunk cheeks are cute, right?” RIGHT?! Additionally, I’ve been reciting, “My hubby loves a woman with curves.” Well, at least that’s what he told me when we first met. So what if my behind is spreading as wide as the continent of North America? But seriously, all jokes aside, I am so excited to be in the final stretch and couldn’t be more thrilled to meet our lil’ angel. My OB/GYN did say that as your pregnancy progresses, you will tend to sift out all outside advice and find yourself worrying less. I’ve found this to be true. Now don’t get me wrong, I still worry about my pregnancy, but not half as much I did before. I’ve gotten to this point by doing research of my OWN and just plainly standing still and looking within. I began asking myself important questions and allowing myself to answer honestly with no judgment. Here are some examples: What is my birthing plan? MINE — not my mom’s, sister’s or my friend’s. Do I want a midwife or doula? How do I envision myself giving birth: home or hospital? With or without an epidural? What kind of mom do I want to be? What kind of parenting style will I choose? There are so many endless decisions about pregnancy, birthing and a new baby. Just know it is okay to be afraid, to have concerns and have fears. Just allow them to arise and face them head-on. Please know that you are not alone. Women have been going through this process for years. Most importantly, it is key that you find your OWN voice and go from there. Once you do that, you can free yourself up for the fun part of your last trimester of pregnancy: attending your baby shower and setting up your baby’s nursery. I would love to hear your personal stories about how you have calmed the worried voices in your head. How have you examined all outside influences and ended up finding your own voice? Leave me a comment or Tweet me @TameraMowryTwo. Till next time, – Tamera Mowry-Housley More from Tamera on PEOPLE.com:

fun snacks

ANTS ON A LOG This is an oldie but goody. Spread peanut butter down the middle of celery stalks and line with raisins. Not only is the celery a fibrous foundation, but the peanut butter also packs a protein punch. It's also chock-full of healthy fats, and the raisins add natural sweetness. For a twist, use Nutella and golden raisins. Facebook Twitter Pin It!

fun snacks

FRUIT & VEGGIE SMILES Making fruit and veggies fun for kids increases their chances of eating them. And a great way is to let them take part in the creative process. My kids like making smiley faces with broccoli, kiwi, oranges and strawberries, but you can use anything you (or your tots!) like. Facebook Twitter Pin It!

fun snacks

PEANUT BUTTER POWER BRICKS What you need: 2 cups natural creamy peanut butter, 1 cup honey, 2 cups chocolate protein powder, 3 cups rolled oats. In a large mixing bowl, microwave honey and peanut butter for 1 minute, until liquid. Stir until blended, then mix in the protein powder and oats until coated. Spread in a 9-by-9-inch pan and place in the refrigerator; cut into "bricks" and serve chilled. This snack is a big hit in our family (OK, OK, I eat most of them). Facebook Twitter Pin It!

fun snacks

GRAPE CATERPILLAR Your kids will love using grapes and toothpicks to create these tasty treats. Just add yogurt or cream cheese with a sliver of olive or raisin to make the eyes. Even cooler? Take an apple and attach grapes to look like a worm is coming out. Facebook Twitter Pin It!

fun snacks

DEVILED EGG BOATS Talk about yummy and easy! Follow your fave deviled egg recipe (we add Greek yogurt to ours), then stick a cheese triangle on each toothpick and place in the center of each egg "boat." Our kids LOVE making these.

BAKED APPLE VOLCANOES Apples and berries go great together. Plus, they're both full of fiber and vitamins. You can core and bake your apples or slice and bake them. A quick 15 minutes in the oven at a preheated 350 degrees will produce a perfect baked apple, which brings out the fruit's natural sugars. Next, mix in some fresh berries and beet juice "lava" for added fun. Add a sprinkle of sea salt to bring out the sweetness.

fun snacks

FRUIT FLYING SAUCERS Crackers are OK for kids – in moderation. For a digestion-friendly option, use gluten-free crackers and spread on some cream cheese, then top with fruit or veggies. It's such a simple and tasty concept. Plus, once you give it a cool name, kids seem to like ‘em that much more!

healthy fun snacks

SPIDER PRETZELS Sandwich together a few gluten-free crackers with peanut butter and gluten-free pretzels. Add raisin eyes and you have a spooky snack sure to please. This is also a fun way to teach portion sizes to your little ones, as they will not be tempted to eat beyond the critter snack in front of them.

