Look at this ‘lil Square Peg. Taking you back to the early 80s, Accra, Ghana, about 4 years old, wearing a shirt declaring my birth pecking order. Happy throwing it all the way back Jeudi. (Thursday en français)
Blogtober #21: Sci-Fi Square Peg.
Growing up, we enjoyed an interesting variety of tv shows in my household. My Dad was a big lover of classic comedies and shows, which meant plenty of I Love Lucy and Leave It to Beaver. And oh, the sitcoms. Too Close for Comfort, Three’s Company, 227. My mom, on the other hand, introduced us …

Blogtober #19: Geneva.
In 2004, I visited dear friends who lived in Pontarlier, France.

Blogtober #15: Abbey Road.
Five years ago today. In London, mid-autumn, travelista-ing, crossing the same road that one of my favorite musical groups walked on and named an album after. Yes, I squealed. Thanks to my beloved Daddy for introducing me to a love of traveling, of music, and of the Beatles. 💜
Blogtober #14: How Do you Sleep?
Photo by Ketut Subiyanto on Pexels.com I sleep with the television on. Yeah. So ever since I was a wee Square Peg, the quiet of night didn't sit well with me. I couldn't take it. Being a light sleeper since childhood, I can hear everything. Everything. (My Dad worked at night and loved to point …
Blogtober #13: Do Your Thing.
Since returning to my natural texture almost eight years ago (naturalversary is in December yay), I’ve had many, many, many hairstyles. Natural hair opened an experimentation door for me, undoubtedly; from varying lengths to color changes to everything in between, I managed to diffuse any boredom with styling and not shock my mother too much …
