Daddy's Girls: Episode 3 Recap

As you all may know, here at HGB, we love the Simmons Sisters. Vanessa and Angela are true examples of what and HGB Go-Getter is. This episode of Daddy's Girls touched on many topics such as respect, dependency, and consideration. I really enjoyed this episode, although it was very scripted, the show was still relatable...except for camping...I've never gone, my ideas of camping have been tainted thanks to Jason, Michael Myers, and the other weirdo killers.
Since Danielle, Angela's best friend from childhood, has moved into their home in LA its been nothing but drama. She is very inconsiderate and lacks respect for other people's property and space. Vanessa's toothpaste was minimal compared to her having her dog eat cheetos off of Jessica's bed...smh. Although she wasn't welcomed from the start, we will not play the blame game for who's fault it was for her leaving (her own). I think Danielle's "visit" taught valuable lessons, just because you are friends doesn't mean you can live with each other. I'm pretty sure their friendship will be stronger if she was back in New York, because she was beginning to cause tension between everyone in the house. Jessica was a little rude when she told her to sleep on the couch though...that was funny. Danielle also taught Angela that she needs to be more responsible and speak up instead of being deceitful and going behind people's back. I think if Angela was upfront and Danielle was more considerate she would've fit right in with the girls.

Angela and Vanessa's friend Lynn (not pictured) convinced the girls to go camping. Now Angela and Vanessa are truly Hollywood!!! Who packs a crimping iron and flat iron when they go camping in the woods? I was with Jessica like "where are you going to plug up your hair tools?" I just shook my head. Where's the bathroom? you have a plethora of trees to choose from. Oh, and who fries fish with a stick over an open flame? lol The cell phone scene was hilarious because I would be just like them, especially Angela with her salad and tent. This shows how dependant this generation is on technology. Some people are just not cut out for the frontier. Kudos to the people who actually go camping and love the great outdoors, but that's just not my cup of tea. Overall, I thought it was a pretty good show.

Tuesday

One Sunday In Brooklyn...

Its Sunday, and while we were walking along Vanderbilt Ave...we had to stop and take a pic not only of ourselves but of other hot tamales!
Boho Chic...Maire wore her maxi dress with a denim vest and fedora, while I paired mine with bold gold accessories and a burgundy clutch
She looked fabulous in one of the pieces that can be purchased at "Pieces of Brooklyn"
We featured her on our blog before...around Memorial Day. She has a totally different look! We walked up to her and asked to take a pic she said oh I think you guys asked me and my for a pic before...here she is in a 1940s style vintage dress with a vintage bike.
I went to JHS with Floyd...he's a blogger also for http://www.goodiesgotit.com/ check it out the blog is pretty dope so support the bloggers!
His t-shirt is fly with all of the great emcees
Didn't catch his name, but he stood out from the crowd also! Check out his blog
Dapper Don
So after the fashion show, we were starving. We got a bite to eat at Bob Law's Sea Food Cafe. The presentation was horrible and so were those canned mixed veggies, but the seafood platter (Fried whiting, catfish, shrimp, and crab cakes) was on POINT!!!
The prices were reasonable also. $12.99 for the platter with one side dish and $2 for the iced tea. So we paid about $15 each for a meal
So was the CORNBREAD! It was the best corn bread I ever had and my family is from the south so I know good cornbread when I taste it. It was moist and full of flavor, unlike that big brick you get from BBQs. If you want a quick bite to eat go to Bob Law's Sea Food Cafe. Oh yeah, get there home made Iced Tea...it is delicioso.