Happy Labor Day!!:))

Laila Ali may be a health guru, but eating right doesn’t come easy to the boxing champion and mom of two. Ali recently told BET that she has to work extra hard to keep in shape because she comes from a family of soulful eaters. “I’m naturally a big girl so I had to work hard to lose weight because my family is big boned. A lot of times women will say, ‘You look good,’ but they don’t know how much more work it takes.” The former boxer adds that it was especially hard to lose weight after her second child was born. Instead of attempting to lose the weight alone, Laila challenged her Facebook followers to diet and exercise with her in an effort to shed pounds. “I did a Facebook challenge to women. I was like, ” ‘Hey, I’m always talking about losing weight and what you need to do and now I need to do it too. So who wants to do it with me?’ I wanted to take that challenge to the people, let them see the weight come off and encourage them. I gave the information, tools and encouragement that they needed. I’m still not where I want to be. I’d love to be my fighting weight. But, for me, that’s just not realistic. I was working out three times a day to be that size, but working out was my job. I don’t have that type of time or commitment anymore. That’s 15 to 20 pounds lighter than I am now and I’m a 165 pounds. It’s just about accepting a realistic version of yourself and striving to be better. I like to eat, so…” Laila also gave insight into her decision to star on NBC’s new reality competition series Stars Earn Stripes, which airs Mondays at 9pm/8c on NBC. “I don’t have any regrets. It’s just that I’m a mom, I have young kids, so it was kind of scary doing the things I was doing.” Laila and husband Curtis Conway parent five children in all, though the couple only have two children together.

New Mommy book!!

Tia Mowry-Hardrict is a new mom and author of Oh Baby! Pregnancy Tales and Advice from One Hot Mama to Another. She recently gave insight into her new book and shared with YouTube fans her motivation for writing the pregnancy guide.
When asked about the basis of the book, Tia said, “Oh Baby! is basically a book about my journey being pregnant. I just wanted to share with all of the expecting moms out there what it’s like to be basically be pregnant.”

Although there are numerous books available that discuss pregnancy from a scholastic perspective, Tia “wanted to write something that was fun. I wanted to write something where you felt like you were talking to your girlfriend. I wanted to write something that was coming from a realistic perspective.”

Mowry hopes her book helps women who are pregnant for the first time and encourages new mothers to not lose their individualism. As she explains, “Just because you had a baby it doesn’t necessarily mean you have to lose your identity in who you were and are as a person.”

Oh Baby! will be available in local bookstores next month. Interested buyers looking to reserve a copy early should pre-order with Barnes & Noble Bookstores

and Jay-Z are now Mom and Dad!

The singer, whose pregnancy was closely watched and the subject of various rumors, delivered a baby girl in New York on Saturday, according to her hometown paper. Mom and baby are doing fine, the Houston Chronicle reports.

Sources tell E! News the little girl’s name is Blue Ivy Carter.

Apparently, she’s a looker. “The most beautiful girl in the world,” Beyoncé’s sister, Solange Knowles, Tweeted Sunday morning.

Friends of the superstar couple also used Twitter to offer public messages of congratulations:

“Welcome to the world princess Carter!” Rihanna Tweeted Saturday night. “Love Aunty Rih.”

“Welcome to the world Blue!” Gwyneth Paltrow wrote on her Twitter page Sunday morning. “We love you already.”

Russell Simmons also acknowledged the new parents on Twitter: “congrats to my good friends Beyonce and Jay-Z,” he said.

Beyoncé, 30, checked into Lenox Hill Hospital on New York’s Upper East Side on Friday, a month before her previously stated due date in February.

On Thursday, the singer was photographed out in the city covering her baby bump with a black blazer and a flowing scarf.

Despite buzz that the singer had given birth to a baby girl over New Year’s weekend, Jay-Z and an “enormously pregnant” Beyoncé were spotted enjoying a dinner on Dec. 31 at Buttermilk Channel in Brooklyn, N.Y.

The first-time mom announced she was expecting at the MTV Video Music Awards in August.

Reps for the couple did not respond to requests for comment.
