A lot of us remain on the move and rarely get a chance to sit down and have a good, solid, homemade meal. Let alone the best best kind, the kind made with love, from a loved one. The flavor in that favorite dish from childhood is something that we love to the point that it touches our hearts in a unique way, yet sometimes we let it fall to the back of our mind until we have the opportunity to t...

Much earlier this year I wrote a piece about Lost & Found , the third album from R&B artist Ledisi . When I caught wind of a Christmas album from her coming out this season (titled simply, It's Christmas ), I was seriously anticipating listening to it and loving it as much as her last album.
