HAPPY SUNDAY!!!
Had a bunch of cipollini onions left over from last week. Decided to carmelize them. I then added garlic, vegetarian parm, lemon juice, olive oil and heavy cream to make a sauce.
And yeah…I topped it with Scallion, Garlic, Parsley and Lemon King Crab just BECAUSE. 😉

SWAY wouldn’t let Me, Uzi and Ashley be GREAT! 🤣🤣🤣
How ’bout we tried to tell @realsway ” THIS IS A GIRLS ONLY PIC” but he said…”Naaaaw! H.B. I’m getting in this one with the LEGEND @msgladysknight 🤣🥰
Low key… I’m not even mad at him. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
****And just so yall know…The Amazing Ms. Gladys will be 80 May 28th.
We were all out last night CELEBRATING another LEGEND. MY (industry) Auntie 80th Birthday The. One. The ONLY. MS. PATTI LABELLE. 👑👑👑👑💐💐💐💐💐💐
CAN YALL IMAGINE GOD BLESSING YOU SO MUCH THAT YOU LIVE TO SEE 80 and LOOK THIS GOOD???
MORE PICS TO COME!
The more WISDOM GOD GIVES you…The more you realize the ONLY PERSON you really KNOW is YOU.
I had an epiphany this morning. GOD reminded me that, instead of moving forward aggravated, disappointed and/or upset with family members, friends, and folks that come in my sphere just THANK HIM for showing me what I needed to see: So I can now MOVE ACCORDINGLY.
The world is truly a circus, but you ain’t gotta be NOBODY’S clown.
AMEN!

GOD MORNING 🌄
Happy Hour Crew….ALLOW yourself to have the “CAPACITY FOR JOY” today.
Even if that means smiling right now and saying “THANK YOU GOD for waking me up TODAY.”
“ON THIS DAY, I have the opportunity to experience YOUR BLESSINGS AND WITNESS YOUR MIRACLES.” AMEN.
#THEHAPPYHOURWITHHEATHERB
#THANKYOUGOD
GOD MORNING 🌄
I NEEDED to REMEMBER THIS.
I’m not gon’ say I had a bad day yesterday, however it was challenging.
It was a day that satan KEPT reminding me “you deal with selfish, insecure, ungrateful and envious people.”
If my dad were alive he would’ve told me, “Yep! PEOPLE. SUCK.”
If my mom were, she would’ve simply reminded me, ” STOP being so giving to everyone .”
And if I had my grandmother (my dad’s mom) she would’ve said, ” Don’t get weary in WELL DOING.”
BEFORE prayer this morning , I woke up somewhere in between all 3.
Afterwards, GOD REMINDED ME that, “THIS IS THE DAY HE HAS MADE. SO REJOICE AND BE GLAD IN IT!!!”
Bottom line, some people can’t help themselves. Their issues were PRIOR TO YOUR PRESENCE.
We can’t let other people’s “stuff” get us out of ALIGNMENT with GOD’S DAY.
Not their day, but GOD”S DAY!!!
SO THANK YOU GOD FOR LISTENING.
THANK YOU FOR THE DO-OVER DAY.
I WILL REJOICE!
AND BE. GLAD. IN. IT!
AMEN.
#TheHappyHourwithHeatherB

GOD MORNING 🌄
Even when we aren’t….HE IS!!!
THAT ALONE is reason enough to be THANKFUL TODAY.
AMEN!

GOD MORNING 🌄
You know sometimes folks come with smiles, words, hugs, handshakes, daps, labels, bags and jewelry…and it’s ALL FAKE.
The heart NEVER LIES though.
I NEEDED this reminder today. 🙏🏾🫶🏾
AMEN
#THEHAPPYHOURWITHHEATHERB
#THANKYOUGOD
GOD MORNING 🌄
I’ve learned that “Being a Blessing to someone” most times has NOTHING to do with money.
Sometimes it’s a kind word.
A hug.
Sometimes it’s a smile.
A prayer.
Sometimes it’s providing an opportunity.
A reminder:
That it’s gonna be ok.
Sometimes it’s just listening.
I spent alot of years chasing what I thought I could get, only to find out what you give is way more significant.
I also learned that folks will definitely take advantage of your friendship, your kindness, your silence and your availability. So I’ve also learned to give with discernment.
It was hard to do, but NECESSARY.
This word today encouraged me to press on though.
To continue to be a CHEERFUL GIVER.
And to continue to give (as I can) without allowing it to be a burden on me.
Have a BEAUTIFUL DAY HAPPY HOUR CREW! And look for nothing in return, but GOD’S PEACE.
AMEN.
#TheHappyHourwithHeatherB

As I seek and make space for JOY today……There’s NOTHING like trying to get to your bag in NYC every morning. 😂

GOD MORNING 🌄
THE PROCESS.
I woke up today THANKFUL.
And UNDERSTANDING that you have to be willing to endure the process.
Up top is my first food IG post. A pot of chicken in June, 2013.
A Blurry pic at that. Lol 35 Likes. And all of 3 comments.
More was inside of me though.
I started talking to my mom. 🙏🏾😇
My grandmother.
My dad. 🙏🏾😇
My friends.
Other family members.
And asking them about food. Food that they love. Food that I made. Food that makes them happy.
I jumped ALL the way in.
The kitchen. The stores. The classes. The chefs. The books. The farms. The mess ups. The yums. The burnts. The yucks. The ALL. OF. IT!
I embraced it all.
Fast forward. April, 2024 my most recent.
Caramelized Onion pasta with vegetarian parm cheese. Top with Cipollini Onion, Garlic, and Lemon Butter King Grab.
MY GOD!
ELEVATION.
Thanks to THE PROCESS.
Beyond the immense amount of views, comments, emails and dm’s I marvel at what GOD has in store for us when we say YES and AGREE with HIS PURPOSE for our LIFE.
So if I can ENCOURAGE you today, STOP MAKING EXCUSES.
Your excuses will just continually EXCUSE YOU from attaining what lies ahead.
The process is WAITING.
AMEN!

AHHHH Memories 😊
Here’s a look back at how far we can come when we work hard and invest in ourselves!!!
2 years ago TODAY….. THIS was on the menu at class for a program I was taking at @iceculinary
Nevermind the fact that initially I couldn’t pronounce one blessed thing, I also dreaded the details of it all.
And WHO KNEW French Onion Soup was made with BEEF BROTH???
The first pic of my soup is what I made in class. I couldn’t try it though because it was made with beef.
The second one is what I made at home with veggie broth. Its now literally one of my FAVORITE DISHES PERIOD. And ain’t it PRETTY??? SOOOOO YUMMY TOO.
So if I can encourage you to go ahead and INVEST IN YOU! The time is going to pass regardless.
GOD IS SOOO AMAZING!!!
